Hi Hector, if you review:

  https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7208.txt

..you'll see at the very top "Obsoletes: 4408".  If there are discrepancies 
between 4408 and 7208, it's best to file an errata (erratum?):   
http://www.rfc-editor.org/how_to_report.html

DMARC implementations are already in the wild and deployed.  Input to the 
existing specification will be largely based on working implementations.  You 
might have your own reasons for waiting for this WG to review the DMARC base 
draft, but if you want to provide input based on operational & implementation 
experience, it's probably best to not wait.
