Yes, still valid. It's pretty much what I'm using at our site.

The IP distance (hop count) rules may need tweaking if your site
is close to poorly policed ISPs, but it works well in our academic
networks topology.

The BOTNET* rules may need replacing an old DKIM_VERIFIED rule with
a DKIM_VALID, reflecting the change of a rule name with SpamAssassin 3.3.0.

Every little bit helps in fighting spam.  P0f is quite effective
in distinguishing Windows-based botnets from the rest. It is also
quite useful with reducing numerous false positives of a Botnet
plugin, if using it.
