Additional comments/suggestions

Milestones
To be consistent, we should have at least a milestone for each of the
larger sections. There is a couple missing:
- TE section - suggest March 2025
- Privacy and Security section - suggest Nov 2025 or March 2026

Format
To be consistent with other sections, we should have "Yang Model:" format.

Ordering
I would not propose to order as sections matching the milestones as
sections may have different documents at different maturity levels.
However this one caught my attention: should we move up "NAT transversal"
section  to after "Yang Model:" as it is in March 2024.

Thanks
Padma
