Hi Michael, apologies for this really very late reply, but FAIW it's IMHO not really a "Synchronization Server", because the flow is really hierachical - from home via the to-be-named-entity, and then to the place tha scales out, like the slaves of that entity. I think it is also not really a “Distribution Server", if the collecting to-be-named-entity is a fully grown-up DNS Auth by itself, in which i can/do also manage zones directly.
When I ran things in a chain like this, it saw the to-be-named-entity as acting in the capacity of a "DNS intermediary [master]", or "DNS provisioning proxy". AFAIK already when we starting the early discussions on this (Hi Daniel, Hi Ralf!) for the former expired draft, we had not found a specific terminology for such a use of nn DNS Authorittive Server in a draft/doc anywhere, but i still think it is worth the effort to have a specific term for that.
