Mailing-list is a very broad term. Some of this is applicable to

increase confusion rather than reduce it.
I think that Jim and I both intended this discussion to cover
discussion
lists, so how about pretending that it says discussion list
wherever it
says mailing list?
For broadcast lists, I don't think there are any particular DKIM
problems
since the content either comes from the sender or the sender is an
agent
of the author.
Yup. I'm more arguing against any definition of mailing list in the
document, really, especially one that contradicts one of the more
widely used usages. If you're in the intended audience then you'll
know it when you see it and any definition is not going to be useful
to you.
Cheers,
Steve
