IMHO (with no other hats but that of a WG participant/author), it is very
difficult to include everything in the base YANG model while the protocol
is constantly being extended. It is okay to get consensus on the base and
get it published first. The YANG allows easy augmentation for future
protocol extension.

Note that we already have a draft related to SRv6 (and SR Policy) -
https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-pce-pcep-srv6-yang-01.html
adopted in the WG which augments the base YANG model.

That said I have gone through the below list and added comments
further....

This was straightforward and thus added to the model now!

Look for feature "sr" and you will find a lot of nodes related to SR and as
I mentioned SRv6 and SR-Policy is kept in a different draft. This also
allows us to progress the base PCEP YANG with a further dependency on
SPRING YANG documents which are not yet mature!

It is better to have a seperate YANG I-D for PCECC, I was thinking about
creating one for all PCECC extensions together.

See above points!

See above and moreover I don't see any PCEP YANG attributes for a BGP-LS
extension!

Same!

This has been added now!

This is already there!

These are handled via association already! There is no need for any other
nodes.

What exact change do you want to see in the YANG model for this?

Left for the future! BTW not sure what change in the YANG model needs to be
done for this -- note we don't store the constraints (objects / TLVs) in
the YANG model.

Please see the new update for the I-D posted -
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pce-pcep-yang/
and diff at -
https://author-tools.ietf.org/iddiff?url2=draft-ietf-pce-pcep-yang-21

Please consider updating the review status if you agree with my comments.
Otherwise please help provide the exact change you would like to see!

Thanks!
