Dear all,
From the initial problem statement:
During a WG adoption poll we have received a comment that the URL
should be added in the reference statement when importing a YANG
module maintained by IANA
The important question to me is: is this reference text supposed to be
read by a machine or a human?
It seems to me that the answer is "a human".
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6020#section-7.19.4
If this is true, why do we care about having a URL in there?
Regards, Benoit

Hi all,
Happy New Year
During a WG adoption poll we have received a comment that the URL

See:

I have checked RFC8407 but I have not found any guideline on what to
reference when importing an IANA module
I have checked a couple of examples I knew (RFC8343 and RFC8348) and
noted that the IANA modules are imported with no reference
I have also noted that within the IANA YANG model registry, the
reference for the IANA modules is the RFC where the module has been
initially defined:
_https://www.iana.org/assignments/yang-parameters/yang-parameters.xhtml_
<https://www.iana.org/assignments/yang-parameters/yang-parameters.xhtml>
What would be your suggestion?
Are there any guidelines I have missed?
Do you know if there are other examples of published RFCs importing an
IANA module?
Thanks in advance
Italo
