We have recently transitioned to using github issues to track internally. Our review radar will list the labels we are using for your documents so that you can find any issues we are discussing internally.

I don’t think we have any specific requests at this time. You will find that there are a lot of open issues in the specs, as we resolve them we may be able to be more specific with requests to you.

So far this is the best estimate of our milestones:
 https://www.w3.org/Payments/WG/charter-201510.html#deliverables

There are more specs coming as well.

We are aiming to meet FTF in July. I think having comments before July would be useful. If that’s not possible, then the next good opportunity is TPAC.

Thank you!
