The -09 version (see below) is the response from the document authors
to my request that they clean up some editorial nits in the document
(removing unused references, and such). I've submitted a publication
request for this version to the IESG.

Title : DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) Development,
Deployment and Operations

DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) allows an organization to claim
responsibility for transmitting a message, in a way that can be
validated by a recipient. The organization can be the author's, the
originating sending site, an intermediary, or one of their agents. A
message can contain multiple signatures, from the same or different
organizations involved with the message. DKIM defines a domain-level
digital signature authentication framework for email, using public
key cryptography, using the domain name service as its key server
technology [RFC4871]. This permits verification of a responsible
organization, as well as the integrity of the message contents. DKIM
will also provide a mechanism that permits potential email signers to
publish information about their email signing practices; this will
permit email receivers to make additional assessments about messages.
DKIM's authentication of email identity can assist in the global
control of "spam" and "phishing". This document provides
implementation, deployment, operational and migration considerations
for DKIM.
