NAT’D or Translated – The Votes Are in – We Have a WINNER

The poll votes are in, the Magic Gnomes have carefully examined all the ballots (in addition to the their day job of checking all the packets

The poll results are:

NAT’d (61%, 71 Votes)
translated (22%, 25 Votes)
NATted (11%, 13 Votes)
NATted (5%, 6 Votes)
NATTY (1%, 1 Votes)

I hereby decree that the people have spoken and that NAT’d is the official documentation standard.

I look forward to seeing people report that they successfully used the term.
