Provide proto backwards-compatibility #8

Open remingtonc opened 5 years ago

remingtonc commented 5 years ago

Protocol buffers provides backwards/forwards-compatibility via consistent field indexing/naming. Ideally the protos could be found in a normalized/ folder which provides a consistent usage experience no matter which revision we use. I recognize this might not be possible with the impedance mismatch from YANG -> protobuf and MDT infrastructure, so if this is not feasible feel free to close.
