When documenting ENUM make sure you make a difference between an
ENUM-alike structure and the ENUM system.

The ENUM system is the one with the official root e164.arpa. Nothing else
can be called ENUM. If you use NAPTR and build something for yourself,
it's an ENUM-alike structure. Don't use the terms "private ENUM" or something
like that. My friend Patrik wrote the RFC's and he is _very_ strict with
the difference between ENUM and private systems with a similar solution.
