Re: Request for help on follow up items from the last call

Hi Charles,

Thanks for the links.  My confusion came from that there doesn’t seem to be (or, maybe, just isn’t) a way to open issues specifically about CH. 

In the meantime though, I’ve opened issues in the larger `http-extensions` repo addressing the discussed issues:

* CH, Logging and passive tracking / fingerprinting
https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/767

* Data motivating CH ?
https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/768

Best,
Pete

P.S. Thank you for catching that my text was cut off yesterday.  I only meant to say “Brave is unlikely to implement any of this stuff.”
