This version fixes some nits and adds a flag to say that an RRTYPE 
requires special processing, so a DNS server can notice it and complain if 
it doesn't know what the special processing is.  For provisioning systems 
that just need to parse or generate the record, it generally wouldn't 
matter.

Abstract:
    Adding new RRTYPEs to the DNS requires that DNS servers and
    provisioning software be upgraded to support each new RRTYPE in
    Master files.  This document defines a DNS extension language
    intended to allow most new RRTYPEs to be supported by adding entries
    to configuration data read by the DNS software, with no software
    changes needed for each RRTYPE.
