Re: [Netconf] Editorial change-2 for draft-ietf-netconf-nmda-netconf

[Juergen Schoenwaelder <[e-mail]>]

Yes, for bgp there is no namespace defined in the example in RFC
8342. Using ietf-netconf-nmda clearly is misleading, a fictional
example namespace will be better.

I think the lexical representation of the value 'intended' requires to
be namespace qualified, i.e. 'ds:intended'.

The with-origin is defined to be of type empty - there is no 'true'
value or something like that, its just <with-origin/>.
