Proposed Standard Date: Mon, Aug 19, 2013 at 04:05:49PM -0000 Quoting John 
Levine (johnl(_at_)taugh(_dot_)com):
* The charter disallows major protocol changes -- removing the SPF RR type
is a direct charter violation; since SPF is being used on the Internet. ...

Uh huh.

Yes.  The TXT specification is 

"TXT-DATA        One or more <character-string>s.

TXT RRs are used to hold descriptive text.  The semantics of the text
depends on the domain where it is found."

        (RFC 1035 section 3.3.14.)

There is nothing syntactially worng with those entries. I congratulate
people advocating SPF in TXT records while also writing parsers.
