Hi Donald,

I agree with Joe. While the text may be difficult to parse, management protocol 
is more than a data model. It includes NETCONF, RESTCONF, SNMP, etc. If you can 
think of another way to describe “management-protocol-sense,” we can discuss it.

I will, therefore, proceed to reject this erratum.
