Re: Styling standardization status

Hi, Lea:

I really like this, assuming it gracefully degrades for accessibility, of
course. I think the rich color will stand out, and we would have different
colors for different statuses, right?

Here are the related issues:

In Skins:

http://project.webplatform.org/skin/issues/1

In Information Architecture:

http://project.webplatform.org/ia/issues/11
http://project.webplatform.org/ia/issues/12
http://project.webplatform.org/ia/issues/13

I think the issues this addresses are Skin issue 1[1] and IA issue 13[2].
But the other two apply as well.

In particular, I think it was Doug who mentioned in a meeting that it would
be great to summarizing browser support next to the standardization status,
so the visitor could get an idea of current production value quickly from
these two pieces of information.[3]

So, adding another banner for implementation status or something might be
worth exploring.

Thanks much!

Julee
