How very convenient for you to say that now, several dozen messages after I
observed that the list really _didn't_ need to revive this dumb flamewar.
Thanks so much.
Yours in disgust,

Actually this "dump flamewar" has produced some good discussion regarding
actual implementation issues. Everything that has happened with MIME will
happen again when people try to add cryptography to the structure of the
net. Maybe there are some lessons to be learned here.
ObCrypto: Does anyone know if a ref implementation of the Eastlake and
Kaufman DNS extensions exists? Before I dig into BIND I am hoping that
there might be code out there already....
