Re: Today's call: summary on user agent compliance

Hi Ian/Jonathan,

this may be a misunderstanding. I interpret Ian's (short) sentence the
following way

a) A site can choose whether to implement compliance with the DNT spec
or not
    [However, if I understand the US legal system correctly, it must not
wrongly
      claim to have implemented the specs while doing something else]
b) We agreed that a standards-compliant site is free how to service
DNT;1 customers as long as they satisfy the
   requirements in our specs. As a consequence,
    a site may comply by sending all DNT;1 users to a landing page that
requires to grant an exception.
    Whom to send to such landing pages and for what reasons is up to the
site to decide.
    [However, our current approach mandates that this landing page
complies with our spec]

Jonathan/Ian: Do you agree that my words reflect our current agreements?
Feel free to comment.


Regards,
matthias
