There are three noteworthy changes from the previous version of this draft:

1. We no longer use the term “referral glue”.

2. Instead of introducing new (and likely confusing) terms such as “sibling 
glue” and “in-domain glue” we now refer to these as “glue for sibling domain 
name servers” and “glue for in-domain name servers”.

3. Expanded the introduction paragraph that talks about not placing 
requirements on data in zones or registries (as suggested by Ralf).
