I'd like to hear comments on this, even flames or pointers to threads
I've missed.
You missed the discussion (probably including posts from wayne) about
how the simple format of SPF made it easier to deploy and the stats
showing how many domains had deployed SPF vs. CID. (something like
30,000 vs. sixty). Also discussed: New RR support in deployed clients
is poor and in servers is fair but not great. The former is easily fixed
by having the client embedded in the MARID implementation. The latter
is not easily fixed. A third problem is firewalls that block queries of
the new RR becaue they don't recognize it. (Any known cases of
firewalls that do this? Cisco PIXes don't; they just block (by
configurable default) DNS packets larger than 512Bytes.)
