Technical Summary

   This document specifies a YANG extension along with guidelines for
   applying an extended set of semantic versioning rules to revisions of
   YANG artifacts (e.g., modules and packages).  Additionally, this
   document defines a YANG extension for controlling module imports
   based on these modified semantic versioning rules.

   This document updates RFCs 7950, 8525, and 9907.

Working Group Summary

 The overall consensus of WG is to proceed, noting that there
 are some in the rough.

 There was strong support from some, general support from others, and
 a few objections from those that, have strong history with the WG,
 have only periodically been involved with the development of
 the overall versioning solution (which this document is part of).

Document Quality

  Some tooling is being developed to validate modules against
  the extensions defined in the document.

  The document was reviewed by YANGDOCTORs.

Personnel

   The Document Shepherd for this document is Lou Berger.
   The Responsible Area Director is Mohamed Boucadair.
