<blockquote type="cite"><span>Just below this section 4.1.6.2.1 in section 4.1.6.3, we have provided forward reference to section 6.2.2 of MS-ADTS. In addition, last step of pseudo code provided in section 4.1.6.3 calls into 'ExecuteKCCTasks()' which gives
an impression that both sections are linked. Is it sufficient from implementation\clarity point of view to have reference from section 4.1.6.3 only ? If not, we will go ahead and add the reference in section 4.1.6.2.1 too.</span><br>

<span>I did miss that reference. Thanks.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>However, I do think we need a bit more - the transition between</span><br>
<span>paragraphs and pseudo-code in the docs is always a bit jarring, but it</span><br>
<span>is particularly so when it is an inter-doc reference to something that</span><br>
<span>starts with a much more general description. Perhaps fill in</span><br>
<span>ExecuateKCCTasks with this list from 6.2.2, referencing each of the</span><br>
<span>tasks by number individually?</span><br>
