Hi CCAMP, 

in March we received a liaison from ITU-T (https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1564/) in reply to our previous communication on our intention to work on the YANG module for alarms  (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ccamp-alarm-module-01).

Stefan and Martin provided replies to the comments received (see below). We would like to reply to the liaison with their comments, our plans to progress the draft and inviting the ITU-T representatives to further discuss the draft on the CCAMP mailing list.

Thanks
Daniele & Fatai
