Yes. Maybe it would help to mention in the Introduction of ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam-methods that some elements of the data model are fully defined in ietf-lime-yang-connectionless-oam. The current text says "It is separated from the generic YANG model for connectionless OAM" but does not tell the reader to go and read the generic model!

[Qin]: Good suggestion, we will consider this. Thanks.

E.g.,if protocol-id is set to OWAMP defined in RFC4656, we will use one way delay, if protocol-id is set to TWAMP defined in RFC5357,We will use round trip delay, we allow such flexibility, I might be wrong, since earlier, I claim we only support one way delay, I need to confirm this from other authors.
