They don't. When the issue of what does or does not need to be in the threat
analysis came up back in August, I very specifically asked for guidance as
to
what did or did not belong in there. I did so because I was confident that
no
matter what we put in the document someone would come along with a differing
view and tell us we had it all wrong. I therefore wanted to get on the
record
what was, and more important wasn't, needed.
I'm not sure what you mean by "needed" here. If by "needed", you
mean "required to get Russ to approve your WG", that's one thing.
First of all, this isn't "my" WG, and it is completely inappropriate and rather
offensive to refer to it as such. Second, the document is being developed
specifically and directly as part of the WG chartering process. That isn't "one
thing", it's the "only thing".
If by needed you mean "having an adequate analysis of the problem",
that's quite another. What I'm saying is that I think you have
an inadequate analysis of the problem.
As it happens I disagree, but since the goal here is to produce a very narrowly
focused document to support creation of the WG to work specifically on DKIM,
not to produce a document that addresses any of the various ancillary topics
you want to see addressed, I see no point in debating the adequacy of the
analysis further.
With regard to the rest of your message, I don't really want to
get into a bunch of hermeneutics about Russ's message. Suffice
to say that I don't agree with your interpretation of Russ's
message as conflicting with mine.
Well, the conflict seems to me, and to several others who have posted, to be
quite direct and obvious. But since the things you seem to be after is of no
relevance to the matter at hand, I agree that there's no point in continuing
the discussion of this. Nor IMO is there any point in addressing most of your
comments.
