In the original message you were responding to, I believe I said that noticing that someone can't update their reverse tree is arguably useful for spam scoring. So perhaps the reason that you aren't seeing more discussion on the part of spam assassins here is not that they aren't represented in the working group, but rather that nothing controversial was said. :')

Personally, I feel that spam scoring is a better example to use in the draft than, say, the ssh example I gave in my earlier email message. But neither can be claimed to be a *requirement* - it's just (1) the case for spam scoring is better, and (2) someone who's considering not populating the reverse tree probably ought to think about the spam scoring case since, apparently, it is being used (if that is true).
