I'm taking about these review comments about certain things in the Change Proposal itself not having proper rationale: <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2009Dec/0238.html>. Are you planning to make the suggested changes, and if so, when? If you are planning to make further changes to either the Change Proposal itself or supporting documents, feel free to include those in your time estimate.

Here's the current entry on the status page: <http://dev.w3.org/html5/status/issue-status.html#ISSUE-031>.

We are awaiting revised versions of these before calling for counter-proposals or otherwise moving forward, though at some point we will consider just going what we have and calling for counter-proposals anyway.
