Re: [dmarc-ietf] Alternative draft text for draft-ietf-dmarc-arc-protocol

Murray,

This is very helpful, thank you. I find section 7 easier to follow than
Kurt's pseudo code in
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dmarc-arc-protocol-03#section-5.1.1.5.1

Quick bug (I think): In 7.5, you say "If no seals pass validation" but I
think you mean "If all seals pass validation".

Additionally there is a discrepancy between your section 7 item 5 and
Kurt's pseudo code. As I'm reading it, your logic allows a chain with a
cv=pass at i=1 to be valid, and Kurt's does not. I believe Kurt's is
correct, especially based on your definition of the cv=none value in 5.3.1
of your draft.

Thanks! Sure I'll have more feedback soon,

Seth
