We have come to a point in our discussions of
draft-ietf-dmarc-dmarcbis that the basic content and features of DMARC
are stable and have rough consensus.  Coupling that with the
expectation, as in the working group's charter, that changes to the
protocol that break interoperability with installed base need detailed
justification, I think we need to be clear on how to go forward as we
finish up.

At this point, again, we consider the content and features to be
stable, and changes to that are no longer in scope.  Of course, if we
find real problems, things that don't work as intended and need
fixing, those need to be raised.  But anything that goes to "Hey, I
have an idea...," or "I really wish this worked differently," becomes,
at this point, an impediment to progress, given the extensive
discussion we have already had.

Second, as you can all see from my own comments on
draft-ietf-dmarc-dmarcbis we are now at the stage where comments on
the text need to be accompanied by suggestions of specific text
changes.  If there's something you think isn't right, please raise it
as an issue and be specific about what you want changed and why,
preferably in an "OLD/NEW" sort of format so that (1) it's absolutely
clear and (2) others can easily discuss the proposal and tweak the
wording as needed.

I believe we're very close to being done with this document.  Let's
work on finishing it up and then getting the other documents finished
as well.

Barry, as chair
