Greetings,

As we've mentioned in the past, privacy and consumer protection groups not all able to fully participate in the TPWG have formed a Community Group to discuss our drafts. They've recently published a document of comments in response to our FPWDs and some of the more recent changes/discussions in the WG which will be a useful input to our discussions. 

You can read these comments here: http://www.w3.org/community/dntrack/2012/01/14/community-group-comments-on-w3c-dnt/ or in the attached Word document. My apologies this is going out so late -- I've had very little Internet connectivity over the past few days, and unfortunately people wound up waiting on me for this.

We've blocked out a short section of time in the Brussels agenda to introduce these comments on Tuesday and an hour on Thursday for us to start to develop responses. As part of your preparations, please read through the comments before the f2f.

Thanks to John Simpson (Consumer Watchdog) and Lee Tien (EFF) for taking the time to gather and consolidate comments from the NGO community. They note that while content is final, additional signatories may be still be added.

Aleecia
