While our work "feeds" into the IETF process, this may be an

so there is plenty of time. The FTC will decide how to interact with the
IETF/IRTF.
18 months in which we may come up with something, survey MUAs, Filter
systems and consider making some kind of suggestion to the IETF. At the
rate things seem to go around here - that's a desperate rush :-)
Agreed :) I just don't want people to think that this thing is becoming
an IETF standard tomorrow :)
Also, the FTC has a liason relationship with the ASRG, and I contacted
our contacts there to clarify the situation. I do not see at the current
point an immediate need to make up a standard. While this would be nice
to have anyway, the bill has not even been signed into law yet, so there
is no rush.
It's never going to be law for most of the world, that's not really the
point. It's just recently become a hotter topic than hitherto.
Point taken.
