A possibly useful compromise is to do what Marco suggested: publish SPF
records for domains like lists.debian.org, where all the mail is coming
from Debian infrastructure.  That can easily be -all.  And then at least
we have the option of moving some of the most important official mail
messages (password reset links and so forth) to a subdomain with -all SPF
records, without affecting the flow of @debian.org mail.

(The same all applies to DKIM, of course, and DKIM is probably more
generally useful these days.  SPF is slowly dying in favor of DKIM most
places.)
