Examining the objections related to the question as to whether the
candidate FPWD contains enough information to be implemented
interoperably, the chairs found that much of the input on this has
lacked specifics, so at this time we are putting out a call for clear
and specific bug reports to be filed against the Encrypted Media
Extensions component in bugzilla[1] by February 15th.  Once that is
complete, we will seek an recommendation by the EME editors on how to
proceed with these bugs.

I'm not sure that taking discussion off-list into a bug is a good idea, but I filed https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=20944 as requested. If it's not clear and specific enough, please explain why so I can fix it.

There may be some questions/objections regarding the bug. Should I preemptively address them in the bug, or in an email, or will there be a chance to address them when/if they are made by the EME editors?

It's fine to continue discussion of the bug proposal in email, though it should probably be on a technical list rather than on public-html-admin. I would recommend a new thread on public-html-media for email discussion. I think it's usually a good idea to provide more info pre-emptively (either in a bug or in email) but it's also ok to wait to see what questions are actually asked.
