My apologies for being unclear.  My point was rather that the draft is
about to expire, and Joe and I created it entirely to draw away the
debate of how referrals _should_ happen from the terminology
document.  Tht was what I meant by "the only person".  As someone who
can barely manage to cope with emails at a 1 week interval any more,
I'm hardly likely to complain people don't get back the same day; but
I do apologise that wasn't clear.

This is an interesting suggestion.

You mean, when a server that is not authoritative for anything
nevertheless gets a query with RD==0?  I think that's fine.  How else
do you debug a cache?
