I would like to see a clarification for section:

2.1. The OPENPGPKEY RDATA component
  The RDATA (or RHS) of an OPENPGPKEY Resource Record contains a single
  value consisting of a [RFC4880] formatted OpenPGP public keyring.


I'm struggling with definition of "formatted OpenPGP public keyring". After a
quick glance I have found only this:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880#section-3.6
3.6. Keyrings
  A keyring is a collection of one or more keys in a file or database.
  Traditionally, a keyring is simply a sequential list of keys, but may
  be any suitable database.  It is beyond the scope of this standard to
  discuss the details of keyrings or other databases.

I did not read whole RFC 4880 so it is possible that I have missed some
related definitions but IMHO this reference deserves clarification.

Where is the actual keyring format defined?

That's it. You're looking at it. There is not a better reference that
I'm aware of. I have been looking for it myself as well.
