Re: [lmap] LMAP: time to declare success ... ?

In this case, we need to know what the final NETCONF/RESTCONF
configuration model offers us. Kent Watsen (main author of the
relevant documents) is arguing that the client side configuration
coming out of the NETCONF WG should be a grouping that this grouping
should be instantiated in the contexts where client side configuration
is needed. I think he does have a point there and if this is the final
result, we would have to instantiate this grouping somewhere in an
LMAP configuration YANG module (I was hoping we would not need that
but Kent might be right).

Since the stuff we depend on is not yet stable nor settled, I think we
should not move the wait state to the RFC editor queue. I am somewhat
optimistic that the NMDA work is done by IETF 101 and this may help
getting back to the other work items. That said, the NETCONF/RESTCONF
configuration work is generally not seen as the most pressing work in
the NETCONF WG so I would not make any predictions when this might be
stable enough to complete the LMAP work item.

I had one that waited well over a year. Is there anything that is keeping this draft from having publication requested, and then just waiting? That is, do we think the work on the dependencies has a significant probability of either never being done or resulting in substantive changes to this draft?

We may be able to do it without keeping the WG active. If the WG closes, my preference would be OPSAWG rather than Independent Stream.
