It's not a sudden rush. :-)  The specification is going to be 
implemented in an open source project.  The only proposed changed 
(see above) is the privacy and tracking discussion.  Nobody has 
submitted a more general draft.  It seems odd to have to wait for a 
session in Berlin when there isn't any concrete proposal being 
discussed on the mailing list.
