Original RFC Text

1.  Introduction

   [RFC6020] defines a registry for YANG module and submodule names,
   called "YANG Module Names" [IANA-MOD-NAMES].

   Specifically, IANA considerations to register YANG module and
   submodule names are specified in Section 14 of [RFC6020].  These
   considerations require that all module and submodule names in the
   registry must be unique.  However, the practice followed by IANA is
   not consistent with that guidance.

   This document amends the guidance on the uniqueness of names
   (Section 14 of [RFC6020]) to comply with the IANA practices for
   registering modules and their revisions.
