Agreed, except that if you include notify as part of the zone transfer
machinery, the question of who is the initiator gets murky. (An upstream
starts a zone transfer process by notifying a downstream that it might
want to make a transfer request... who is taking the initiative here?)
So I prefer upstream and downstream, to match the flow of zone data.

Great Orme Head to the Mull of Galloway: West or northwest 3 or 4,
occasionally 5 near Mull of Galloway, becoming variable 3 or less later
backing south 4 or 5 later. Smooth or slight. Mainly fair. Mainly good.
