A claim made in the charter of detecting spoofing depends upon a comparison of the signing-domain with the email-address domain.

There is no such absolute claim that I can see in the draft
charter [1].

The charter still offers justification for pursuing constraints on the email-address. That aspect should be removed from the charter and deferred to permit broader consensus independent of the DKIM effort. In the meantime, the base DKIM can developed and deployed.

I disagree. I see ohers disgreeing with you. I don't see
anyone else agreeing with you even though there've been
many, many opportunities.

In IETF terms we have a good consensus against your opinion.
So you should accept that and move on to the next thing. Ok?

Stephen.
