Over the past few months I've developed an patch for Mailman 3, <https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/merge_requests/252> giving it ARC <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dmarc-arc-protocol-09> email authentication capabilities. The work is (99%)completed, and it just needs somebody to do a final review of the ARC functionality itself so I can implement any requested changes.
So at this point we have two complete ARC patches, yours and Aditya Divekar's from last year's GSoC which I mentored, and I'm pretty sure somebody else is working on it. I think somebody else mentioned a patch, too.
I had been working with Barry Warsaw,
I wish he'd mentioned it....
who had done a preliminary stylistic review, and subsequently, I've eliminated all raised issues. The branch is rebased as of last week, and passes all of qa, except one instance, which is something I'd like to discuss with somebody. (It fails a style test for line lengths in a test file which contains a bunch of cryptographic hashes).
I don't understand. Python offers several ways to deal with this, such as
sha_values = ["0123456789012345678901234567890123456789"]
foo(sha_value[0])or if they're really long, adjacent strings will concatenate:
foo("01234567890123456789"
"01234567890123456789")I would think either would be fine, depending on your preferred style. Abhilash Raj (who just received the baton from Barry) would have the final say.
I guess the main question I have at this point is whether you've participated in any of the interoperability testing that the ARC developers have done.
I'll take a look at your MR and see if there are any features that differ across the implementations. Right now I'm buried until the 13th for sure, and more likely until Christmas. I definitely will be able to work on it during the holiday vacation, though.
