No, I disagree, it is recommended reading for everone who
operates name service, no matter if it's BIND or Microsoft
Domain Wizard or whatever it might be called.  Large parts
of the RFC are not BIND-specific, including the handling
of serial numbers, which is the topic of this thread.

BIND is the reference implementation of DNS, and I guess
it is the most complete and correct one.
