"No support at all?"   For the record, I support the "split."  But I 
won't care it is remains.  I just think it will complicate a 
specification and extend the future work of completing a DKIM Policy 
Model proposed standard which is in need of a tremendous amount of work.

Albeit rfc7489 is informational, it is meant to be a spec.  So structural
changes to the document, however useful to first-time readers, would be a
nightmare for those who have already implemented DMARC and are checking what
has changed.  It would also disrupt many references, thereby invalidating a
large part of the literature.

A new companion rfc (or a new appendix, or a rewriting of Section 8) meant as
an implementation guide could host discussions about the points 1a... 4b listed
upthread.  It should recount the most useful tips we collected thus far, rather
than trying to establish normative duties, IMHO.

This was about a broader process issue and not specifically about
splitting the document into parts (I should have changed the subject
line). But yes, we can stop talking about the document split.

You seem to be suggesting that the standards-track DMARCbis should be
different because an informational, non-WG RFC has already been
published. From a process standpoint that's bad; standards-track RFCs
should go through exactly the same process regardless of whether or not
they were previously published as Informational.


As far as I can tell your proposal to break the document in two has 
gotten no support at all.  Can we stop now?
