The following errata report has been submitted for RFC3363,
"Representing Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) Addresses in the Domain Name System (DNS)".

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Mark Andrews <marka@isc.org>

Section: 4

Original Text
-------------
4.  DNAME in IPv6 Reverse Tree

   The issues for DNAME in the reverse mapping tree appears to be
   closely tied to the need to use fragmented A6 in the main tree: if
   one is necessary, so is the other, and if one isn't necessary, the
   other isn't either.  Therefore, in moving RFC 2874 to experimental,
   the intent of this document is that use of DNAME RRs in the reverse
   tree be deprecated.


Corrected Text
--------------
4. DNAME in IPv6 Reverse Tree

[Deleted due to faulty premise.]

Notes
-----
The opening premise of this section is demonstrably wrong, and so the conclusion based on that premise is wrong.  The use of DNAME in the reverse tree is and always has been independent of A6.
