It's a well thought out approach. However I see nothing in it that justifies delaying work on SSP.

I think there is a strong justification for not REQUIRING SSP to be finished to publish the base dociment. I think there is no justification provided for deferring all work on SSP.

I'm not sure which you are proposing.

If you are proposing that finishing SSP not be a requirement for submitting the base to the standards process, then I think that makes a lot of sense.

If you are proposing that work in the group cease on SSP until the base document is submitted to the standards process (this will come as a surprise to no one, I'm sure), I think it's a serious mistake.

I won't attempt to rehash all the reasons why. The short version is that I don't think we need better inputs to do more heuristics. I think we need alternatives to heuristics. I don't think that building a better whitelist justifies the effort of DKIM.
