Hm, but inlets different from inlet0 also may accept different kinds of messages, "pack 0 0 0" vs. "pack s s s" is one example. So I would suggest to remove the "Messages" section and only use Inlet-sections, that explain the various messages and data streams an inlet accepts or expects. But just like Luke I may now understand what Messages was supposed to contain in the first place.
