It occurs to me why this is still DKIM -- the external interface is
the same.  You call a DKIM verifier by, roughly, giving it a mail
message, and it tells you what the d= was on the valid signatures.
That doesn't change.  Anything that uses DKIM v1, whether it's DMARC
or a Spamassassin plugin, uses v2 the same way.

On the signing side, the signer has the new option of adding a conditional
signature, but all of the old options still work.

R's,
