Michael, are you aware of anyone not following the guidance in the
document? This thread feels like we're discussing a non-issue. Aggregate
reports are already required to be authenticated and I'm unaware of anyone
sending failure reports, let along unauthenticated ones. Is the language
causing problems? Such problems have not been brought to the list, and
would be a good place to start if you want to build consensus.

The list seems to be digging in because no one has raised a use case that
shows a need to revisit the text. This was made worse by asserting that
reports must be authenticated, when the text already makes that clear.

It is likely in scope to discuss if the current text needs to be moved from
7.2.1.1 to 7.1, but let's please be careful to focus on operational
feedback and not personal opinions.

To be exceedingly clear: if this thread doesn't focus and come to
consensus quickly, then ticket #98 should be closed, unless a use case is
raised and supported by operational parties, that there is an issue here
requiring further clarification.

Ticket 99 is still in play, if and only if we decide on adding an HTTPS
transport for DMARC reports, of which historical consensus shows this is
unlikely. Let's press pause on that until the other discussion is
concluded, please.

Seth, as chair
