Re: [netconf] Adoption-suitability for draft-unyte-netconf-udp-notif

Hi,

I am trying to understand the NETCONF WG plan for UDP transport of
notifications.

The WG was developing a UDP draft already I think, and it was dropped.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-netconf-udp-pub-channel-05

Since the WG dropped this problem and work item already, why should it
reverse that decision
and start over with a new solution?
