After some searching, I concluded that no such types have been defined, and thus thought that they might be good candidates for addition. We could defined a user-name, of the form localpart@domainpart as is widely used to identify a user in operations but which does not, in my experience, owe anything to i18n, just a straightforward character set; yes it would not boil the ocean, but could be useful. I am surprised not to find such a definition somewhere in our 40 or so NETCONF I-Ds. Tom Petch > > > > It would be good to have strong use cases.
