Nobody made new noises in this direction, therefore I edited
the "last erratum" to say "no match". Please check that the
proposed text says what you want:
http://www.openspf.org/RFC_4408/Errata#permerror-invalid-domains
I'd like to have a "the old Council would have decided" voice
from Alex or Scott, or a "the community clearly prefers" voice
from somebody who is neither Ale nor Terry. Or to make things
more interesting everybody can of course change their mind. ;-)
Word smithing, stylistic issues, go for it. If nothing special
happens this section will be moved to "confirmed" in the next
days.
