      <title>CDDL 2.0 and beyond -- a draft plan</title>

      <abstract>
	 <t>   The Concise Data Definition Language (CDDL) today is defined by
   RFC 8610, RFC 9165, RFC 9682, and RFC 9741).  RFC 9165 and the latter
   (as well as some more application specific specifications such as
   RFC 9090) have used the extension point provided in RFC 8610, the
   control operator.

   As CDDL is used in larger projects, feature requirements become known
   that cannot be easily mapped into this single extension point.
   Hence, there is a need for evolution of the base CDDL specification
   itself.

   The present document provides a roadmap towards a &quot;CDDL 2.0&quot;; it is
   intended to serve as a basis for implementations that evolve with the
   concept of CDDL 2.0.  It is based on draft-bormann-cbor-cddl-freezer,
   but is more selective in what potential features it takes up and more
   detailed in their discussion.  This document is intended to evolve
   over time; it might spawn specific documents and then retire, or it
   might eventually be published as a roadmap document.
