First there is:

"SPF Classic", however, is largely based on:

http://spf.pobox.com/spf-draft-200406.txt

The Schlitt draft of December 2004 updates that specification. Hence, the
Schlitt draft has become known as "SPF Classic" (in contradistinction to
the Lentczner draft).

As per,

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-lyon-senderid-pra-00

(Section 5. Acknowledgements), "The PRA concept was first published in
[CallerID]". Sender-ID is the later name for Caller-ID.

Since SPF has nothing to do with PRA, especially not the "classic"
drafts, saying that Sender-ID = Caller-ID + "SPF Classic", is somewhat of
an odd statement.
