           Summary: Spec for metadata extensions does not define which
                    states are allowed/conforming
           Product: HTML WG

The spec for meta extensions (currently section 4.2.5.2) defines three statuses
for extensions (Proposal, Accepted, and Unendorsed) and says that conformance
checkers must check the wiki to determine whether a meta name value is allowed.
However, it does not say which of these three statuses count as allowed - is it
only the Accepted status, Accepted and Proposal status, or all three statuses
that count as allowed for validators (and therefore presumably conforming)? The
wiki page does not make this clear either. The spec should be explicit about
this.
