The controller gave you a crossing restriction. I hear the same phraseology every time. We are at FL230 and the controller wants us to be at 11000 when we cross Pt. Reyes. "SkW 6501 cross Pt. Reyes at maintain 11,000." If you asked for clarification the controller should have been more clear with you. Additionally, you should advise ATC when you vacate your altitude for the descent. ATC . . . 123AB leaving FL230.
