I think when most spammers publish SPF records, we will have won.

I'm waiting to see the first one that publishes

Well, publishing "+all" certainly would be a lot simpler.
All that, however, doesn't matter, because we can just blacklist the
domain in question if spam originates claiming to be from there. If the
spammer says "+all", i.e. "everyone can use my domain", we don't need to
accept messages from that domain at all.
