<p class="MsoNormal">It sounds like we have some consensus to move forward on the issue. I can draft a proposal that include the following:<br>
<br>
1. Update Section 11.1.3 to clarify that wildcard is allowed for domains for cloud operators. I hear that when the forum last updated section 11.1.3, there was a lot of headache involved, so I will try to be precise and keep the changes to a minimum.<u></u><u></u></p>
