Ugh. I remember Paul Vixie saying back in 1999 that "it will take the

One could respond to
http://www.xyzzy.claranet.de/home/test/draft-church-dnsbl-harmful-01.txt
with a similar essay styled something like "the continuing absence of a
widely accepted reputation infrastructure considered harmful"
The statement of terms seems to be a good thing, but could be pulled out
into its own document: "Informative: on the history of the spam problem" or
something. Then we could just refer to that instead of having to describe
the battlefield in engineering detail before loading each shot into our cannons.
Or maybe go full-on hypocritical and announce "topic considered harmful essays
considered harmful" -- hurry hurry just a few days before Internet Cleaning Day.
