Re: Update of Navigation Timing CR draft

Thanks for removing the PERF_NAVIGATION constant. I just checked with
Zhiheng and there are no pending spec updates. Also, based on the
stats for HTTP authentication, as we agreed upon, we will not cover
that case in the current version.

So I think we are on track to move to PR once Karen confirms AI 68 is done.
