[wbs] response to 'Call for Review: Linked Web Storage Working Group Charter'

The following answers have been successfully submitted to 'Call for Review:
Linked Web Storage Working Group Charter' (Advisory Committee) for Mozilla
Foundation by Tantek Çelik.


The reviewer's organization abstains from this review.

Additional comments about the proposal:
   We had several formal objections to the formerly proposed Solid Working
Group Charter, and are happy to see most of them addressed in this update.

Based on the good faith updates in this charter proposal, the incremental
improvements to the Mission, Motivation and Background, the narrower Scope
and Deliverables descriptions, we are optimistic that further improvements
could be made as a result of both additional direct feedback and
coordination with the W3C Groups listed.

The changes to the Dependencies section are an improvement, however it's
not clear if "adopt the following dependencies as input documents" is
implying that they are included in the Charter as potential
Recommendation-track deliverables, or if there is an intent to instead
incorporate them into the one deliverable listed "Linked Web Storage
Protocol v1.0". We are ok with this wording for now because the subsequent
section "Adding new Recommendation-track deliverables" is more clear about
the intention to "propose an updated Charter that differs only in
deliverables" if necessary, and should that happen, we would like to see
any additional deliverables be given more meaningful names similar to the
one deliverable named in this charter.

We are still skeptical that the proposed deliverable(s) will be able to
address the user problems noted in the Mission, Motivation and Background
sections. We also agree with the concerns raised by the Center for
Democracy and Technology. However we are hopeful that attempts to better
understand the problems noted and a variety of alternative approaches may
help explore the broader solution space, and provide a source of insights
for better solutions. Thus we abstain overall.
