of standards documents at the same time, forbidding passive voice.  Can we have

Either:

In this document, [RFCXXXX] describes the following conformance terms: "MUST", 
...

Or:

[RFCXXXX] describes the following conformance terms used in this document: 
"MUST", ...

After staring at http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?eid=499 for
