This is a very substantial rework of the DKIM "dns" document.
It now covers DKIM1 and DKIM2 (with the intent being that no-one
who is working with keys need read the DKIM1 document (or the
two subsequent RFCs that amend it) again.
Various tag have not turned out to be of much use (and/or to have been
used much) so they are now deprecated. DKIM1 is unchanged, the
tag values still have the protocol impact they always did, but
there is no longer any suggestion that setting them is wise.
Note that the testing flag is one of the things deprecated. Since some
sites will reject your mail if you set it and others don't care then
setting the flag has impacted deliverability for some time. viz: in this
case interworking is seriously impacted. If you want to test then find a
friend to send your mail to -- don't spray it all over the Internet.
(Steve can come and plug his testing system if he wishes, or any other
folk who operate such infrastructure).
The suggestion at the interim would be that we would look to do a last
call on -spec and -dns Real Soon Now. So I recommend reading both ASAP.
Publishing new versions won't be possible after midnight UTC tonight for
a couple of weeks... but we can accumulate requests in the meantime.
