This was a concern for us as well. So when we posted the 2.1 update, we wrote an explanation to all foundries which had offered support (at that time, the list grew since then. We pointed out that we'd understand retraction if the support was contingent on browser support of <allow>. We haven't received any news of foundries retracting support for .webfont. We did receive replies re-confirming support. I know this is a very open ended and informal poll, but I think one can interpret it that there was no public outcry amongst foundries because of dropping allow in the 2.1 proposal. Erik
