This updates RFC 4871, DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) Signatures.
Specifically the document clarifies the nature, roles and
relationship of the two DKIM identifier tag values that are
candidates for payload delivery to a receiving processing module.
The Update is in the style of an Errata entry, albeit a rather long
one.
I would much prefer that it created a new RFC to _Supersede_ RFC 4871,
containing the full text as amended, and with an Appendix listing the
changes made (whether in full "old/new" format like this draft, or
otherwise), and pointing out that NO change to the protocol was intended
or implied.
Thanks, Charles; noted. What you say was one of the original choices
the chairs posed.
This was not, though, the consensus we arrived at in the meeting, and
there hasn't been enough support for this choice on the mailing list
either.
Barry (as chair)
