Hello Andy,

One thing that is not quite clear in RFC6020 due to not being clear what
'supported module' means.

Should deviations be applied in case a module is advertised, but is not
mentioned in a deviations parameter like this:

   <hello xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
       <capability>
         http://example.com/syslog?module=syslog
       </capability>
       <capability>
         http://example.com/my-deviations?module=my-devs
       </capability>
     </hello>

If not, does this imply that any deviation statement targeting an
external module, which does not have a matching deviations parameter
should silently be ignored?

Thanks,
Robert
