Hi Kent, Lou,

I think that it might possibly be a good idea to please align the 
timelines for:

   draft-ietf-netmod-intf-ext-yang
   draft-ietf-netmod-sub-intf-vlan-yang

because I think that it will be somewhat helpful to review both 
documents together.

Also, I just wanted to confirm that the datastore work is covered by 
this text:

    c) Maintaining a conceptual framework in which YANG models are used.
       This effort entails describing the context that network management
       protocols (e.g., NETCONF, RESTCONF, CoAP, etc.) operate in, and
       how certain YANG statements interact in that context.

Thanks,
Rob
