This is a procedural question (i.e., nothing the ID will regulate) and
ideally the WGs involved come to some common understanding how we
handle things in the future. One option is that NETMOD agrees to take
care of CBOR as a third encoding in the future like it does take care
of XML and JSON today. What I like to avoid is that YANG evolves and
the various encodings start to work with different subsets of YANG.
