<t>
A zone in GNS is defined by a public/private ECC key pair (d,zk),
- where d is the private key and
- zk the corresponding public key.
- GNS uses the Ed25519 EC parameters as defined in <xref target="RFC8032" />.
- GNS combines the EC parameters of Ed25519 with the ECDSA scheme
- defined in <xref target="RFC6979" /> in order to achieve zone privacy.
+ where d is the private key and zk the corresponding public key.
+ GNS combines the EC parameters of Ed25519 (<xref target="RFC8032" />)
+ with the ECDSA scheme (<xref target="RFC6979" />).
+ The deterministic property of ECDSA (as opposed to EdDSA) is required
+ in order to achieve zone privacy.
+ Records published in a zone are signed using a derived private key
+ as described in <xref target="publish" />.
The public key "zk" is used to uniquely identify and refer to the zone and
is thus called "zone key".
- Records published in the zone are signed using a private key derived
- from "d" as described in <xref target="publish" />.

+ In the following, we use the following naming convention for out

+ </t>
+ <dl>
+ <dt>d</dt>
+ <dd>
+ is a private key. It is defined in <xref target="RFC8032" /> as a b-bit
+ string. In our case, b is 256.
+ </dd>
+ <dt>p</dt>
+ <dd>
+ is the prime of edwards25519 as defined in <xref target="RFC8032" />.

+ </dd>
+ <dt>zk</dt>
+ <dd>
