<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for putting this together. I have one request; ISO/DIS 21188 section 5.12.3 makes it clear that a wildcard name is not a Fully Qualified Domain Name. I had started to put together a set of changes to clarify this independent of
this ballot. The changes are available at <a href="https://github.com/cabforum/documents/compare/master...pzb:underscores?expand=1">https://github.com/cabforum/documents/compare/master...pzb:underscores?expand=1</a><o:p></o:p></p>

current language of the domain validation section BR 3.2.2.4 is what we passed in Ballot 181, and is missing validation Methods 1-4 and 7-9 with minor tweaks as indicated. We are also eliminating Method 11 (previously Method 7) – “any other method.” The
language you see inserted is the same language as we passed in Ballot 169, except for the minor changes I specifically call out.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

in response to the discussion we have had on whether a change to a validation method means all prior validations using that method are no longer valid, we have made some changes. In essence, the BRs would not state that data, documents, and prior validations
can be reused for the permitted reuse period under BR 4.2.1, unless the Forum specifically requires revalidation in a ballot.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the comments are removed), and (b) the other showing how BR 3.2.2.4 and 4.2.1 plus the definitions will read if Ballot 190 is adopted. I am sending the documents in both Word and pdf formats.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
