Hi Kent,
Below, you seemed to suggest also removing the WG Chair from the contact
information, but it wasn't in your example update. I would support
removing it since I'm not sure that listing the WG chair(s) is that
useful. Presumably it is more desirable that any comments/questions go
to the WG list or authors.
Thanks,
Rob

Lou and I were looking a draft today and were wondering if the YANG
Module Template in 6087bis makes sense. Here’s the template:
contact
"WG Web: <http://tools.ietf.org/wg/your-wg-name/>
WG List: <mailto:[email protected]>
WG Chair: your-WG-chair
<mailto:[email protected]>
Editor: your-name
<mailto:[email protected]>";
6020 says:
The "contact" statement provides contact information for the module.
The argument is a string that is used to specify contact information
for the person or persons to whom technical queries concerning this
module should be sent, such as their name, postal address, telephone
number, and electronic mail address.
6087biz says:
The contact statement MUST be present. If the module is contained in
a document intended for Standards Track status, then the working
group web and mailing information MUST be present, and the main
document author or editor contact information SHOULD be present. If
additional authors or editors exist, their contact information MAY be
present. In addition, the Area Director and other contact
information MAY be present.
It seems that our primary goal is to have questions directed to the
working group. Does it really make sense to have chairs or ADs
listed? That said, we understand listing authors, as they’re listed
in RFCs too.
One related nit, is the “WG” acronym widely known enough to use it in
the template? How the following instead?
OLD
contact
"WG Web: <http://tools.ietf.org/wg/your-wg-name/>
WG List: <mailto:[email protected]>
NEW
contact
"Web Page: <http://tools.ietf.org/wg/your-wg-name/>
Mailing List: <mailto:[email protected]>
Kent (and Lou)
