I certainly don't like some of the inferences of the message, e.g. implies that
the information is
needed as part of the list, it is not. Further this list has little, if
anything, to do with Sender
ID.
I think deployment of this message should be voted on by the council BEFORE
being done.
Why is the list being changed at the 11th hour just before the council is
elected?

New subscribers to the list will now see the following text:
This list is for open discussion of the proposed SPF standard.
Subscription to this list, and posting to it, is a
privilege, not a right.
The list operates according to the best practices described
at RFC1855.
Revocation of privileges operates according to an
abbreviated form of BCP83.

The SPF mailing list is intended for constructive
discussion and promotion of SPF.

flawed, please subscribe instead

The SPF standard originated as a hybrid of Gordon Fecyk's DMP
proposal and Hadmut Danisch's RMX proposal. It now provides
a superset of their functionality. More information at

sponsors a white paper titled Sender Authentication: What To Do.

October 2004: Microsoft encourages the publication of SPF
records. Microsoft will use a modified form of SPF, known as
"Sender ID", to check message headers in MUAs. Most other
MTA implementations continue to use SPF in its original form,
to check the return-path at SMTP time.
