Re: Call for feedback on hybrid URI/header proposal

Hi David,

fyi: The agreement in Bellevue on this discussion was that our main goal
is to communicate to what extent a site claims compliance with the
standard.  I.e., it indicates what piece of the compliance doc a site
claims to implement (e.g., 1st party or 3rd party rules).

However, to allow a site to indicate that it does not do any tracking,
we added a "no-tracking" return value. For this one, we now have to
define conditions that are sufficient to claim this flag.

Regards,
matthias
