Yes, they're the same

Well, they're public dns's no zones on it, just resolution for our
clients (we're an ISP)

Is there any document about it ? I would like to know this kind of
changes

This should not be the problem as they are not authoritative for any
zones, though we've made delegation changes recently to left this boxes
empty of zones, just to split our dns servers.

Hope this helps
