On the basis of the text in the thread, I have put the following
definitions into the current working version of the text (in section
1.2):
Starting from a given IPv4 address (possibly the result of a
query for an A RR), the term "existing reverse data" means that a
query for <reversed-ip4-address>.in-addr.arpa. type PTR results
in a positive response (i.e. one that provides a PTR RRset for
the queried name in the answer section).
Starting from a given IPv6 address (possibly the result of a
query for an AAAA RR), the term "existing reverse data" means
that a query for <reversed-ip6-address>.ip6.arpa. type PTR
results in a positive response (i.e. one that provides a PTR
RRset for the queried name in the answer section).
The term "missing reverse data" means that the query for existing
reverse data results in a negative response (i.e., one that does
not provide a PTR RRset for the queried name in the answer
section, often with a non 0 response code).
Please let me know as soon as possible if there are objections.
Best,
A
