Chris,

nobody (I think) is having an issue with the lne and ni models. And it
is great to hear that you have implemented them. However, please also
understand that schema mount is a rather fundamental extension of the
YANG technology and that people maintaining that technology and
writing generic tools need to have this extension work together with
other extensions we have been working on. For you, this may be
irrelevant or not important and it may be 'divorced from your "get
shit done" reality'. But then, please accept that there are other
communities with different priorities.

I believe we will be more effective if we find a way forward that can
work for everybody involved. Trying to convince other communities that
their priorities are plain wrong is neither constructive nor does it
lead to faster progress I think.
