+The squiggle before the "all" means that if an email from you fails, it will be considered a "soft" fail. Technically that means the server should accept it but may mark is as dubious (most likely it will end up the spam folder).

+{{{
+v=spf1 a:spf.mayfirst.org a:viewsic.mayfirst.org ~all
+}}}
 If you send email from May First/People link and you ''also'' send email from a different location (for example, you send email using our email list software for you typically relay your normal email through a different provider), then you will need to create an SPF record that includes both a:spf.mayfirst.org and whatever your other providers has designated for SPF records.
