I'm not sure.

Basically, I think we're in a sucky situation here:

1)  These are specs that we'll need to implement.
2)  We were not involved in their drafting or implementation so far (not 
least because they were rushed through and we just don't have the 
bandwidth to deal with all the little bits of that WG as far as I can tell).

3)  We can't just vote no on the PR based on that.

Our best bet is presumably to hope that the basic concepts are sound and 
that once we start implementing we can get the inevitable spec 
bogosities fixed via errata.


And for the future, again, to make it someone's job to follow what's 
going on in this WG.  :(



At this point I'm inclined not to respond to the vote.


That seems pretty reasonable, yeah...

There are specs that expose these entries too, so this is not 
implementation detail but something we'll need to end up implementing 
when Facebook and company start using it for telemetry.

I'll take a closer look at it. Will be interesting to see how this fits in with 
what we're planning, but so far, we didn't plan on taking it into account.

JSON-LD

I’ve been aware of these proposals. Honestly, there’s not a lot of meat in the 
performance timeline proposal and one of the editors doesn’t appear to be 
actively involved anymore.

IMO, this is implementation detail for describing the data structures used by a 
timeline “entry”. I’m not sure how important a cross platform specification is, 
but would entertain the idea if there were good uses for it.

I don't know how well (or if at all) the current push for performance
devtools is coordinated with these proposals, but it would certainly be
worth looking into that.

Have we had anyone at all review these specs?  My past experience with 
that working group and set of editors doesn't make me sanguine about 
them producing specs that can actually be implemented without 
reverse-engineering IE or Chrome


If we _haven't_ had someone look at these before, we should do that now. 
 And we probably need someone whose job description includes 
sanity-checking the stuff this working group produces.
