The approval for the Proposed Recommendation (February 28) is pending. I can't tell you more for the moment. The Working Group hopes to have P3P going to Recommendation in the next few month. This said, we don't expect any changes in the Specification anymore. > > My understanding is that P3P is optional now.

I'm not aware of any governmental regulations mandating P3P, but there are states, that want to comply to P3P with all their Web-sites. See the page with the compliant sites for the list we have until now[1]. Regarding industries requiring compliance within the next year I can only speculate about the trust-labels, that will integrate P3P into their work. There is also work under way to include P3P in Codes of Best Practice.(see also the IPSE-Work of CEN[2]) 1. http://www.w3.org/P3P/compliant_sites 2. http://www.cenorm.be/isss/Projects/DataProtection/dp.default.htm Best, -- Rigo Wenning W3C/INRIA Policy Analyst Privacy Activity Lead mail:rigo@w3.org 2004, Routes des Lucioles http://www.w3.org/ F-06902 Sophia Antipolis > > Do any browsers support this out of the box?
