A registry has some interface with (normally) humans to receive information about the creation of new zones and the DNS-applicable data for existing zones; registries are also expected to do authorization and authentication of those (normally) humans. Zone managers only deal with zone data, (normally) given to them by the registry for the zones being administered. Normally, there isn't a distinction between the two entities, but in the case of this document, there is. It is the registry that would be responsible for determining the aliases for a zone and enumerating them to the zone administrator. The zone administrator simply does the right technical bits to make all the aliases work. In many cases, the two roles will be the same for aliasing, but for many cases, they will be completely different organizations. --Paul Hoffman
