Re: consensus call of RR prefix

2004-09-04 12:54:56

My position on the prefix issue is that, since the right way to do things is to publish SPF2 RR records at the domain itself, we should put the TXT records there as well.

While it might make for less clutter to put the TXT records at some sub-domain such as _spf, it would be inconsistent with where the SPF2 RR goes. Further, using sub-domains appears to be a significant barrier to publishing for domains that use existing domain hosting services. Lastly, from previous technical discussion, it is clear that use of a sub-domain doesn't improve the wild-card situation at all, nor allow any information to be removed from the version string.
