We show that a significant amount of, in general, anisotropic dark radiation is produced in this process unless only the modes which satisfy a specific relation are excited. We conclude that subsequent entropy production within the brane is required in general before primordial nucleosynthesis and that the presence of off-diagonal components (like in the Salam, Strathee and Petracci works) of the bulk metric modifies the processes of entropy production which could substantially change the brane-world picture of the Universe.7 pages, Revtex, version 2 with changed affiliation and referencesHigh Energy Physics - TheoryOff-Diagonal Metrics and Anisotropic Brane Inflationtext
