A few notes:

- The document talks about a 'node ID' in several places but never
  defines this concept nor does it explain how these node IDs are
  created.

- Your ID should normatively depend on YANG 1.1 and cover all the YANG
  1.1 constructs, that is, include anydata.

- I am not sure I understand the anyxml encoding.

- I guess I am having an issue with yet another ad-hoc namespace
  notation invention in 3.1.7. YANG type: identityref. Why not use the
  <module>:<identifier> notation used by the JSON encoding?

- The document confuses YANG types and YANG data node definition
  statements. I suggest to follow the structure of
  draft-ietf-netmod-yang-json-06.txt.
