[ietf-dkim] Requirements on where/how SSP stuff is published...

[Bill.Oxley at cox.com]

According to my DNS admin
"Why are you putting all that crap in DNS? The MTA can do that!! Or use
a web page!"
Just passing along a reaction I got.
Thanks,

Folks,

We all (or almost all) seem to be assuming that the DNS is the
place to put SSP stuff.

I just wanted to raise the question to see if that's a requirement
or just a near-accidental part of the current design proposals.

So is using the DNS in fact necessary? If it is, we may need text
that explicitly says why at some stage.

If not, what are our requirements for where/how to publish SSP
stuff?

Stephen.
