--- Comment #3 from Mark Martinec <[email protected]> --- > Mail::SPF appears to be abandonware, and the bugs for it are adding up. It > depends on the Error module, which explicitly says it should not be used, it > depends on deprecated functions from Net::DNS, and there are a ton of open > issues for it on CPAN. The author appears to be AWOL. Such a critical > portion of SA functionality should not be relegated to abandonware. It would be nice if somebody took active maintainership of this module. Quanah is present on this scene (Amavis + SpamAssassin) for a long time, so I'd be happy with the proposed. As this is an Apache project, changes would still need to be documented in the Bugzilla, subject to lazy consensus, and CLA needs to be observed. In my opinion the more extensive changes should only be applied to the trunk. The 3.4 branch has a couple of important fixes now, so I think it should be released as 3,4.2 sooner rather than later, with no further extensive changes, just essential minimalistic bug fixes. As for Mail::SPF in trunk, the old Mail::SPF::Query (last updated 2006-02) usage can now be ripped out - in favor of Mail::SPF, which itself hasn't seen an update for the last two years (2013-07). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
