Oracle does not support the substance of the current Web Storage draft [1][2][3]. This is a path-breaking change to the Web applications platform and rushing such a major change without substantive consideration of alternatives is not in its own best interest. Oracle does not see it fit to advance the current draft along the recommendation track Still, we believe that the working group will benefit greatly from the wide review of this draft. Has the chair exhausted all such alternatives such as Working Group Note? At the very least the status needs to be clear about the purpose of publishing the document. A boilerplate status is not appropriate since there are important concerns about the technique used for structured storage in the draft.
