Hi Kent,
thank you for your comments!
Regarding example, yes, I agree, we need to add examples and will do so
in the next revision.
Per your suggestion, I looked again at the 103 minutes. They do state
that we should come up with a single format, hence the option to select
from different formats has been removed. Now, which specific format
to select is the topic of the discussion items in the Juergen's and
Andy's emails from Nov 6. This concerned the question whether the diff
was to be computed against the tree, vs a textual representation of the
tree, and if the latter, what the serialization would be. If I interpret
the sentiment in those emails correctly, the sentiment is that the diff
should be computed against the tree. This is what is reflected in the
current revision; the representation of differences leverages YANG-Patch
(RFC 8072) and the "source-value" element extrapolates this to include
the source values. Of course, we can consider alternatives; this is one
proposal.
The other item that was raised concerns whether to include diff'ing on
metadata. Whether this is needed probably requires further discussion.
Personally, I think this is a useful feature but it has not been
included in this revision.

It's great to see activity on this draft. However, authors should
close open items on list before posting updates. Specifically, there
are open items from the adoption-poll, the 103 meeting minutes, and
the emails Andy and Juergen sent on Nov 6.
PS: as a contributor, the update seems incomplete without an example
illustrating the new 'source-value' element.

Hello Netmod WG,
we have just posted a new revision of draft-ietf-netmod-nmda-diff.
The new revision adds the inclusion of the both the source and target
values to the result of the comparison; for this purpose, the
YANG-Patch grouping was augmented accordingly.
