The netmod YANG versioning design team has updated the requirements draft based on comments received at IETF 102 as well as some individual discussions. Highlights include:
* Definition of "non-backwards-compatible" * Clarification on what clients should do with backwards-compatibly changed instance data * Reworded requirement 1.2 to avoid needless client work for unchanged nodes or nodes that were changed in backwards-compatible ways * New requirement 1.4 for supporting over-arching software releases Joe (on behalf of the DT) -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: New Version Notification for draft-verdt-netmod-yang-versioning-reqs-01.txt Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2018 10:50:23 -0700 From: internet-dra...@ietf.org To: Joe Clarke <jcla...@cisco.com> A new version of I-D, draft-verdt-netmod-yang-versioning-reqs-01.txt has been successfully submitted by Joe Clarke and posted to the IETF repository.
