  +++ New Work +++
  The working group is now ready to switch its focus to refining and
  advancing the DKIM protocols.  The current deliverables for the
  DKIM working group are these:

  1. Advance the base DKIM protocol (RFC 4871) to Draft Standard.
     This is the first priority for the working group.

Unfortunately I don't have any background doing this kind of work, so I'm 
forced to guess.  But what about the July IETF as a "done-by" date?  Is that a 
crazy idea?

  2. Collect data on the deployment, interoperability, and
     effectiveness of the base DKIM protocol, with consideration
     toward updating the working group's informational documents.

July IETF.

  3. Collect data on the deployment, interoperability, and
     effectiveness of the Author Domain Signing Practices protocol
     (RFC 5617), and determine if/when it's ready to advance on the
     standards track. Update it at Proposed Standard, advance it to
     Draft Standard, deprecate it, or determine another disposition,
     as appropriate.

November IETF.

  4. Taking into account the data collected in (2) and (3), update
     the overview and deployment/operations documents.  These are
     considered living documents, and should be updated periodically,
     as we have more real-world experience.

February 2011 IETF.

  5. Consider issues related to mailing lists, beyond what is
     already documented.  This includes considerations for mailing
     list software that supports or intends to support DKIM, as well
     as considerations for DKIM/ADSP deployment in the presence of
     mailing lists that do not have such support.  Include
     recommendations in the informational documents, or produce a
     new informational document about mailing-list considerations.

I think this can be done in parallel, so November IETF.
