It was good to be part of the meeting, and hear people directly. It seems  
as if we talked about standards in different ways though, so let me  
clarify my stance. Publishing a recommendation carries several meanings:

1) User agents wishing to implement this feature are recommended to use  
this spec
2) User agents wishing to be compatible, are recommended to follow this  
spec exactly
3) This spec is stable, and intended to be used on the web for a long time
4) Web developers are recommended to use this spec
5) Web developers may expect this spec to be/become supported in user  
agents

For Navigation Timing, I fully support 2), but I don't think we should  
promote any of the other points.
