I don't know anyone who thinks the way that Yahoo and AOL are using DMARC 
is a good idea.

But you're nuts if you think that every Mailman list is going to kick off 
every Yahoo and AOL user, no matter how much the two providers might 
deserve it.  As I said, some of us run lists to get work done rather than 
to make a political point, and the only way to continue to get work done 
at this point is to route around the DMARC damage somehow.

We're deep enough into tin-foil hat territory here that we're done. 
Should you want to know what AOL and Yahoo are actually doing, see the 
most recent entry in my blog at http://jl.ly/
