Parent is a CNAME

[Hans Jacobsen]

If a.stanford.edu is a cname (say to b.stanford.edu)
can I delegate subdomain.a.stanford.edu?  Are there documents that  
point to this being an ok or bad practice?

I know all records for a.stanford.edu are relegated to records for  
b.stanford.edu
What about subdomains?
