Re: [netmod] New Version Notification for draft-kwatsen-netmod-artwork-folding-07.txt

Hi Tom,

As contributor, I agree with you.  The only reason that it is here
now is because draft-wu-netmod-yang-xml-doc-conventions did.

As chair, let me discuss with my co-chairs.  Meanwhile, would love
to hear others opinions.

Stepping back, I think that there is a problem of applicability.

You have labelled this I-D draft..netmod.. and are discussing it on the
netmod WG list.  Therefore I apply it to YANG I-D - to me, that is the
obvious connection - and the problem I keep seeing with YANG I-D is
lines too long - comment, description - in the YANG module so that is
the problem for which I want a solution (I see no problem with code
snippets).  This has something to do with, I know not what, the
processing cycle of YANG modules, of the module being generated outside
the I-D/RFC process and then being inserted without the constraints that
the I-D/RFC process normally apply; I recall Benoit giving an
explanation.

However, when I ignore the I-D name and the list we are on, and take the
text in isolation, then I wonder what are we doing here.  This should be
on a different list, art perhaps or the main ietf list, since what you
are proposing has nothing to do with netmod, YANG or any of the topics
that this list discusses; rather it seeks to change the whole of the
IETF.

So, put this up for adoption and I will oppose; this is outside our
remit.
