On April 20 a Candidate Recommendation of the WARP spec was published  
thus the spec is ready for implementation:

  http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/CR-widgets-access-20100420/

The Implementation Report [IR] is currently just a place holder and  
the test suite [TS] needs work.

Some implementation data for this spec is available at [Impl].  
Additions, deletions, and corrections to this data are welcome!
