RE: Call for Consensus to Publish Two Candidate Recommendations - RESPONSE REQUESTED by 26 July 2017

Worldpay support the proposal, though would like to highlight that that the
absence of the ability for merchants to express any preference they might
have for payment ordering might hinder adoption.

Implementers are requested to seek relevant input during the adoption phase,
bringing back any findings to the Working Group.

PROPOSAL

That the Web Payments Working Group request that the W3C Director approve
publication of Payment Request API and Payment Method Identifiers as
Candidate Recommendations.

Please indicate one of the following in your response:

1. Support the proposal.

2. Request some changes, but support the proposal even
    if suggested changes are not taken into account.

3. Request some changes, and do not support the proposal
    unless the changes are taken into account.

4. Do not support the proposal (please provide rationale).

5. Support the consensus of the Web Payments Working Group.

6. Abstain.

We invite you to include rationale in your response.

If there is strong consensus by 26 July 2017 (10am ET) for the proposal, it
will carry.

==========================
About Candidate Rec Status

* A W3C Candidate Recommendation is a document that satisfies the
  Working Group's technical requirements, and has already received
  wide review. W3C publishes a Candidate Recommendation to:

  - signal to the wider community that it is time to do a final review.
  - gather implementation experience.
  - begin formal review by the Advisory Committee, who may recommend
    that the document be published as a W3C Recommendation, returned to
    the Working Group for further work, or abandoned.
  - Provide an exclusion opportunity per the W3C Patent Policy.

For more information, see:
https://www.w3.org/2017/Process-20170301/#maturity-levels

==========================
Formal Objections

* If you wish your LACK of support to publish to be conveyed to the
  Director and reviewed, please include the phrase "FORMAL OBJECTION"
  in your response and be sure to include substantive arguments or
  rationale. The W3C Director takes Formal Objections seriously, and
  therefore they typically require significant time and effort to
  address.

* Silence will be taken to mean there is no Formal Objection.

* If there are Formal Objections, the Chairs plan to contact the
  individual(s) who made them to see whether there are changes that
  would address the concern and increase consensus to publish.

For more information, see:
https://www.w3.org/2017/Process-20170301/#Consensus

===========================
Transition Request Following a Working Group Decision to Publish

* In case of a decision to publish, the Chairs will request approval
  from the W3C Director to publish Candidate Recommendations
  (including review of any Formal Objections).

* A Candidate Recommendation transition request to the Director will provide
information
  required by the W3C Process:
  https://www.w3.org/2017/Process-20170301/#candidate-rec

* The Editors are tracking the required information:
  https://github.com/w3c/browser-payment-api/issues/520
