OSPF stub network

Hi All,

Reading OSPF this afternoon, there is a paragraph on CCO as follows:-

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/104/ospfdb7.html

"If they're on a common subnet, the routers install routes for any
stub networks listed in their neighbor's router LSA. In our example,
6.0.0.0/8 is the only stub network listed in Router 3.3.3.3's LSA in
Area 1, to which Router 2.2.2.2 is already directly connected."

What qualifies as a Stub Network??? What does it mean by "any stub
networks listed in their neighbor's Router LSA"? I would have thought
the 5.0.0.0/8 would be included also?

Am I clearly missing something?

Cheers
