No, what I'm saying is that the way things were ten years ago pushed the SPF community to the place it's in now, ugly as it is. SPF, in the interim, has become very widely deployed. Suddenly now we have a few voices from the ivory tower asserting that the same community needs to go out and re-do things the way they should have been done in the first place, now that we finally have a somewhat more reasonable perspective, even though some of the vestiges of ten years ago are in fact still around. My reaction to that is "You can't be serious." That doesn't sound like revenge at all to me, just pragmatism. > > The deployed SPF base probably won't give a damn if the IETF suddenly > releases an RFC that exclaims "Everybody migrate to type 99!" > > Yep.

Seems to me this is a perfectly good subject for another such project. One may counter that by saying nobody will pay attention to such a document, but I submit that it's our primary mechanism for making sure mistakes aren't re-made, so that's the tool we have to use or not use. If we do the opposite and somehow compel SPFBIS to favour type 99 over TXT, then I still think we'll be shouting that to an audience that will think we're nuts and simply go about their business. -MSK
