Hi Jari,

Let me open the discussion.
What is important at this point in time is the coordination of those 
YANG models.
All of them come at the same time, and this required some urgent attention.
Focusing on the routing YANG models with "Rtg-yang-coord@ietf.org" 
<Rtg-yang-coord@ietf.org> 
<https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/rtg-yang-coord> is a step in the 
right direction. Indeed the community needs to agree on how to model 
IGPs, BGP, the topology, etc...
However, the coordination should also occur with the data models 
developed in other IETF WGs. And the IETF might need to reach out to 
different SDOs/consortia.
As the operators told me: we can't afford to develop those data models 
independently from each others.

Regards, Benoit
