Some progress on the website front.  The spf.pobox.com domain is now
pointing to the box that Julian and I are working on for the website.
It is currently still running *exactly* the same code as the old
spf.pobox.com site.  We want to change one variable at a time.

Thank you, thank you, for addressing the website problem.

Question, is there another alias for the site that does not say 'pobox.com'?

I saw some domains offered here on the list, but I haven't seen any mention
of actually pointing any of them to it.

Pobox.com is not always exemplary of proper SPF behaviour.  Other
than that, I don't mind giving them credit for sponsoring SPF.  But a
neutral name would be better, and then list pobox.com as a founder/sponsor
on the site.

When you finish your careful "First, do no harm" approach, the first thing
I want to see fixed is the language about SenderID.  It shouldn't be 
critical of SenderID, but should make it clear the SID is about a
completely different (and patented) identity from a different RFC, and while it
might share a common infrastructure with spf2.0, it is not at all compatible
with or an extension of spf1.

I also second the recommendation from Scott Kitterman concerning the
language for the forwarding "problem".
