Publish the thing as experimental and be done with it.

It's not an accident that SMTP and DNS have both been around for 30
years and nobody has ever published mailbox info in the DNS.  It's a
really hard problem with no good solution.  Every approach has
security problems (address guessing), doesn't scale (static zones
particularly if they include address variants), and/or works in ways
the DNS crowd doesn't like (dynamic replies to base32 requests.)
Throughout this argument, there's been nothing new.

It's evident that a few people want to try retrieving keys for mail
messages from the DNS. This allows a way to experiment with it.

R's,
John
