Specifically, we use the zone 'opennic.glue' for maintaining names of tier-1 and 
tier-2 servers.  Listing the .glue zone on the website is a two-edged sword... 
If we don't list it, we get questions about it.  If we do list it, we get people 
wondering why they can't register a .glue domain.

The zone IS mentioned on various pages about the inner workings of opennic.  
Some people find those pages before asking about the zone, and some don't.  If 
you are setting up a tier-2 server, you will see opennic.glue is listed as one 
of the zones you need to slave.
