Hello,

Section 3.1 mentions:

(Note that a recursive resolver MAY pre-fetch the NS RRset before it
expires.) Followed by a [[ need to discuss ]]

I think this part could be elaborated upon: especially if some of the
addresses in the hints are outdated it is good to use data previously
obtained to re-prime the root, i.e. repeat the priming using cached
data *before expiry*.

That way the potentially outdated hint data is only used once during
the lifetime of the resolver at startup. Subsequent refresh queries
are done using up-to-date data and will pick up future changes as well
without trying to contact no-longer existing root addresses.

        -Otto
