Proposed Charter The signatures will use public-key cryptography and will be based on domain name identifiers. Public keys needed to validate the signatures will be stored in the responsible identity's DNS hierarchy. The specifications will be based on the following Internet Drafts: * draft-fenton-dkim-threats * draft-allman-dkim-base * draft-allman-dkim-ssp which represent experimentation and consensus from a number of designers and early implementors. Since experimentation resulted in significant Internet deployment of these specifications, the DKIM working group will make every reasonable attempt to keep changes compatible with what is deployed, making incompatible changes only when they are necessary for the success of the specifications. |
