Indeed. Good document. There is no need to discuss about
draft-livingood-dns-lie, all the issues raised here in this WG were
already in the SSAC document one year ago.

I regret one thing with SSAC 032: they mix wildcards in the zone and
lying resolvers. True, they have similarities but also differences
(for instance, wildcards in a zone follow the DNS protocol, and
therefore are compatible with DNSSEC) and I'm a bit tired of Slashdot
discussions starting with "Comcast == Sitefinder".

Irrelevant since it talks only about wildcards in the zone.
