Hi Juergen,

My intention is only to get clarity about what is the meaning of implementing a module in a data-store, as it used in below places,

" It must be possible to NOT implement a module or feature in
       <operational>, even if it is implemented in some other datastore"

"   2.  A dynamic configuration datastore must be able to implement a
       module or feature that is not implemented in the conventional
       configuration datastores."

A module having only "ro" nodes , can be considered to be implemented in any data-store ? operational/ephemeral etc
A module having "rw" nodes,  what is the rules for it to be considered implemented in a data-store ?

RFC 7950 is quite clear for the rules for when a module is considered implemented. Please clarify implementation with respect to data-store also.

With Regards,
Rohit R Ranade

The server implemented an empty set of objects. No client should have an issue with that and a server may choose to report this (for example if the server wants to have a single schema for all datastores).

I do not see why making this illegal would simplify anything. It seems making this illegal just adds complexity for no value.
