>>>>>>>>>>>> Description of Working Group:
>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>     The Network Modeling (NETMOD) working group is
>>>>>>>>>>>> responsible for the YANG
>>>>>>>>>>>>     data modeling language, and guidelines for developing
>>>>>>>>>>>> YANG
>>>>>>> models.
>>>>>>>>>> The
>>>>>>>>>>>>     NETMOD working group addresses general topics related
>>>>>>>>>>>> to the use of
>>>>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>>>>>>     YANG language and YANG models, for example, the
>> mapping
>>>>>>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>> YANG
>>>>>>>>>>>> modeled
>>>>>>>>>>>>     data into various encodings.  Finally, the NETMOD
>>>>>>>>>>>> working
>>>> group
>>>>>>>>>>>>     also defines core YANG models used as basic YANG
>>>>>>>>>>>> building blocks,
>>>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>>>>>>>     YANG models that do not otherwise fall under the
>>>>>>>>>>>> charter of any
>>>>>>>> other
>>>>>>>>>>>>     IETF working group.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>> The NETMOD WG is responsible for:
>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>     a) Maintaining the data modeling language YANG.  This
>>>>>>>>>>>> effort
>>>>>>>> entails
>>>>>>>>>>>>        periodically updating the specification to address
>>>>>>>>>>>> new
>>>>>>>> requirements
>>>>>>>>>>>>        as they arise.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>     b) Maintaining the guidelines for developing YANG models.
>>>>>>>>>>>> This
>>>>>>>> effort
>>>>>>>>>>>>        is primarily driven by updates made to the YANG
>>> specification.
>>>>>>>>>>>>     c) Maintaining a conceptual framework in which YANG
>>>>>>>>>>>> models are
>>>>>>>>> used.
>>>>>>>>>>>>        This effort entails describing the generic context
>>>>>>>>>>>> that in
>>>>>> YANG
>>>>>>>>>>>>        exists and how certain YANG statements interact in
>>>>>>>>>>>> that
>>>>>>>> context.
>>>>>>>>>>>>        An example of this is YANG's relationship with
>> datastores.
>>>>>>>>>>>>     d) Maintaining encodings for YANG modeled data.  This
>>>>>>>>>>>> effort
>>>>>>>> entails
>>>>>>>>>>>>        updating encodings already defined by the NETMOD
>>>>>>>>>>>> working (XML
>>>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>>>>>>>        JSON) to accommodate changes to the YANG
>>>>>>>>>>>> specification, and
>>>>>>>>>> defining
>>>>>>>>>>>>        new encodings that are needed, and yet do not fall
>>>>>>>>>>>> under the
>>>>>>>> charter
>>>>>>>>>>>>        of any other active IETF working group.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>     e) Maintaining YANG models used as basic YANG building
>>>> blocks.
>>>>>>>> This
>>>>>>>>>>>>        effort entails updating existing YANG models
>>>>>>>>>>>> (ietf-yang-types
>>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>>>>>>>        ietf-inet-types) as needed, as well as defining
>>>>>>>>>>>> additional core
>>>>>>>> YANG
>>>>>>>>>>>>        data models when necessary.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>     f) Defining and maintaining YANG models that do not
>>>>>>>>>>>> fall under
>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>>>>>>        charter of any other active IETF working group.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>     The NETMOD working group consults with the NETCONF
>>>> working
>>>>>>>>> group
>>>>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>>>>>>     ensure that new requirements are understood and can be
>>>>>>>>>>>> met by
>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>>>>>>     protocols (e.g., NETCONF and RESTCONF) developed within
>>>>>>>>>>>> that
>>>>>>>>> working
>>>>>>>>>>>>     group.  The NETMOD working group coordinates with other
>>>>>>>>>>>> working
>>>>>>>>>> groups
>>>>>>>>>>>>     (e.g., I2RS, RTGWG) on possible extensions to YANG to
>>>>>>>>>>>> address
>>>>> new
>>>>>>>>>>>>     modeling requirements and, when needed, which group
>>>>>>>>>>>> will run
>>>>> the
>>>>>>>>>>>>     process on a specific model.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>     The NETMOD working group does not serve as a review
>>>>>>>>>>>> team for
>>>>>>>>> YANG
>>>>>>>>>>>>     modules developed by other working groups. Instead, the
>>>>>>>>>>>> YANG
>>>>>>>>>> doctors,
>>>>>>>>>>>>     as organized by the OPS area director responsible for
>> network
>>>>>>>>>>>>     management, will act as advisors for other working
>>>>>>>>>>>> groups and
>>>>>>>> provide
>>>>>>>>>>>>     YANG reviews for the OPS area directors.
