The purpose of the document is to convey technically how PSD DMARC can be accomplished rather than who can or cannot undertake this due to policy considerations. As the operator of .BANK and .INSURANCE, fTLD initiated this stream of work with the IEFT because of the explicit prohibition by ICANN from inserting TXT records in the DNS. The goal is to get to an RFC that specifies the technical aspect of PSD DMARC and ultimately seek ICANN's approval to allow publication of such a record in the DNS. In contrast, gTLDs not under contract with ICANN such as .MIL and .GOV, who are both involved in this work, do not have a contractual relationship with ICANN and thus are not prohibited from this activity, and the same goes for ccTLDs.
