This article has the state of these drafts stated incorrectly.

See:
http://www.imc.org/ietf-mxcomp/mail-archive/msg03062.html

There is a last call coming but there is no assurance Sender-ID will
escape this process.  Judging by remaining flaws, I doubt that it will. 
CSV will go to last call in October.  I think its prospects are better.

There are also work ongoing in MASS such as BATV.

See:
http://www.ietf.org/ietf/04aug/mass.txt
This agenda has been amended to include BATV.

It will be a draft written by Dave Crocker, John Levine, Sam Silberman,
and Tony Finch.  This will stop the bounces and virus notices without any
help from the far end.

I would also expect the Submitter draft in Sender-ID to be dropped.
