Hi,

we have posted a new revision of the YANG-Mount draft.  

This particular draft concerns the flavor of YANG-Mount that allows to mount instances of YANG data, either local (Alias-Mount) or remote (Peer-Mount).  This is complementary to Structural / Schema-Mount, which allows to mount YANG definitions (as opposed to data instances), addressing a related but slightly different problem.  The solution approach - with YANG extensions and mountpoint management - should be complementary as well and allows them to build on one another.  

Kind regards
--- Alex (on behalf of the coauthors)

Abstract:
   This document introduces capabilities that allow YANG datastores to
   reference and incorporate information from remote datastores.  This
   is accomplished by extending YANG with the ability to define mount
   points that reference data nodes in another YANG subtree, by
   subsequently allowing those data nodes to be accessed by client
   applications as if part of an alternative data hierarchy, and by
   providing the necessary means to manage and administer those mount
   points.  Two flavors are defined: Alias-Mount allows to mount local
   subtrees, while Peer-Mount allows subtrees to reside on and be
   authoritatively owned by a remote server.  YANG-Mount facilitates the
   development of applications that need to access data that transcends
   individual network devices while improving network-wide object
   consistency, or that require an aliasing capability to be able to
   create overlay structures for YANG data.

Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
