Re: [dmarc-ietf] Consensus Sought - Ticket #47 (Removal of "pct" tag) - With Interim Notes

[Todd Herr <[e-mail]>]

I have closed the subject ticket and incorporated relevant text
changes in draft-ietf-dmarc-dmarcbis-02,
which will be published on Datatracker as soon as the chairs have a chance
to do so.

The relevant text changes here include clarification of the meaning of the
pct tag as well as a much longer discussion of message sampling and the
limitations inherent in the application of the pct tag.

The text changes all fall under the umbrella of "proposed text", and I
expect there will be further discussion of the topic.
