Hi Richard:

The interpretation of the results from the site has been deemed by some as
rather obscure because it doesn't include the use case for each test.

If your nameservers host a .nz domain I can check the output of our DNS
Flag day runs and give you the historical results and possible guide you on
what means what.
(I'm presenting about DNS Flag day tomorrow during the morning session of
NZNOG 2019)

Cheers,
