Putting the ephemeral question aside for a moment, and focusing on extensions. The original intention with the extension statement was that they could be used for normative semantics, which is also evident from NACM and ietf-system etc. So if the text is unclear in this regard, we should clarify this. Juergen already provided text. > Extensions are fine for proprietary usage, but not standards. 6020 says: YANG is an extensible language, allowing extension statements to be defined by standards bodies, vendors, and individuals. It is pretty clear that the intention was not that this is for vendors only. /martin _______________________________________________ netmod mailing list netmod@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/netmod
