It does seem a bit odd for you to claim you're being ignored when the largest 
change in SPF processing limits contained in 4408bis was your suggestion.  An 
alternate interpretation to consider is that the working group fully 
considered your inputs and incorporated those that were appropriate 
technically and in scope for the charter.

Dear Scott,


This was not directly part of the IETF process, as my input there was ignored.

As I recall, removal of unlimited recursion occurred after a presentation made 
in Boston to the Open Group.

As with unlimited recursion, the need for the macro functions are also 
negligible while posing real risks. This is a serious security concern still 
needing to be addressed.

Regards,
Douglas Otis
