Seth,

Can you clarify your statement regarding scope?  From the IESG recharter
email:

" This instance of the DMARC working group is chartered for the sole
purpose of completing the “failure reporting” document and sending it to
the IESG for publication as a Standards Track item, or removing failure
reporting from DMARC in its entirety"

It would seem to me a discussion of what would be needed to meet
the "completing" part of the recharter.should be in scope.

As far as deciding whether to move forward vs removing references in the
base document, we only have one set of meaningful data provided by Ale.
That data indicates sufficient interest (~64% of domains requesting AUF
reports requesting RUF reports) on the part of
senders/owners/administrators to justify completing the document. We also
know that failure reports are being provided by some large receivers even
if only through back channels based on contractual relationships. It would
be a shame if this working group deprecated the RUF document and ensured
that failure information will only ever be available in a private club//pay
to play model.

AUF reports are very useful in combating abuse..A receiver can identify
attacks in minutes and can also take action in minutes for take downs,
submitting to block lists, etc. AUF reports provide evidence when sending
demand letters threatening legal action against hosting providers for
malicious websites, webpages and image hosting.

With discussion shut down I am getting the sense that the clock is being
run out.
