A W3C Proposed Recommendation is available for the membership of
W3C (including Mozilla) to vote on, before it proceeds to the final
stage of being a W3C Recomendation:

  Canonical EXI
  https://www.w3.org/TR/exi-c14n/
  Deadline for responses: Thursday, May 24, 2018

If there are comments you think Mozilla should send as part of the
review, please say so in this thread.  Ideally, such comments should
link to github issues filed against the specification.  (I'd note,
however, that there have been previous opportunities to make
comments, so it's somewhat bad form to bring up fundamental issues
for the first time at this stage.)

EXI is a compressed binary format for XML; Canonical EXI defines a
way of canonicalizing certain things that might vary between
theoretically-equivalent documents, which is apparently useful for
things like XML Signature.  We don't implemented any of these things
as far as I'm aware.

             Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
             What I was walling in or walling out,
             And to whom I was like to give offense.
