The following errata report has been submitted for RFC6844,
"DNS Certification Authority Authorization (CAA) Resource Record".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=6844&eid=4070

--------------------------------------
Type: Editorial
Reported by: JINMEI Tatuya <jinmei@wide.ad.jp>

Section: 3

Original Text
-------------
   $ORIGIN example.com
   .       CAA 0 issue "ca.example.net"


Corrected Text
--------------
   $ORIGIN example.com.
           CAA 0 issue "ca.example.net"


Notes
-----
The original text is obviously incorrect (or at least something not really intended) in that the owner name is absolute.  It just doesn't make sense to use $ORIGIN if we use an absolute owner name for the actual RR.  The "corrected text" is one representation of what I guess the author really intended.

There are other instances of the same kind of this error in this section, but I don't bother to list all of them as it should be obvious and the sense of the "fix" should be the same.

Instructions:
-------------
This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG)
can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary.
