o    Our testing load to simply verify compliance to the W3C draft is too great 
given the level of detail, the stability of our implementation and the fact 
that the draft is a moving target.

o   The ask here is the level of granularity/ and specificity be reduced. It's 
currently too authoritative in depth. We had signed off on your draft last 
year. This was mostly compatible with IE and FF while being helpful for web 
developers. A simple description of the open call and the types of parameters 
allowed, including which ones are optional would be great.
