So the quick answer is they'll probably not be combined.
However we probably will offer a combined version of Bill's list and Chris' BigEvil list since they are more similar in character.
Jeff, why not one DNS query that supports multiple result codes:
test: somedomain.com.sc.surbl.org
results:
127.0.0.2 = Spamcop 127.0.0.3 = WS List 127.0.0.4 = BigEvil List 127.0.0.5 = etc...
Same thing multi-test RBLs like AHBL, Sorbs, Blars,
FiveTen, NJABL and
others do.
That's pretty cool. One could even extend that as such (if they don't already):
test: example.com.all.surbl.org ;)
results:
127.0.0.2 = SC List 127.0.0.4 = WS List 127.0.0.8 = BigEvil List 127.0.0.16 = Someother List etc....
Multiple hits for the same lookup could be returned by combining the last octet i.e. a result of 127.0.0.10 would indicate the URI was found in both the SC and BigEvil lists. If one was only interested in what SC found, then one would AND the result with 127.0.0.2
just thinking out loud...
