alternate key server mechanisms

2005-07-27 10:36:40


Please use this thread for discussing the particulars of any possible non-DNS 
key server mechanism.


The current dkim specification provides a message signature header field 
parameter for stating what key server technology applies to this signature.

The current specification mandates that the initial mechanism be the DNS and 
that everyone must support it.

If there are immediate functional requirements that that mechanism does not 
satisfy, then folks need to list them and gain rough consensus about them.

If the the extensibility of that parameter is not sufficient for adding 
alternate key server mechanisms later, then folks need to explain how and gain 
rough consensus on this and need to specify what enhancement to the base 
document is needed.
