Speaking of RFC-3098, how does everyone feel about making a quick
amendment and resubmitting? We've gotten some good feedback and
suggestions that would indicate that perhaps something is missing. In
the discussion, we neglected to include a mail-loop approval, which
essentially prevents the activity of an opt-in request until the
requestor actually does something (click on a link, reply to the
message, etc...). This shifts the responsibility from the user (having
to deal with unauthorized subscriptions) to the list owners (having to
verify each address prior to inclusion). It's a MAPS-endorsed
protection, and I think it warrants inclusion in some text from the
IETF.

I'd be happy to make the changes and present it to the group and up
the chain for resubmission, but I'd like to see what Sally, April and
the group have to say about it.

On another note, I've been asked to speak at SPAMCON regarding this
subject and Responsible Use, from the business perspective as well as
the policy perspective. Anyone have any points they'd like to see
included?
