Hi Barry,
We not both? A robust discussion on the mailing list coupled with a
dedicated session at IETF 118. This issue has deep implications for
everyone from small businesses to the large players in domain hosting
like Microsoft, Google, and Yahoo.
While these major players hold a disproportionate amount of influence
given their scale, it's crucial that the IETF remains committed to
standards that serve the broader community. The far-reaching impact of
decisions related to SPF, DKIM, and DMARC policies cannot be
overstated. Moreover, I believe that discussing these issues in a more
dynamic setting like IETF 118 can bring fresh perspectives into the
fold, especially from those who may not be regular mailing list
contributors but have substantial stakes in this.
Specifically, I want to draw attention to the idea of expanding our
focus to include DKIM Policy Modeling. DMARC, a derivative of the
incomplete ADSP/ATPS protocols, has its value but has also been
commercialized to a degree that may not fully align with IETF
standards. Instead of introducing new proposals, my suggestion aims
to refocus our current discussions. I believe we could benefit from
considering DMARC as an Informational document. This would allow us to
collectively examine existing standards more critically and possibly
identify areas for improvement that better align with IETF principles.
Thank you for considering this perspective.
Best,
HLS

I'm starting this in a separate thread that I want to keep for ONLY
the following question:
Do we want to use the session we have scheduled at IETF 118 to talk
about the issue that clearly is still in discussion about adding a tag
to specify which authentication mechanism(s) to use when evaluating
DMARC?
Or shall I cancel the 118 session and just let the discussion continue
on the mailing list?
And being clear here: the "eliminate SPF entirely" suggestion is
definitely out, failing rough consensus. We're *only* talking about
the suggestion to add a tag to specify what the sender wants.
