Discuss Unified Proposal.

Jatinder: Thank you James for putting the time into formulating this proposal. As per action items from the last conference call, we have been actively evaluating this proposal. We had responded to the mailing list with our concerns: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-web-perf/2011Jun/0055.html
... In general, there are a few main issues. The proposal attempts to create a single interface that all Timings must use for data collection, storage and retrieval. At first glance, the unified interface looked like a very good idea. However, we are concerned that this single interface constrains current and future Timings to be generalized and risks losing, or making it difficult, to have access to functionality specific to that Timing. A widget
... The single, circular buffer is also a large concern, as mentioned in the mailing list.

JamesS: A single buffer isn't required, we can change that.

James: Having an inheritance model will take us part of the way to where I'd like this to be.

Jatinder: I can take an action item to include an inheritance model into our current specification. I will share that proposal on the mailng list.
