I am sorry for bringing this up.

I just grep'ed through about 1000 YANG modules to do a guestimate of the
prefix usage,
looking for "meaningful" prefixes.

It is not that consistent across SDOs. IMO BBF is the best (by far).
The IETF has the most 2-letter prefixes.
DOTS and TE have structured prefixes (about 7 - 12 chars).
IMO these are good examples for new YANG modules.

The most important property is that the prefix is meaningful.
