Discussion here seems to have calmed down.  Discussion has begun on
legal-internal.  I have plans to enjoy Indian cuisine with Andy on
Tuesday.

Can I be so bold as to call for a cease fire and for everybody to
enjoy their weekend?

Hi -

Yes, a calm weekend. I checked with the SpamAssassin and JAMES  
projects and they have not really looked into the OSP. SpamAssassin  
does not care about Sender ID, it's obsolete. JAMES thought that the  
OSP was an indication that MSFT has come along, but it was a first  
look, nothing official, just one individual. I sent both threads into  
our list a little while ago.

It was recommended that we contact legal by both projects. I look  
forward to hearing the status of those discussions from Sam.

I also look forward to hearing from Sam and Andy how their dinner was  
and what further strategy may make the most sense.

Regards,
Dave

All sounds very promising to me. Alas I'm on the wrong side of the
Atlantic to join you on Tuesday, but I will be at an event[1] with google
sponsored free beer, so I can't complain too much!
