This is the release candidate for what'll go into the Internet-Draft
archive.

Please take a look at it and tell me if you spot any problems.

I would add the word "mechanism" before "processing" in section 3.2 "SPF
Directive Evaluation",

So:

|   If it matches, processing ends and the prefix value is returned as
|   the result of that record.  (The default prefix value is "+".)

becomes:

|   If it matches, mechanism processing ends and the prefix value
|   is returned as the result of that record.  (The default prefix
|   value is "+".)

Otherwise there's a conflict with the modifier definitions, as
"processing ends" would imply that an exp or redirect modifier
wouldn't be processed if it occurred after the matching mechanism.

I don't think there's a conflict inherit in the following though:

|   If it throws an exception, processing ends and the exception value is
|   returned (either "error" indicating a temporary failure, usually
|   DNS-related, or "unknown" indicating a syntax error or other
|   permanent failure resulting in incomplete processing.)
