I do not think 'consent' really has anything to do with a definition of 'spam'
in the context of this problem. I feel that consent with respect to messaging
is TOTALLY subjective and what a real definition addresses is the issue of
policy or 'consent' enforcement after solicitation. I think enforcement comes
via the technical solution we come up with.

Given that this is a technical research body, how does one go about
offering that consent, in a service with 100 million participants, and
how does one enforce it?
The group has a charter to which it's profitable to refer from time to time
(I'd say). I'm sure working up a mechanism for expressing consent (here I
go again) will be difficult - but I think it's a job for the group. It's
fairly easy to envisage consent expression propagating up to the ISP or MTA
(from individual users) enabling consent to be consulted at a single point
for a domain (or set of domains). As for enforcing it, it's not clear
that's a purely technical problem.
