Ballot Text

Technical Summary
 
      This is an update to the wildcard definition of RFC 1034.  The
      interaction with wildcards and CNAME is changed, an error
      condition removed, and the words defining some concepts central
      to wildcards are changed.  The overall goal is not to change
      wildcards, but to refine the definition of RFC 1034.

      consensus to publish this document as a Proposed Standard.
