Hi Arpad,
I suggest modifying the second paragraph to say the following.

|*              A branch in the .ami file is an "AMI Parameter" if it
|*              contains the leaves Type, Usage, and any of the following
|*              leaves:
|*
|*                   Default
|*                   <data_format> or Format <data_format>
|*
|*              and does not contain another branch.  
|*                A branch which contains one or more
|*              sub-branches may only contain the (Description <string>)
|*              leaf/value pair in addition to the sub-branches.
|*              Any two or more sub-branches to a branch cannot have the   |*   
           same name.

Basically, I removed "Multiple leaves containing the same reserved word are not 
allowed within an AMI Parameter branch." 
and added " Any two or more sub-branches to a branch cannot have the            
same name."

Please let me know if this is accurate.
Thanks,
Ambrish.

Subject: [ibis-macro] Repeated leaf/value pairs restriction text

Hello,

There was some discussion on the wording of the prohibition of
repeated leaf/value pairs in the .ami file in the last ATM
teleconference and we decided to take the discussion off line.
I didn't make a change to this area, but I am writing this
email to start the off line discussion on this topic.

This is what we have currently in the Typos BIRD draft:


|*              All leaves of the .ami file must begin with one of the
|*              following reserved words:
|*
|*                   Type
|*                   Usage
|*                   Description
|*                   Default
|*                   <data_format> or Format <data_format>
|*
|*              A branch in the .ami file is an "AMI Parameter" if it
|*              contains the leaves Type, Usage, and any of the
following
|*              leaves:
|*
|*                   Default
|*                   <data_format> or Format <data_format>
|*
|*              and does not contain another branch.  Multiple leaves
|*              containing the same reserved word are not allowed within
an
|*              AMI Parameter branch.  A branch which contains one or
more
|*              sub-branches may only contain the (Description <string>)
|*              leaf/value pair in addition to the sub-branches.


The debated words are in this last paragraph.  Please let me
know how this could be written better.

Thanks,

Arpad
