Hi Tom,
> Yes I do think that people outside the IETF may be ignorant of the nuances of the way the IETF works and  may not realise that a URL to the IANA website must be used in preference to an RFC.  There is more to YANG modules than extracting the code from somewhere in order to incorporate it into something.  I have even seen RFC reference the obsolete list of possibilities  in the RFC that set up an IANA registry
If this is the case (And Randy supports this), then we should update RFC 
8047.

Regards, B.
