If that was the last step to resolving it, it might close (one way or the other) one of the 10 remaining open items for moving HTML5 along-- the only item that has a date on it and which has also passed. The Chairs expect that a decision in favor of any ISSUE-30 Change Proposal is likely to lead to a Formal Objection. We believe the approach outlined in the plan may be able to avoid a Formal Objection. This will save time on net, if we can get everyone's buy-in. We also think treating the remaining issues equally is important to getting people to agree with this approach for their own pet issues, which is why we did not suggest singling any out for different treatment.
