I wasn't there, but that's what the meeting notes seem to say, and that's what the people who were there all seem to agree on. Not that it matters; the type is defined and at least one authority server implementation will synthesize protocol-compliant CNAME RRs in the presence of DNAMEs, and so the approach documented at www.isc.org/pubs/tn/ will universally work OK. -- Paul Vixie
