Re: Fwd: Re: [spfbis] SPFBIS proposed charter

Thats fine, and yes Extension are Extensions when mean OPTIONAL. So 
anything new added to the RFC bis, MUST NOT be rammed it down people's 
throat using odd readings of RFC 2119. In other words, people are 
still compliant with SPF and SPF BIS while completely ignoring this 
ILLEGAL CROSS BOUNDARY scope extension.  I don't want to see 
statements like you made recently such as:

        "Put another way, you can't claim compliance with this document
         unless you apply the SHOULD, but extant implementations are
         otherwise completely unaffected.

IOW, you CAN NOT make this cross boundary scope extension a SHOULD for 
SPFBIS if you truly believe what you stated.   If you feel 
differently, then this not BIS work but a new protocol and new mandate 
for a new version of SPF - a different protocol.
