Re: issue-63 (Re: Comment on ITS 2.0 specification WD - "conformance" Issue Type)

Hi Phil,
We need to reach a resolution on ISSUE-63, on the inclusion of the 
suggested conformance type to the values for lqi type.

As discussed on the 7th Jan call 
(http://www.w3.org/2013/01/07-mlw-lt-minutes.html#item04), to advance 
this we need to find another supporter who'd be willing to implement 
this. Did you find anyone else interested in adding this type?

I suggest we review the status of this on this wed (6th Feb) call, but 
if we can find no one else who is interested then we reject this comment.

cheers,
Dave
