Hi Chris, I know that this is late, but ...
The YANG packages draft (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-rwilton-netmod-yang-packages-01, but an updated version will be posted soon), is currently using the module-tags typedef to allow a package definition to contain a list of tags. E.g. module: ietf-yang-package +--ro yang-package +--ro name yang:yang-identifier +--ro version yang-sem-ver +--ro revision-date? yanglib:revision-identifier +--ro location* inet:uri +--ro description? string +--ro reference? string +--ro previous-version? yang-sem-ver +--ro tag* tags:tag +--ro referentially-complete? Boolean ... This package definition goes into an instance data document, for which the schema should just be ietf-yang-package, but by it importing ietf-module-tags.yang, it effectively also pulls in the "container module-tags" into the schema for the package definition, that I don't think should be there. If we keep package tags, then I think that there are two ways to fix this: (1) Split ietf-module-tags into an ietf-module-tags-types.yang and a ietf-module-tags.yang. But it would be very late to do this, and the packages draft isn't even a workgroup document at this stage. (2) Have the package draft define its own "package tag" typedef, and not have an import reference on module-tags at all. Probably if we do keep package tags, then we should also consider a mechanism by which they can be updated on a device equivalently to module tags. I'm currently thinking that the second choice might be a better approach at this time, but wanted to check whether you or the WG had an opinion.
