To both Doug and Hector, and others who want to drift in this direction:

As I've said before, the question of moving ADSP to Historic is one
we're taking on its own, and is not connected to anything we do or
don't do with DMARC.  Bringing DMARC into the discussion is a
distraction, and, worse, makes it look like there's a tie-in.  There
is not.

So, please, let's not discuss DMARC as part of the "ADSP to Historic"
conversation.  The issue is purely one of whether ADSP can be shown to
have enough value to maintain it as a Proposed Standard, whether we're
not getting enough value from it, and whether there's harm resulting
from our recommending its use and seeing it poorly used.

Please, everyone: discussions of DMARC in relation to this topic are
out of scope.
