RE: Approve overview of testing in view of permissive CR exit criteria

I do not believe that data is available.  The data in the document Robin produced is based on a F2F discussion that the HTML WG had in April.

As per [1]:
Judgment level
For features that are well known to be widely implemented and deployed, and where implementations are believed to match the specification, the Working Group will assume effective real-world interoperability without testing. For features that are known not to be implemented at all, or unlikely to have multiple implementations during the CR period, the Working Group will not invest significant effort in testing. For features where the interoperability level is uncertain, the Working Group will create a sufficient test suite to make a judgment call; 100% pass rate will not necessarily be required. In any case where the judgment is debatable, it will be a Working Group decision whether sufficient interoperability has been achieved.

So in the "judgment" of the HTML WG members that were at the F2F the sections marked "Considered interoperable" and color coded in green are interoperable.  This CfC is to determine if we can get consensus on that "judgment".

Paul,

Is there somewhere a table that indicates which (of at least) two implementations are considered to be interoperable for the green-shaded features in http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tests-cr-exit.html?

Just in case we would like to double-check before the 15th, this will help shortcut the testing time, and I assume that these claims are based upon some evidence that specific implementations are interoperable.

Thanks,
Bryan Sullivan

Subject: CfC: Approve overview of testing in view of permissive CR exit criteria


This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to approve the parts of the following document that indicate which parts of the HTML5 specification can be considered interoperable as per the permissive CR exit criteria [1].  The items subject to this CfC are marked "Considered interoperable" and color coded in green in the document:



http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tests-cr-exit.html



Silence will be taken to mean there is no objection, but positive responses are encouraged.   Objections should be made to specific entries in the document.  Objections of the form "features in 2.8.2.1 HTMLAllCollection are not currently interoperable" MUST be accompanied with specific evidence of non-interoperability, otherwise such objections will not be accepted by the Chairs.



If there are no objections by Monday July 15, this resolution will carry.
