SMIv2 and SMIv1 are both INTERNET STANDARD.

SNMPv1 was not obsoleted but eventually declared HISTORIC many years
later.

YANG 1.1 has no defined relationship to YANG 1.0

I think it unusual for Version N+1 to do anything other then coexist
with Version N.  Sometimes there is another document that spells it out,
such as RFC3584 for SNMP or 6087bis for YANG but a user might never know
of them (well, quite a few do not judging by the posts).
