There is a mention in this draft about it being a product of the 
Anti-Spam Research Group (ASRG), a group that falls under the IRTF ( 
www.irtf.org ).  The guidelines and procedures for IRTF Research 
Groups are described in RFC 2014.

Version 5 of this draft mentions that it represents the consensus of 
the ASRG and the intended status was "Informational".  The intended 
status of Version 6 of this draft was "Standards Track".  As such, it 
would require IETF consensus and be published as an "Individual 
Submission" which has gone through the IETF process.  Version 8 of 
this draft which was submitted after the Last Call has an intended 
status of "Informational".

Dave has a point.  If the drafts from the ASRG are said to be a 
product of the group and represented as the consensus of the group, 
it would be good to seek the group consensus for any changes.  That 
would avoid unneeded "issues".
