Forwarding to the authors and WG

Regards, Benoit
I am guessing that the authors intended the addition of the text emphasizing that the no-zone typedefs are derived general typedef addresses the difference in the patterns.

Is there a YANG rule that says tat if typedef X is derived from typedef Y then the string for X must match the pattern for X and the pattern for Y? If so, then my concern below is misplaced. (The fact that I find the vague pattern for the child misleading is not a fault with the document, but rather in my head, under that requirement.)

Yours,
Joel

Summary: This document is nearly ready for publication as a Standards
Track RFC

Major issues:
     (The following may well be a non-issue.)
     In the revision of the ietf-inet-types, the patterns for the new
ip4-address-no-zone and ipv6-address-no-zone are drastically simplified
from the ipv4-address and ipv6-address patterns.  The new
ipv4-address-no-zone allows any sequence of decimal digits an periods,
while the original was carefully defined as dotted quads of 0..255.
Similarly, te ipv6-address-no-zone allows any arbitrary sequence of hex
digits and colons.  The original patterns were very careful to match
rules for validity.  Is there a reason for the change.

Minor issues:
