Chris, Julian,

You said "yes" to:

"Should a revised charter be reviewed by the W3C membership per section
5.3 Modification of an Activity of the W3C Process document?"

Note the request just below the question:

  "If so, please suggest specific changes in a comment."

Would you please suggest some specific changes that would satisfy you?

Likewise, Sam, you wrote:

  Please treat this answer as if it were "yes, but only if the
  charter was modified first".

Please suggest a change that would satisfy you.

While I'm uncomfortable about rampant scope creep, and uncomfortable about a monolithic standard, I think that objections without constructive proposals should merely be noted and should not otherwise impede further progress.

Note that since there isn't consensus to accept a
canvas requirement, it's up to the chairs to figure out whether
the question carries. I'd like to know if there's a straightforward
charter change that will satisfy the dissenters while I'm thinking
it over and talking it over with my co-chair in the next few days.

Given that there is evident widespread support for this feature, and no specific proposals to revise the charter have surfaced, I would like to amend my vote at this time to be an "abstain".
