I'd argue "Let's just make the rules 3.4 only" in comment 13 would imply a -1
by KAM. Imply, neither one is a vote.

If others actually "believe there was previous consensus", they might recall
the same discussions I do.

As you just said, these are EXISTING releases.

sa-update can even introduce new plugins, code. Disabled by default in the
client. Because that would take it too far, in any but tightly managed site
internal processes. Similarly, in my not so humble opinion, introducing new
DNSBLs via sa-update to existing releases would take it too far.

Anyway, for the formal part:

+1 for adding Mailspike to 3.4

-1 on adding any new DNSBL via sa-update to existing releases, but strictly
   limit this on actual releases with README and release notes
