Hi Juergen,

YANG library currently defines the type "revision-identifer".  Is this a typedef that should logically migrate to rfc6991bis?

Thanks,
Rob

Does a percentage really need a single standard type in the first

At this point, after hearing about how different modules have
differing requirement on this type, I tend to agree.
+1

Or even "units %;"

     I guess we need to settle on a small number of percentage types that
     people find useful and then module authors hopefully find what they
     need. I am not sure that listing 101 numbers is a good pattern to use
     (although it does achieve what you want). For percentages that have no
     fraction, you likely want to derive from a base type that is efficient
     to encode for binary encodings such as CBOR.

Or simply define a type with a base type of unit8 type and a range of
0-100.
