I assume you mean to use the status-stmt to transition from current ->
deprecated -> obsolete
in an orderly fashion. Especially since sec 11 is very clear:
Obsolete definitions MUST NOT be removed from published modules,
since their identifiers may still be referenced by other modules.

I strongly object to this WG creating an "adjusted YANG 1.1" standard.
IMO there is no need or WG consensus to create any sort of replacement for
RFC 7950.
If YANG 1.1 needs non-backward-compatible changes (which it doesn't IMO)
then a new
YANG 2.0 RFC must be written to accomplish that.
It is possible to introduce support for NBC changes in a way that does not
change YANG 1.1
at all. E.g.:
Rule 1 of 1:
- If any change is made that violates a MUST or MUST NOT provision of RFC
7950,
sec. 11, then the major revision number in the semver string MUST be
incremented.
