+// The cache maintains a collection of (question, answer) pairs.
+//
+// The question (= the search key for the cache) has the
+// following components:
+//
+// @li namespace id
+// @li domain-name (dotted notation)
+// @li DNS query type (EDnsQType)
+// @li DNS query class (EDnsQClass)
+//
+// The answer is contained within CDndRecord class. Among other
+// things, it contains the full original reply from some DNS server
+// for the question.
+//
+// The cache is implemented as a forest of trees, one tree
+// for each name space. Each component of the domain-name
+// becomes a node in the tree. A node at any non-leaf level can have
+// zero or more answers attached (for. example, the domain name "nokia.fi"
+// can have both "A" (address) and "NS" (name server) answers
+// associated it.
+//
+// The leaf nodes must have at least one answer. When
+// the last answer is expired or otherwise removed from a leaf node,
+// the node itself is also removed. A tree containing no answers
+// consists just of the root node (name space node).
+//
+// For example, if in the below example, the "A" answer associated with
+// query (namespace=\\<global\\>, domain-name="www.nokia.com", query=A, class=IN)
+// is removed, then also the nodes for "www" and "nokia" are pruned away.
