RE: Last Call: draft-irtf-asrg-dnsbl (DNS Blacklists and Whitelists)

there's a lot of evil e-mail messages out there; the cost of 
letting even one of those messages through is unacceptable, 
so false positives are OK. 

This is precisely the sort of thing that should have been 
covered in much more detail in the Security Considerations
section of the draft.

I have no problem with the IETF documenting the world as it exists.
That's what an informational track RFC does.  

(where, "oh well, we'll just block the whole /48 or /32" 
might have unfortunate side effects not forseen yet)

Again, this is missing from the Security Considerations.
