Hi everyone.


It has been a month now since the vote for the SPF domain name ended.
The clear winner was openspf, and I think most people assumed that
this meant openspf.org.


Yes - it was a very clear winner.



Unfortunately, I have so far been unable to get the transfer of the
openspf.org domain name started.  I have emailed James Couzens about a
half dozen times since then.  I have received two emails in return,
but none since the July 11th.


That's not a three-week holiday break ago yet - so I suggest that we persevere with chasing James for the transfer until the beginning of August - which would be about three weeks since your last contact on 11th, in case he is on holidays.





What do people think about either using something like openspf.info
instead of openspf.org and hope that openspf.org never falls into the
wrong hands?


Well - you already have control over all the other significant variants of openspf - apart from openspf.org, so I believe we should keep working on getting the complete set.




What do people think about skipping the openspf domain names and going
with the second place finisher, spf-classic.org?


I believe it is too early to abandon the clear preference of the spf community, but I will support whatever domain is eventually chosen.


I agree with John. From doing a minute's worth of poking around, it appears that James has already done a partial changeover to you (Wayne). One of the NS records for openspf.org points to dns.schlitt.net. Interesting.
