Hi Kent, Michael,

Re:

No, but if there are simple/quick changes that we can make to the NETCONF draft 
to make it more reusable then I think that is a good thing.

In this case, I think that this should come down to the discretion of the 
sZTP-CSR authors, given that BRSKI-AE also have the choice of just copying the 
YANG that they need.

I would be okay seeing the csr structure put into a grouping, but I would 
strongly prefer that they get moved out of the ietf-sztp-csr.yang module, so 
that the CSR groupings can be imported without requiring any import-only import 
dependency on ietf-sztp-csr (and possibly ietf-sztp-bootstrap-server).

Hence, my suggestion, if you were to do this, would be for a separate 
ietf-csr-types.yang module defined as part of the SZTP-CSR draft.

Thanks,
Rob

Understood.

If we can do this at this point, that would I think, be best for all of us.

If it's just at AD, then it hasn't gotten IESG reviews yet, and there could
be many weeks of back and forth yet to go.

The horse trading shouldn't take more than 30 minutes of real-time
discussion, maybe way less.
