1. I was focused on use of selectors for semantic purposes and was not trying to refer to any particular semantics. 2. I used the term "reputation" because it has the widest use. 3. If you can show me industry-wide consensus on the definitions of terms such as reputation, certification, and accreditation I will be extremely interested to see it. My own observation is that it does not exist. So while you have your precise usages, other people have theirs, and they are different. Each use of precise terminology might indeed be highly careful and make quite a bit of sense, but the most important issue is that they are different from each other. d/ -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking bbiw.net _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
