Re: Poll text call: final text by 28 September

Aleecia,

In reviewing this to provide feedback, it occurs to me that it relies on 
the definition of unlinkable, which is still very much up for debate. 
How can companies weigh in on these options without understanding what 
the requirements actually are? We should postpone this poll until we 
define unlinkable so that companies can give realistic feedback 
regarding the time and effort needed to meet the requirements.

Thanks,

David

I want to make sure we have the text right to reflect our options prior to doing a decision process with a poll calling for objections, which is responsive to Ian's feedback. We also want to move quickly, as Roy suggests.

We will briefly review these texts on the call tomorrow, just to make sure no one misses anything, and here we are on the mailing list, for those who cannot make the call.

We will also want non-normative text, and have some suggested, but that will be clearer once we have the normative text settled. (Options for definitions of unlinkable data are in section 3.6, Unlinkable Data, <http://www.w3.org/2011/tracking-protection/drafts/tracking-compliance.html#def-unlinkable>.)

They MUST provide public transparency of their data retention period, which MUST have a specific time period (e.g. not infinite or indefinite.) During this time, operators may render data unlinkable (as described above) or perform processing of the data for any of the other permitted uses.
