Many of us may remember a vaguely similar effort that we worked on in the late 1990's for a common LDAP schema for configuration (and lease data, as I recall) for DHCPv4 servers. From those discussions, I understand the problems associated with a common configuration schema which tends to infringe directly upon implementation details.  Although I hope to avoid those sticky problems again, I would still welcome comments on this draft, and to consider if the WG should take this as an action item.

I suggest you take a look at RFC 4741 and the YANG work currently last
called in the NETMOD WG if you want to push this work forward in the
IETF.
