Leaving aside the question of whether or not this is a good idea...

I am of course pleased to see that Barry has interest in my experiment 
(so much so that he posted about it over 15 hours before I posted my 
announcement of it :-) ), but:

1. If you are curious, you can read about the experiment here: 
<http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/apps-discuss/current/msg02598.html>

2. This is an apps area (and, more precisely, a "Pete's working groups 
in the apps area") experiment, and though I'd be perfectly happy if 
other WGs and ADs participated, that's between the WGs, the chairs, and 
the ADs. So this one is a decision that DKIM, the DKIM chairs, and Sean 
get to collectively make.

3. One can always publish something as BCP now, and if in the future you 
find that my experiment was so wildly successful that you wish to have a 
document as an AS, you can always re-publish, obsoleting the BCP.

Hope that helps.
