Hi Jonathan, while composing the agenda for today, I have realised that your concern of an insufficient user experience for agreeing to exception (the race to the bottom) is somewhat independent of ISSUE-187: - In the "old" approach to exceptions, we need some guidance to prevent that some BROWSERS store exceptions without asking the user - In the "new" approach to exceptions, we need some guidance to prevent that some SITES store exceptions without asking the user I see this as a valid concern for both approaches to exceptions (and similarly also for the initial gathering of preferences). As a consequence, I suggest the following way forward: - We create a new ISSUE on "Rules for sufficient user interaction to ensure that a user actually agrees with an exception" (or a similar wording) and include this as OPEN in the database and the current TPE draft - I will try to close ISSUE 187 while stating that this new issue needs resolving (but that we overall try to work towards the new approach to exceptions). I hope that this addresses your concern of a "race to the bottom" while still giving the group a stable path for the exception framework. Would this work? If yes, I will send a mail to the announce list to formally implement this down-scoping of ISSUE-187. Regards, matthias
