1) With regard to the ip-address-no-zone discussion, it is the chair's 
understanding that there is NO CONSENSUS either way.  That is, the two sides 
have equal support.  However, the WG must make progress and the chairs feel 
that the safest course of action is to make no change, effectively kicking the 
proverbial can down the road (a future rfc6991-bis-bis can pick it up).

2) With regards to the [date/time]-[with/no]-zone, in 
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/netmod/PGFFlBm-oT8OVSKvzHuXmtHPBfM/, it 
seems that Randy and I agreed that having it be a conscious/explicit selection 
by module designers is goodness.  Should there be an update to the draft to 
rename "date" to "date-with-zone" *and* rename "time" to "time-with-zone"?

Sorry, but going back to (1), IDK if it was discussed, but would it make sense 
to move towards the kind of ip-address be explicit also?  That is: 1) add 
"ip-address-with-zone" and 2) deprecate "ip-address"?  This way no break in 
backwards compatibility and yet paves the way for a future NBC change?   
Followed later with, e.g.,  an alias for "ip-address-no-zone" to be 
"ip-address" (similar to OpenConfig)?

3) There was also a discussion regarding a "language" tag that ended here: 
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/netmod/aYthsN4MhsjclIqzfvxz9ak1Gpw/.  I 
don't see a conclusion to this discussion.   Did another WG meanwhile publish a 
definition and so the time-utility window for NETMOD to act has since passed?
