-This package provides common ways for decoding bytes into data models (e.g. Zipkin Span). These data models can then be decoded into internal pdata representations. Similarly, pdata can be encoded into a data model which can then be encoded into bytes.
+This package provides common ways for decoding serialized bytes into protocol-specific in-memory data models (e.g. Zipkin Span). These data models can then be decoded into internal pdata representations. Similarly, pdata can be encoded into a data model which can then be encoded into bytes.
 
 [encoding](encoding): Common interfaces for encoding/decoding bytes from/to data models.
 
 [translation](translation): Common interfaces for encoding/decoding data models from/to pdata.
 
-This package provides higher level APIs that do both encoding of bytes and data model if going directly pdata <-> bytes.
