In another WG the Chair was quite upset when somebody so much as proposed an "informal" meeting. Here it's apparently okay to have unannounced (?)

Better say "(e.g. some mailing list managers inappropriately add unsubscribe info to the body, in addition to or lieu of the header field for this purpose)". The DKIM l= is merely a kludge for an utter dubious practice. > use a length that covers the entire presented message except > for the trailing "--CRLF" characters; this is known as the > "N-4" approach. <http://tools.ietf.org/html/2046#page-22> | multipart-body := [preamble CRLF] | dash-boundary transport-padding CRLF | body-part *encapsulation | close-delimiter transport-padding | [CRLF epilogue] That "4" is a minimum, there could be some junk between "--" and the final CRLF. The best l= tricks would fail if the original Content-Type is not any multipart, e.g. a simple text/html or message/rfc822, and a weird "list manager" transforms it into multipart/mixed.
