Re: Please Re-Open Issue-47

We've discussed providing a link in the WKR for "additional compliance or audit regimes to which this site complies" and I think that that has real value.  It's clear that as a general standard, we can set the protocol in place, and the basis of what not tracking means, but the W3C will not do formal compliance or audit, and the specification is necessarily geography-insensitive.  Allowing members of bodies such as the DAA to say "and we also comply with the DAA requirements, we satisfy their conformance, and pass their audit", for example, seems to be a goodness, as well as being able to say "we meet the specific requirements of the Turks and Caicos Islands privacy commission".

We have a place in the TPE to allow a Server to respond with further information about their compliance with DNT in human readable form (well-known URI location) which allowed this issue to be originally closed.  I believe we now need a more structured method to indicate a specific compliance regime that a Server is supporting and I’m not sure the current link approach provides enough structure.

This would allow the browser to communicate to users the compliance regime in a more stable fashion (for example, this site supports DAA Compliance requirements).
