8.3 vs 8.4

I have over 10,000 internal clients using my internal nameservers.
I don't use rrset-order on my external nameservers. I only use it
on my internal nameservers.  Since all my internal nameservers use
rrset-order, the order is preserved.

amazing. I was expecting a reasons more complicated and credible, never=20
rrset- order.  :)

rrset-order affects only answers from your server's database given by =
your=20
DNS.

Once the rrsets from your server are cached in other servers, your=20
rrset-order is ignored, since those servers have their own rrset =
behavior,=20
and don't even know what yours is.
