> I will follow up with browser vendors

In your original email you implied there was more than one browser vendor to contact.  Can you provide a status report on any other browser vendor blocking bugs?

all the tests for drawFocusIfNeeded are done.

addHitRegion is the implementations have too long to go whereas drawFocusIfNeeded has some minor bugs that need to be fixed in the browsers.

Mark has agreed to finish these getting those bugs fixed with the browser manufacturers.

Background: HTML Canvas 2D Context is in Candidate Recommendation:

  http://www.w3.org/TR/2dcontext/


The plan, as of September 2014, was to have "All tests will be written
and run by the end of the month":


https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-canvas-api/2014JulSep/0033.html


The status, as of January 2015, is that a number of tests have yet to be
written (search for TODO):

   https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/Canvas_Task_Force/CR-Test


Additionally, many of the tests that are currently written are failing.

After discussions with my co-chair (Paul Cotton) and the W3C domain lead
(PLH), the time has come to recommend that features for which we don't
have passing tests be deferred to HTML Canvas level 2.

I encourage everybody who would like to propose an alternate plan do so now.
