The idea is great, but I don't feel it's actually practical. Since already MIB standards lag features and getting MIB into vendor code lags further. So if you would only limit yourself deploying stuff that all your vendors support via common standard model like YANG, you'd be in clear competitive disadvantage in launching products. If you can avoid doing VendorConfig -> Abstract (Or structured as you say) Data. Things get just so much simpler. -- ++ytti
