The IESG has received a request from the NETCONF Data Modeling Language WG (netmod) to consider the following document: - 'IANA Timezone Database YANG Module' <draft-ietf-netmod-iana-timezones-03.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-12-17. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document defines the initial version of the iana-timezones YANG module. The iana-timezones YANG module defines the iana-timezone type, which is a serialization of the existing IANA Time Zone registry into YANG format. The document provides instructions to IANA how to maintain the iana-timezones YANG module when the underlying Time Zone registry is updated. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-netmod-iana-timezones/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-netmod-iana-timezones/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
