I think my message was unclear.  I wasn't trying to fine tune the 
terminology.  I was trying to offer possible interpretations of the 
words in an attempt to understand the requirement.  (Note I went back 
to the first message in the thread.)

To clarify - Yes.  In this instance, "in-active" would cover having a 
DS appear, the DNSKEY appear, but no RRSIG created by the private 
key.  That would make the DS "in-active" in terms of building a chain 
of trust.
