The above is an obvious problem or difficult situation that people do
not want to talk about.
Publication in the IETF Stream usually entails giving up change
control. Sometimes that does not work out well; see RFC 6109. The
process is tedious. It does not have to be like that if people make
room for agreement. In simple terms, people can discuss about X for
the next three years or there can be a short discussion and a
solution within the next three months.
The summary of the DMARC BoF is at
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/apps-discuss/current/msg10138.html
According to that message there was agreement for the IETF to take on
the DMARC base specification.
