I think I strongly disagree. Requiring that things are indeed completely 
implemented will either result in lots of stuff being taken out, or the 
spec never be done. Both are IMHO non-goals. The agenda is *not* 
comparable to what the WHATWG is doing with HTML.

So what *are* the real issues, then? Have they been raised over here?
