Hi all,

for a number of reasons, all of which have been discussed at length in the
past, I'm highly dissatisfied by the "XML in DNS" and "XML format is
preferred" concepts of The New SPF.  In my eyes, none of these reasons
have been invalidated to a satisfactory level, so I have decided not to
use and support The New SPF.  (I'm not being huffy, I'm just not going to
bite the "XML in DNS" bullet.)

I'm thinking about forking SPF into "The New SPF" and a non-XML "SPF1"
variant, i.e. keep The Old SPF going separately and independently from The
New SPF.

Who's with me?

Count me in! Personnally, I'm very hesitant to deploy any version of
the SPF sendmail milter that has XML/CID support.
