Why not dump ISSUE-45 altogether because the response header is already that commitment. I'm very concerned that the semantics of the response header (that is context dependent) and the semantics of that public statement mismatch and create confusion and damage. So I vote for silence. The inquiries about fooling IE's P3P implementation have shown that technical tokens are enough to make a statement. And authorities look into that statement and what they mean. Concerning the choice of regimes, this is not for DNT. This is for a next iteration of some kind of P3P like technology that we can explore in the workshop. DNT can only be DNT (said to be W3C DNT in the thread). P3P was an engine to produce buckets. DNT is a bucket. You could even express it in P3P vocab. Consequently I don't think 73 new emails on ISSUE-45 will buy us much. David's aim will fail because of a deep glitch produced by a technology choice made very long time ago: Sending a user preference first. DNT is the wrong technology for the choice of privacy regimes.
