This document describes how to construct DNSSEC NSEC resource records 
that cover a smaller range of names than called for by RFC 4034.  By 
generating and signing these records on demand, authoritative name 
servers can effectively stop the disclosure of zone contents otherwise 
made possible by walking the chain of NSEC records in a signed zone.
