That leaves the task of the referrals definition.  I have some new
text below:

---%<---cut here---

Referral: A type of response in which a server, signalling that it is
not authoritative for an answer, provides the querying resolver with
an alternative place to send its query.  A referral contains an empty
answer section.  It contains the NS RRset for the referred-to zone in
the authority section.  It may contain RRs that provide addresses in
the additional section.  The AA bit is clear.

Is the goal to describe behavior of current (and perhaps past) implementations, or what the behavior should be under ideal circumstances?

Thanks,
Florian
