Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] User-Agent Client Hints & UA Reduction (#640)

Hi - 

We are going to close this review with an outcome of "satisfied with concerns."  In the main, we are happy with this proposal including the proposed use of client hints to make up for the lack if discoverability via the UA string. 

The concerns we still have are about multi-stakeholder, compatibility and standardisation venue.

We are concerned about multi-implementation. We would like to see this taken up by other user agents.

We would like to the proposers to ensure that they are receptive to the concerns raised in the community regarding web content compatibility. We urge you to be transparent about publishing results of studies regarding compatibility. We also encourage the community to raise concerns in a transparent and dispassionate manner.

Although we're satisfied that the client hints spec itself is on a firm standards track footing, we're concerned about the venue for the standardisation of the **ua-client-hints** spec. We would like to see the **ua-client-hints** spec move to a proper w3c working group such as Web Applications.
