I guess you mean ARF/MARF (RFC 5965; http://www.ietf.org/dyn/wg/charter/marf-charter);
yes, makes sense to handle the details therein.
Of course ARF/MARF as well depends on a abuse contact,
so we need a mandatory standard to follow, and therefore the
current proposal of the wg should be ratified as soon as possible.
