Changes of string in 37557: An important point to note regarding the Domain Name System it that it is extensible. Thanks to the `Type` and `RDLength` fields, the format of the Resource Records can easily be extended. Furthermore, a DNS implementation that receives a new Resource Record that it does not understand can ignore the record while still being able to process the other parts of the message. This allows, for example, a DNS server that only supports IPv6 to safely ignore the IPv4 addresses listed in the DNS reply for `www.ietf.org` while still being able to correctly parse the Resource Records that it understands. This allowed the Domain Name System to evolve over the years while still preserving the backward compatibility with already deployed DNS implementations. @ Weblate
