It's seems quite likely that distributed consent mechanisms
(by which I mean that policy origination and enforcement
need not occur at the same place) will require publication of new standards
and protocols. If, that is, we're to expect inter-"vendor" applications.
Some mechanisms which support consent (eg C/R) have a strong requirement
for interoperability standards etc.

Equally, there's scope for producing useful documents covering any class of
anti-spam system which need not actually specify protocols: BCP, "Some
considerations regarding..." etc. You'll be aware that many RFCs do not
specify any protocol.
