What's frustrating for me is this experiment is easy to run. I did
it 20 years ago. Bringing data to the table would be extremely
helpful as to whether the goals are worthwhile. They are not the
same goals I had, but such an experiment could pretty easily be
run to justify the effort. AFAIK, that hasn't been done.
I don't want us to stray too far from chartering yet, so to keep it on
track: I think we're coming to agreement on the idea that there's
something here that should be explored, understanding that might
result in further development and it might result in a decision to
abandon this line of thinking. Is that correct?
I think re: charter, it's perfectly valid to question why. It's not like
this hasn't been bumping around for a long time. That's especially true
since it seems like a lot of the people behind this seem to believe that
DKIM is inadequate to be upgraded. After 20 years of operational and
deployment existence that is a tall barrier to replace it, where without
explicit and definable benefits we won't see any uptake.
FWIW, I'm not arguing against this. I just don't understand the urgency,
and why the urgency is now... urgent. I think we are owed an
explanation, and experimental data would be extremely useful to justify it.
