What's the difference between Disjunctive Normal Form and FULLY Disjunctive Normal Form?

$\begingroup$

Could somebody please explain that the difference is between Disjunctive Normal Form and Fully Disjunctive Normal form. Is disjunctive normal form just minterms and fully disjunctive normal form the canonical form of that expression?

To convert to the full version, replace each "p and p" with "p"
after changing conjunctions like "p and q and p" to "p and p and q".
This newfangled distinction is unnecessary.
Us old timers handled logical normal forms without it.
