[RFC Errata System]

The following errata report has been submitted for RFC6844,
"DNS Certification Authority Authorization (CAA) Resource Record".

You may review the report below and at:

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Richard Gibson <***@oracle.com>

Section: 3

Original Text
-------------
<Issuer Domain Name> [; <name>=<value> ]*

Corrected Text
--------------
<Issuer Domain Name> [; [ <name>=<value> ]* ]

Notes
-----
For values of the "issue" and "issuewild" property tags, section 3 specifies [; <name>=<value> ]* (which seems to indicate that every parameter is preceded by a semicolon) but the grammar in section 5.2 specifies [";" *(space parameter) space] (in which parameters are separated by whitespace and the entire list is preceded by a single semicolon). Presumably, the formal grammar is definitive and the preceding shorthand should be updated to better express it.

Instructions:
-------------
This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party
can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary.
