Indeed, I wasn't attempting to rehash an old argument specifically about DKIM.
Excellent. Thanks!
I rather thought that the general difficulties (perceived, actual, or otherwise) might be worth enumerating in a more general forum so that they are better-known. I doubt DKIM is the last work which will feature new types of data being stored in the DNS.
This is probably a topic worthy of further discussion, for exactly the reason you cite. It is an issue that keeps coming up and keeps causing significant debate. I do not know what it will take to put the issue fully to rest, but it seems clear to me that it needs a focused discussion and effort.
Possibly not on the IETF list. I don't know what the right venue is. But most certainly not as part of the DKIM Last Call. d/ -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking bbiw.net _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
