1) In Section 1, “The purpose of the root server system (RSS) is to give authoritative answers to queries about the DNS root”. This may be described as “The purpose of the root server system (RSS) is to give authoritative answers to queries about the DNS Top-Level Domains (TLDs) (or root zone)”. Because “DNS root” may lead people to understand it as “root servers” as “Root Hind File” acts.
The NS records for the TLDs in the root zone are _not_ authoritative (in the strict DNS usage of that term). cheers, Ray
