Excellent. Thanks!


I rather thought that the general difficulties (perceived, actual, or otherwise) might be worth enumerating in a more general forum so that they are better-known. I doubt DKIM is the last work which will feature new types of data being stored in the DNS.

This is probably a topic worthy of further discussion, for exactly the reason you cite. It is an issue that keeps coming up and keeps causing significant debate. I do not know what it will take to put the issue fully to rest, but it seems clear to me that it needs a focused discussion and effort.

Possibly not on the IETF list. I don't know what the right venue is.

But most certainly not as part of the DKIM Last Call.
