There is no wide deployment of DKIM. What is there are several test
machines on the order of couple dozen.
Either the person who made that statement is visiting all our customer sites
and uninstalling / reconfiguring our software or this is evidence of the
ignorance of the speaker on the topic. I am personally responsible for many
more than "on the order of [a] couple dozen" installations of DKIM capable
software. How anyone could possibly divine that there are "on the order of
[a] couple dozen" installations (and all these are "test machines" no less)
is grandly mystifying and I suggest that a trip to Vegas would be a better
use of such skills.
to go around IETF and create proposal in private
and then present to IETF for a stamp of approval.
"go around IETF?" What is that supposed to mean? "Stamp of approval" eh?
Ridiculous. Some of the work hasn't even started. Much that does exists is
highly in need of a rewrite. All that exists is open to the possibility of
change. Does that sound like a "stamp of approval" to anybody? And it must
be asked, what is the worth of an IETF "stamp of approval" these days?
But perhaps that marketing wins over technically best
<Sigh> Oh, the evil "marketing" wins again.
