The bottom line is that RFC 1464 was a syntax proposal

Thanks for the feedback, Rich. IMHO, this WG will yield significant
benefits by finding the appropriate way to update RFC1464 by a) creating
a registry for it and b) upgrading status to standards track. It should
be easier to get on the standards track now that there is at least one
(SPF) implementation that is widely in use.
