Does the AD see an issue with the proposed text? [RW]
I apologise if you felt that I was trying to assert authority here, that was not my intent. My aim was to be clear in what capacity I was commenting, but my efforts may have been clumsy. Also, at the point that I wrote my email, I had not seen that you had sent proposed errata text, which I will comment on separately on that thread. There is also an underlying background here is that the IESG is currently working on refining the rules for how errata are processed (e.g., it was discussed in yesterday's telechat). And until those guidelines settle, which hopefully shouldn't be long, I'm not quite sure which way this errata would land, i.e., verified, hold for update, or rejected. My specific concern is whether it was clear at the point that consensus was called on RFC 7950 that everyone had the same interpretation of the expected behaviour, even if that wasn't clear in the text. I also note that draft-ietf-netmod-yang-module-versioning-02 states: This document updates [RFC7950] section 11. Section 3 describes modifications to YANG revision handling and update rules, and Section 4 describes a YANG extension statement to do import by derived revision. So, I'm still of the opinion that clarifying this behaviour in draft-ietf-netmod-yang-module-versioning-02, if the proposed change cannot be accepted as a verified errata, is a pragmatic solution.
