Hello
As part of a recent IESG review (of draft-bfd-yang) a point came up on
the use of "iana" in yang modules' name/namespace/prefix.
This is typically used in the case where the module refers to an IANA
maintained registry. However, the point raised was that the name of the
registry operator might not always be IANA, and that using that name
might not put modules on the most stable deployment footing under all
possible circumstances.
On top of that, as far as I can tell, the use of "iana" is an
undocumented convention.
So, I wanted to collect views:
on whether a convention should be documented,
and, with regards to the point raised in IESG, on whether that keyword
should be changed going forward. In that context, what about "reg" (for
registry) or "regop" (for registry operator)? Other proposals are welcome.
Thanks
