I support the adoption of this draft as WG document

I think the scope of the draft/model can also be extended to be applicable to 
any service-type module and not being limited to only L2VPN and L3VPN. For 
example we can call it svc-common rather than vpn-common.

Regarding the approach, my preference is to include in the common module all 
the types/groupings which are common.

In order not to delay the progress of L3NM, it is possible to follow the same 
approach that has been followed in CCAMP WG with layer0-types: once L3NM is 
ready for WG LC, it is possible to move forward for WG LC only the common 
types/groupings which are needed by L3NM (as first revision of the common YANG 
module) and to move the types/groupings needed by other on-going work (e.g., 
L2NM) into a new draft which is intended to become a second revision of the 
common YANG module.

A point to be aware of is that there are rules about what you can and cannot do 
when revising a YANG module.  RFC7950 s.11 has a long list thereof of which 
those relating to enum and type have come up in the past.  If you want to do 
something that is not permitted, then you have to change the module name, which 
would seem to defeat the purpose of this particular exercise so it is important 
to get it right first time..
