Thank you, Bill, for bringing RFC 4151 to our attention.  Helen, the author of 
the drafts in question, also agrees that the ‘tag’ scheme addresses the need.  

Given these circumstances, we consider the matter settled and, contrary to the 
NETMOD 97 minutes, we will not issue a call for adoption for 
draft-chen-rdns-urn and draft-chen-netmod-enterprise-yang-namespace.

One thing, there is a request to add a reference to RFC 4151 into rfc6087bis if 
possible.  rfc6087bis is currently in AD Evaluation state, so there may still 
be an opportunity to do this.

Thanks,
Kent // as co-chair
