Domainkeys and IIM were convergent evolution. IIM was actually

Yahoo's Domainkeys was an operational system, for at least two rounds
of development and refinement, before discussion moved towards the
IETF venue.
My recollection is that IIM was a proposal, but not an operational
system. Perhaps you can point to some documentation to the contrary?
btw, as for my note being "completely a-historic", perhaps you can
point to substantiating material?
Wrong again. We had our signing up and running in Cisco's production
mail before dk and before we brought it to IETF. I was surprised by
that, but it's true as verified by Murray and Mark in private
discussions of a blog post I wrote. The difference in time was minor and
irrelevant, but you're the one trying to use it as a cudgel. It was
truly convergent evolution and what allowed us in meetings you were not
part of to agree that we should merge our proposals.
And this is completely irrelevant, and a continued ad hominem. Stop it.
