Re: [802.3_YANG] Changes to 802.3 modules in light of IETF actions

Are there any other (equally dramatic) changes planned for YANG itself? That is a major overhaul to the module structures and likely place for pitfalls

(Speaking as a yang doctor)

 

Yes, you should conform to the nmda guidelines that you cite below to collapse all config-state leafs into a single container and deprecate or remove all state containers. 

 

Thanks.

All (but mostly to Rob W),

It is my understanding that IETF recently took a decision to change how NETCONF/RESTCONF handles datastores for YANG models. New models no longer separate configuration and state trees and existing models should deprecate state trees and move their contents to a combined configuration/state tree (see links copied below)

Do we need to make any modifications to our modules in light of the recent actions of IETF to combine configuration and state trees?
