Like the previous yenca release (which was written in C), you do not seem
to support any of the three transport mappings that are discussed in the
working group. The first yenca release used a TLS stream (but did not
get the framing quite right) while this release runs netconf over TCP
(but with a frame marking mechanism that is different from the one used
in the netconf over ssh specification). In addition, you seems to
support encryption and compression above the netconf rpc layer, which
does not match the approach taken by the WG (which is to leave encryption
and compression to the transport).
I did not look through the other parts of the code but I am wondering
how much netconf there actually is in yenca. I also like to know why you
did depart from the netconf transport specifications (and perhaps other
parts of netconf) and whether there is anything that the WG can learn
from this.
