"reasonable overview"?!?!?!?
AOL's discussion of SPF is as full of outright lies and mis-truths and
false propaganda as it it could possibly be and not invite direct legal
challenge. (i.e. it's no better and no more truthful than any other :-)
Luckily one need not do anything at all since AOL's proposed use of SPF
will be effectively transparent to everyone who already sends their
e-mail from a recognized static address using proper DNS and hostnames.
AOL cannot realistically refuse mail from domains without published SPF
junk in their TXT records as doing so would result in an almost instant
mass customer revolt and they are not that stupid.
Do not fall for their FUD.
