I thought that you were asking who was an authoritive database of operators.
Then I understood that you are suggesting "authority database" as the term.

Some ascii art, (so pick a sensible mono-spaced font, or use the archive link):

.-----.      .-----.
| S P | ---> | D M |----\-------\------\
`-----'      `-----'    |       |      |
                        V       V      V
                     .-----. .----. .----.
                     | Sec | | Sec| |Sec |
                     `-----' `----' `----'

S.P. = Stealth Primary
Sec  = Secondary
D M  = Distribution M*

Note that the "DM" is usually not listed as an NS, but rather,
two or more "Sec" are what is listed.

So, maybe "Distribution Authority" would make us both happy.
