Not a final review, just a question first that came up
when I did a quick initial browse:

I do not understand:

       MODULE -- docsDevNotif
       --mandatory groups

           GROUP docsDevCmNotifControlGroup
           DESCRIPTION
               "Mandatory in CM."
  
           GROUP docsDevCmNotificationGroup
           DESCRIPTION
               "Mandatory in CM."

       ::= { docsDevNotifCompliances 1 }

Why would you not specify instead:

   docsDevCmNotifCompliance MODULE-COMPLIANCE
       STATUS current
       DESCRIPTION
       "The compliance statement for CM Notifications and Control"

       MODULE --docsDevNotif
         MANDATORY-GROUPS {
             docsDevCmNotifControlGroup,
             docsDevCmNotificationGroup
         }

After all, it is the compliance for CM, and for a CM, both groups
are mandatory. So using my alternate method makes that a spec
that is machine readable.

Same for the Cmts compliance of course.
