You will find a document which outlines an idea I've had for a while.
Please give me your comments on this list.
The thrust of the document is that while we don't know what the silver
bullet solution for spam is we do know some of the characteristics
which we expect it to exhibit.
We also know that very many ideas are presented on this list which
fail to meet one or more of those criteria, this draft is intended to
provide a reference which outlines those criteria, and could be used
as a partial statement of requirements for a technique to solve the
problem of spam.
Obviously this is just my own 2c at the moment, so let me know what
your opinions are and I'll modify, abandon or replace this as
necessary.
FYI the abstract reads:
"The Internet Research Task Force Anti-Spam Research Group (ASRG) is
frequently presented with proposals for techniques for managing spam
from authors who wish to elicit an expert critique of their
proposals. In many cases proposals fall foul of issues and risks
which are well known and understood by members of the ASRG. This
Internet Draft is intended to enumerate and explain a number of the
more important of the criteria which tend to be applied. This
document will then serve as a normative checklist for anyone wishing
to present a technique to the ASRG."
