I have been nominated and I have accepted.  However, I have choosen
to not run a campaign.

First of all: I have been on holiday, I did not think I should have to
spend much time on the computer.  Time off is good IMHO.  But I'm back
now and am slowly going through all mail and the spf-helpers queue.

Why should I be in the council?  Well, frankly because there may be
a position to fill and nobody is willing to do the job.  In other
words: don't vote me #1 please.

If elected, I will participate and contribute whenever it is required.
I think the SPF community as a whole should determine what to do next,
and how to do it; I view the council as a steering commity, needing
input from spf-discuss.  As such, my personal views do not matter for
the council elections.

Regards,
Alex

Weird Mail::SPF::Query test failure


Hi all,

can anyone make sense of the below Mail::SPF::Query test failure?  It says
it had returned "error", but according to the debug log output, it
resulted in "pass" alright.  I don't get it...  Did I overlook something?

Nor me, but trying to make sense of it I stumbled over a SIGH
why.html error (long quoted line folded by me):

Trying to "see" the latter I get an empty page, my browser is
seriously challenged to make sense of any invalid HTML if this
invalidity is related to anchors / tables / forms.

Sure like hell validator.w3.org found a <table> error

| 1.Error Line 236 column 6: end tag for "TABLE" omitted, but
| its declaration does not permit this.
[...]
| 2.Info Line 37 column 0: start tag was here.
| <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%">

Crazy, from output line 37 up to 42 it manges to open not less
than three tables.  In line 56 after the "pardon our webpage"
it closes one table, but in line 59 it opens the next.
