You can read about all of those in
http://archives.listbox.com/spf-discuss(_at_)v2(_dot_)listbox(_dot_)com/200505/0171.html
The first item, SPF(NXDOMAIN) was voted on, but because the result was
a tie, it did not pass.
I hereby drop the issue.
I want to thank all those who participated in discussing it, and I think
the discussion (with all its related threads on the meaning of PermError)
has been very fruitful even though it has not resulted in a change to the
SPFv1 specification.
I have come to the conclusion that SPF(non-existent-domain) == PermError
would be too grave a change for the SPFv1 specification, which is nearing
its final freeze now. I am however determined to bring the issue up again
for a successor specification.
The second item was decided that we should discuss it more here since
we couldn't immediately come up with a good
$SEMANTICALLY_DESCRIPTIVE_NAME.
I'm still working to get the community vote software going. But after the
community vote, there won't be any additional decisions to be made by the
council on the issue, anyway.
