I've fallen behind, probably missed some discussion - did we decide that

which, IIRC, SPF-ID will be doing anyway for backward compatibility with
SPF, and hence the need for wildcard support beyond the usual way? I'm
wondering aloud why we're not sticking with SPF's syntax but changing
the semantics and usage.
Argh. I would really hope that they would consider putting the policy
record into a delegatable domain/record/anything so that you can shove the
management of that data off to a different group if you want to. So many
large organizations have a wall of beuracracy between the email folks and
the DNS folks.
SPF does, I assume SPF-ID will.
