[Internal-cg] Draft webinar deck and outline

[Paul Wilson]

For slide 3, let’s rely on the term “Registry” rather than “Database” or “Info”.  Registry is commonly used, and carries the implications of structure and purpose which are missing from the alternatives.

For numbers, the label should be “Numbers Registries”, like “Protocol Parameters Registries”.

Personally I also prefer “Names Registries” or “Root Zone Registry” - but I would defer to those responsible to make the call on that.

Paul.

This is particularly true for the Root Zone Maintainance process but the other OCs also have some information that are not accurately called "Database".  I suggest the following renaming:
