kalyanaj has just labeled an issue for https://github.com/w3cping/privacy-request as "REVIEW REQUESTED": == Trace Context 2022-09-29 == The Privacy IG prefers groups to complete a self-review around the time of FPWD. See https://w3ctag.github.io/security-questionnaire/. If you still want us to review your spec, please provide the information below. In the issue title above add the document name followed by the date of this request. - name of spec to be reviewed: Trace Context Level 2 - URL of spec: https://services.w3.org/htmldiff?doc1=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FTR%2Ftrace-context-1%2F&doc2=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FTR%2F2022%2FWD-trace-context-2-20220929%2F - Does your document have an in-line Privacy Considerations section, ideally one separate from Security Considerations? Yes - Do you need a reply by a particular date? We are looking to get into recommendation stage before end of year. - Please point to the results of your own self-review (see https://w3ctag.github.io/security-questionnaire/ , https://w3c.github.io/fingerprinting-guidance/, https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6973): https://github.com/w3c/trace-context/issues/496 - Where and how to file issues arising? https://github.com/w3c/trace-context/issues/ - Pointer to any explainer for the spec? Explainer: https://github.com/w3c/distributed-tracing-wg/blob/main/EXPLAINER.md. Other comments: **What**: The main difference from Trace Context Level 1 (which is already in recommendation status) is the ability to express whether at least a part of the traceID has been randomly (or pseudo-randomly) generated. **Why**: This enables downstream systems to use the trace ID for sampling purposes or for sharding purposes. **How**: This is achieved by the introduction of a new flag called "Random Trace ID flag". If the newly introduced random-trace-id flag is set, at least the right-most 7 bytes of the trace-id MUST be randomly (or pseudo-randomly) generated.
