ints on file has never had any downside.
Having private entities keeping track of me has always seemed far more
threatening than having government keep track. Perhaps that comes
from having lived with benign governments and not-alway-so-benign
private businesses.

v=spf1 records for PRA checks since its initial release in August
2004. I don't know the date for draft-lyon-senderid-core-00, but I

In other words there is consensus among users that not getting spam
matters more than issues like internet transparency.
What happens if IETF consensus and user consensus are in opposition?

I imposed a 5 MB limit here after someone sent a single message of more
than 100 MB to one of our dialup users. This past week I had a user
get upset that we wouldn't accept a 28 MB message he wanted someone to
send him.

The Internet's bandwidth-blessed elite should keep in mind that the
vast bulk of Internet users does not share their go

and they understand.

from an old SLC-96 "slick" and have
a hard limit of 26.4Kbps, making that the most common connection
speed. Getting more bandwidth than that is going to be a major
challenge for a lot of people
That's still only looking at people here in the US.

It also does not break their VPN.
It does keep a lot of martian packets off my network, and in several
instances it has blocked spoofed-source-IP DoS attempts by my users.

sing the best path and
choosing the best source? Arguments that the latter breaks the IP
model are simply arguments that the IP model is broken for today's
Internet and will be even more broken for tomorrow's. The IETF can
fix the model ... or leave that to someone else.

and not even any public discussion.
Only a few months after I first used the net, IP replaced NCP, giving
me an instant impression that network protocols are ephemeral things,
replaceable if they don't measure up. Presumably if they can be
replaced, they can be adapted when necessary.

assigned a subnet had more than 4 addresses in use, so we reduced the
free subnet size (except for grandfathered users).

they can, but who is prepared to say that helpless users don't belong
