Ah, okay.  But the current draft looks quite awkward to me even if
it's not incorrect, having just one XML example.  Hopefully future
versions have more XML examples corresponding to each modeling
definition.  Also, understanding the evolution of the document from
full-XML to YANG+XML, it would be more helpful to explicitly clarify
YANG is used for modeling.

BTW, another minor comment: in Section 2.1.13 the "RollType" leaf node
is used, but there's no description for it in the list at the end of
the section.  I'm not sure if it's intentional, but it generally seems
to try to provide a comprehensive list of descriptions, so I guess
this is probably overlooked.
