Re: [CCAMP] [inventory-yang] poll for network inventory base model

["Wubo (lana)" <[e-mail]>]

Hi Qiufang, Daniele, all,

I voted for option 3. As I read the whole draft of option 1, the content is very hardware-centric. I think the attributes of physical and virtual devices, or the attributes of software and hardware components, are quite common and can be shared rather than augmentation.

I believe the inventory base model is a generic model, not limited to hardware inventory.

Thanks,
Bo Wu

Hi Working Group,

It's now time to start considering how to move forward with the inventory base model. We have two different documents that could be used as a starting point for our work or, in case the working group believes none of them is "good enough", we can start a brand new ID.
In case the latter option is chosen, Daniele and I will write a -00 version including just the table of content and what we'd like to be covered in each section. The document will then be handed over to a pool of authors which will bring it till the WG adoption.

Hence, we will have a 3 weeks polling starting today. We decided to make it a bit longer than usual because this time the working group is requested to review two drafts instead of one.

This mail starts a 3 weeks polling, terminating on September 15th,  where we would like the working group to express your preference among:

1.       Adopt  draft-ietf-ccamp-network-inventory-yang-02 in IVY and evolve it to become the network inventory base model
2.       Adopt draft-wzwb-opsawg-network-inventory-management-03 in IVY and evolve it to become the network inventory base model
3.       Start a brand new document from scratch as described above

In the week after the closure of the polling (between September 18 and 25) we will have an IVY interim meeting to discuss the issues/concerns raised during the polling ( A separate mail will be sent).

Thank you,

Qiufang and Daniele
