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.

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.
