So I see two important messages here and I trust there is consensus on 
these ...

1. If you want to actively contribute to W3C testing efforts, join 
public-test-infra.

2. If you want to actively engage with developers, contribute to 
WebPlatform.org.

Re new scope, depending on how one squints, I think CoreMob was 
originally mostly about "minding the gaps". As such, I recommend merging 
this group and Dom's public-closing-the-gaps group. ATM, there is 100% 
overlap between these two groups regarding people that have submitted 
something to the gaps list. It seems like it will be mostly make work to 
try to rationalize the two groups so it would be more efficient to just 
merge the efforts  now.

Re continued spec work, does anyone have any real data about how the 
CoreMob spec was actually used (other than as an input to 
public-test-infra)? For instance did any proprietary browser vendor or 
OSS browser engine implement feature X/Y/Z specifically because that 
feature/spec was listed in CoreMob?

Re IG vs. CG, I can see +/- both ways but it seems to me that the most 
efficient thing to do is to continue this group as is and rather than 
debate group structure, spend energy on #1 or #2 above or The Gaps stuff.
