I should clarify this comment.
NETCONF was last published in June 2011 so it is not unreasonable to
do a new version.  But all protocol features should be on the table.
There is a list (in case you have an important feature to add to the list)

https://github.com/netconf-wg/rfc6241bis/issues

If the scope is just support for revised datastores, then than can go in
its own RFC.
If the scope is applying the lessons we have learned since June 2011 to make
NETCONF much better, then 6241bis is appropriate.

RESTCONF was published a month ago so a new version should not be in scope.
