Did you manage to call the field "class"? It's a reserved word in C++, 
so we had to use "klass" in the past

Descriptions with only one sentence shouldn't end with "."

How is "Object Age" measured?

As a user, I would expect the number to be in seconds/minutes/hours, but 
that is not the case. Perhaps an explanation in the description and/or a 
field name that better reflects what we really mean with age.

Otherwise trace.xml looks good!
