Re: "What Base Text to Use for the Do Not Track Compliance Specification"

Good Morning Peter -

Thanks for taking the time to draft this document.

Can you clarify whether this is a working group decision or a chair/W3C
decision? Your document refers to it as the former. However, a  group
decision would seem to suggest that working group member votes were tallied,
but I don¹t see that reflected. Similarly, a number of working group members
objected to both proposals, but I don't see that sentiment reflected in your
decision document either.

If you can provide some additional details, I'd appreciate it.

Alan
