All of this implies that reputation services such as blacklists will
continue to exist. However, a major problem has been with these
services is that they provide a binary yes/no answer.
This is incorrect; several BLs already provide a variety of answers.
Would there be a value to creating a standard protocol and format for

My plate is full, but I think so. Exact definitions of what an open

I'd guess Paul Vixie/MAPS set the defacto standard of using 127/8 ips.
