  Online games may be viewed as private networks layered on top of the
Internet.  So are we interested in solving their spam problems, or
are they out of scope:

Now if game sites were using a standard protocol to talk to each other, or between players AND that protocol would be standardized on the Internet level and not proprietary to each company; then it would be in scope.


So, as some games (and other applications) use already VoIP, which is a "standard" I'd say, it might come into the scope of the IETF/ASRG sooner or later.


For the IETF that is the true, for the ASRG with a charter modification that could become true.

An interesting side point - someone on the MXCOMP list pointed out that he has been getting spam SIP calls.

Not that we dont have enough to do to solve the current spam problems, but there are new, yet unexplored and unexploited possibilities to spam which might benefit from what we do here.

Agreed.
