Hi,

It might also be worth adding a line at the start reminding of the need for 
NSEC and NSEC3 - namely that the signing and serving of the zone are separate 
operations and that it is therefore necessry to create records that cover the 
very large number of non-existent names that lie between the names that do 
exist.

NSEC and NSEC3 are just different ways to achieve this goal and some people 
might prefer one above the other. One is NOT better than the other and it is a 
matter of operational needs that determine which one you select.

It may also be worth removing the mention of cryptographic operations. The 
hashing in NSEC3 is just a way to create new names that cover the same spaces. 
I imagine that many other schemes could have been dreamt up to do this. Hashing 
is just a convenient method.
