Yes. :->
Refer to RFC 1587 ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc1587.txt
"Abstract
"This document describes a new optional type of OSPF area, somewhat
humorously referred to as a "not-so-stubby" area (or NSSA). NSSAs are
similar to the existing OSPF stub area configuration option but have the
additional capability of importing AS external routes in a limited fashion.

"Proposed Solution
"This document describes a new optional type of OSPF area, somewhat
humorously referred to as a "not-so-stubby" area (or NSSA) which has the
capability of importing external routes in a limited fashion. "
The NSSA was developed to solve particular problems caused by limitations of
the original OSPF specification, to whit, the importation of external routes
into what otherwise was considered an OSPF stub area.
You may want to add the IETF link to your references.
