1. Key Server:
1a. Do you agree that storing public keys in the DNS is the way to go?
Or
Yes.
1b Would using some form of HTTP retrieval or HTTP key server be
better?
The draft already contains hooks with the "q=", "d=", and "s=" tags, so the
charter should reflect the intention/expectation that alternatives will be
specified at a later stage.
2. Working group project management
2a. Should the working group focus on the current,
DNS-based mechanism now, and pursue additional mechanisms later? or
Yes. It is simple, readily understood, and provides sufficient
confidence/trust for the vast majority of email messages.
2b. Should the working group include development of a
non-DNS-based mechanism as part of its initial delivery?
No. These can come later as the need for higher levels of trust/confidence
translate into practical requirements.
