The I-D talks about tags for YANG _modules_, you are talking about tags for YANG data nodes and you seem to imply that these tags are associated to instance data and that they can be used in protocol operations. (And then I note we already have metadata that can be associated to instance data. And there was Andy's packages work, which can be seen as another way to tag collections of schema nodes.) So yes, there is a need to agree on what the problem is that is to be solved (and to consider how solutions fit into the framework we already have in place). /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder Jacobs University Bremen gGmbH Phone: +49 421 200 3587 Campus Ring 1 | 28759 Bremen | Germany Fax: +49 421 200 3103 <https://www.jacobs-university.de/> _______________________________________________ netmod mailing list netmod@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/netmod
