Hi, I think it is very unfortunate that OpenConfig folks use POSIX regular expressions instead of XSD. This of course causes confusion, see e.g. this PR:
https://github.com/CZ-NIC/yangson/pull/22 Given the popularity of OpenConfig models, it seems to me that it would be better if YANG somehow accomodates such (largely cosmetic) differences. One option would be that each YANG module declares the regex flavour used in its patterns. Yes, it is a complication, but having separate forks of YANG is much worse. ISO Schematron adopted a similar approach with "query language binding" that can be declared with the schema element, for example <schema xmlns="http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/schematron"; queryBinding="exslt"> Any thoughts on this?
