There also was a W3C Workshop on the topic. That being said, I can't readily determine what the resolution of those actions were. In any case, I moved the status of issue 7 back to open as it clearly is being actively pursued. As soon as I can find a volunteer to drive this to resolution, an action item will be created. - Sam Ruby
