Rachel, if you can incorporate Qin’s suggestions and generally think about whether adding a descriptive sentence or two to each field in the appendix would help, that will work for me.

Thanks,
Alissa

Qin  was the main editor, Benoit was the OPS AD, Gonzalo was the RAI AD, and I was the document shepherd. Benoit asked to re-use the 6390 template, so that the metrics defined by XRBLOCK are formatted in a similar manner with metrics defined by other WGs in the IETF. The WG wanted that the RFC text keeps compatibility with previous XRBLOCK / RTCP-XR definitions. So we arrived at the solution to include the RFC 6390 style of definition in Annexes, using references in order to avoid duplication.
