Hi,

This issue came up on pyang:

https://github.com/mbj4668/pyang/issues/944

IMO this is a high priority issue for RFC 9595.
Also for pyang, since the mainline 2.7.1 follows the RFC-defined syntax.
I guess the core-wg fork does not.

The YANG typedef clearly identifies the absolute-schema-nodeid, which is
the syntax used
by the augment-stmt argument.  The example in Appendix A shows path strings
without choice and case nodes.

Since the authors claim the examples are correct, I guess RFC 9595 needs to
be replaced with an update
that replaces the schema-node-identifier typedef with something that
matches the WG intent.


Andy
