Is it time now that we all can start doing the same? Having AOL enforcing a 
deadline is one thing, but having AOL and several thousand domains doing it 
will be even more dramatic. I think it is important we show our support for 
AOL as they have shown a great deal of support for us.

Should we set a flag day as a community for SPFv1 compliance at the end of 
summer (Sept. 22 in USA)?

Should we send an email to every postmaster@<domain> who hasn't published 
yet? We would describe SPF, the flag day for SPF, and why they need to 
publish very soon. We could also send instructions on some default 
configurations.

Should we start putting serious pressure on discount DNS providers to allow 
the domain name owners to specify TXT records?

Should we get a hold of eBay and other legitimate forgers and educate them 
on SPF and even do what we can to help them comply?
