If we reset the discussion why do we maintain that reports have to be

You just did it again. This _forces_ technology dependence,
My reading was that the group appeared to converge on using regular
posting for submitting a report.
+1. However, that necessarily depends on the nature of the reports
that have to be sent:
[1] Is the same as for submitting regular new mail, that is, normal
posting. (Determination of the address to send to is a separate
issue.)
The former suits well "generalized FBLs", and ARF.
[2] Is specific to the mechanism for retrieving the message for which a
report is being submitted. (The details of such mechanisms is a
separate issue.)
The latter is better for maintaining Bayesian data on the servers,
an apparently related topic.
