In my understanding yes, but the doc is a bit stale.  The "One
reason..." block should now read, e.g.:

      <note><simpara>
      The main reason why IXFR is disabled by default in the current
      release is because it does not use AXFR even
      if it has no knowledge about the zone (like at the very first
      time the secondary server is set up).  IXFR requires the
      "current version" of the zone, so obviously it doesn't work
      in this situation and AXFR is the only workable choice.
      The current release of <command>b10-xfrin</command> does not
      make this selection automatically.
      These features will be implemented in a near future
      version, at which point we will enable IXFR by default.
      </simpara></note>

We might also remove the famous phrase of "near future".  It's vague
and meaningless, and in its usual sense often not true.
