These are independently managed lists. Merging is possible, of course, but we should get some pretty strong consensus to do that, I think. >> Operations > > Not sure which this one is (dkim-ops?). yes. > I'd say this is the general list > for questions about deployment and operations.

"reputation"? No, I hope not. For the moment, we are only talking about the mechanics of creating and interpreting DKIM signatures. I would *very* strongly hope that discussion about the use of domain names for making quality assessments (reputation) would be on an entirely different list. (And, yes, we might need to create one.) Anyhow, is the ops list where the water-cooler self-help consulting should take place? > Are there other potential discussions that wouldn't be covered by these > which warrant having their own venues?
