I was thinking of current time minus t=, which should be the real flight time from signature to verification. Thinking twice, it may also make sense to report how much time was left (or beyond) w.r.t x=, that is x= minus current time.

Which values were you thinking of reporting for the min/max/avg
statistics?  Some time delta value exceeding the "x="?  The DKIM delta
between "x=" values "t=" values?

Presumably this is to help report to the sender when their expiry value is
having trouble with some receiver/forwarder?

Hi,

how to set DKIM expiration (x=) is being discussed in the DKIM WG.  Making
educated guesses requires some data.  Aggregate reports are the right
place for
that.  For example:

     <record>
         <row>
             <source_ip>192.0.2.119</source_ip>
             <count>184</count>
             <min>4</min>
             <max>312</max>
             <avg>21</avg>
             <policy_evaluated>
             ...

Min, max and avg are functions present in almost all packages that deal
with
collections, from DBMSes to programming languages.  So adding them is just
a
few minutes more than what would be needed to upgrade to the new spec as
it is now.

I aired this idea in [ietf-dkim], and I'm looking forward to seeing the
same
reaction here.  However, what about messages from the dmarc list for the
week
ending Sun Feb 19 06:00:04 2023?
