[ietf-dkim] Jim's issues - one more try

[Hallam-Baker, Phillip]

> Let's try get back to Jim's issues. What we need to do is 
> help get ssp-00 out so that we have an I-D as a basis for discussion.

> (1) Use of XPTR records for SSP.  The idea here is to create 
> a more general policy mechanism that can be used by WS-* and 
> such.  There were about 20 messages discussing this from 5 
> people.  I'm not reading a clear consensus on this.
> 
>     Issue#1: +1 - include use of XPTR as part of ssp-00
>     Issue#1: -1 - exclude use of XPTR from ssp-00

+1

> (2) SSP record type (TXT vs. something new). Only 4 messages 
> in discussion, mostly saying "if you support TXT, don't 
> bother with anything else."  Again, no clear consensus.
> 
>     Issue#2: +1 - Define how to use a TXT RR for SSP policies (with or
>                   without something else)
>     Issue#2: -1 - Don't use TXT at all, only use new RRs for SSP

+1

> (3) Upward query vs. wildcard publication.  27 messages in 
> discussion from 15 people.  Most of the discussion was a 
> rehash of the idea of associating semantics with DNS 
> zone-cuts, which we had already discussed and rejected.  I 
> have also been trying to get an opinion from DNSOP on the 
> idea of a one-level upward search (which I think solves 90% 
> of the problem), but haven't gotten any response.

>     Issue#3: +1 - Define an upward query based approach to finding SSP
>                   statements
>     Issue#3: -1 - Define a wildcard based approach to finding SSP
