Hi Jerry

Thanks for the comments!

Please see in line!

Georgios: Okay, we will include this change!

It would further clarify if you put in the bit-level example of the RMD-QSPEC, as called for by QOSM requirements given in the QSPEC draft.  E.g., such a bit-level QSPEC example is given in Section 4.5 ("Bit-Level QSPEC Example") of the Y.1541-QOSM draft (http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-nsis-y1541-qosm-10#section-4.5).  This would clarify, for example, the QSPEC Procedure being used and other bit-level details.

Georgios: but this is already specified in Section 4.1. We could include
a sentence in the appendix: "The bit level format of the RMD-QSPEC is
specified in Section 4.1."

Best regards,
Georgios
