Jay,

Sorry my query wasn't clear enough.

I'm not asking about the excuses that a couple of implementers are 
using, many years after a specification was published -- for why they 
have not yet implemented a portion of the spec, 7 years after it was 
published.

You are proposing some language changes and you are claiming that the 
changes will produce much greater implementation.

So I am asking when this has occurred in the past, which would therefore 
provide an empirical basis for believing it likely to happen now.

The point behind the query is to solicit some actual evidence that might 
reasonably counter the 7-year adoption failure of the SPF RR.  Evidence, 
that is, that goes beyond /non-implementation/ excuses.
