Ben:

Please tell us which of these activities has higher priority:

1) The DMARC and alias code.  Recall that this was perviously blocked by the version of Mailman that were we using, and the upgrade last Tuesday included an upgrade to Mailman.

2) The IDnits for bit RFC 2119 and draft-leiba-rfc2119-update boilerplate.

The IESG would like to see IDNits accept the new boilerplate as soon as possible, while continuing to allow the old boilerplate for the time being. At some point in the future, the IESG will request the old boilerplate to no longer be accepted.
