I created this as a “.policy”, but unfortunately left out the new Content-Type 
that would need to be declared.  The idea of the rough draft was really to give 
folks an idea of what it would like, and stir the discussion.  We could 
obviously change this to something that is more well-known (txt or similar) so 
that we don’t need to do this.

Subject: Re: [Uta] MTA-STS: A Key-Value Alternative

Is there a proposed Media Type/Content Type header value for this (can't see 
one in the diff)? One of the nice things about JSON is that web servers are 
likely to serve .json files as something appropriate out of the box.

Hello,

The authors of the MTA-STS draft and the UTA group have been attempting to 
reach a consensus on the issue of JSON versus KV for the policy file that is 
served via HTTPS.   In order to attempt to get over that issue, we've made a 
rough draft[1] that now uses key-value pairs instead of JSON.  Overall, our 
preference would be to stay with JSON as the alteration will break existing and 
in-progress implementations, but we'd really like to move forward.  We'd like 
to work toward a conclusion and welcome comments from the group.
