tracking-ISSUE-239: Should tracking status representation include an array of links for claiming compliance by reference? [Tracking Preference Expression (DNT)]

http://www.w3.org/2011/tracking-protection/track/issues/239

Raised by: Roy Fielding
On product: Tracking Preference Expression (DNT)

I propose an optional member of the tracking status object that will allow the origin server to communicate what (if any) claims it wishes to make regarding compliance to certain behaviors, as defined by reference to other standard resources:

  An origin server MAY send a member named compliance with an array value containing a list of URI references that identify specific regimes to which the origin server claims to comply for the designated resource. Communicating such a claim of compliance is presumed to improve transparency, which might influence a user's decisions or configurations regarding allowed tracking, but does not have any direct impact on this protocol.

    compliance    = %x22 "compliance" %x22
    compliance-v  = array-of-refs
