Re: [Public WebGL] EXT_float_blend
Please consult "Extension Development Process":
https://www.khronos.org/registry/webgl/extensions/
Extension Development Process
Extensions move through four states during their development: proposed, draft, community approved, and Khronos ratified. Every extension should advance to Khronos ratified. If an extension cannot advance through the extension process it can be rejected.
- Proposed extensions are intended for discussion on the public WebGL mailing list, in order to move to draft status; they should not be implemented, even under a vendor prefix. If consensus is reached in the community, the extension can be moved to draft status.
- Draft extensions may be implemented under a vendor prefix or behind a run-time option for experimentation purposes, in order to gain experience with the extension before finalizing it. Draft extensions should not be exposed by default by WebGL implementations. Once consensus is reached in the community, the extension can be moved to community approved status.
- Community approved extensions should be implemented without a vendor prefix. When a draft extension moves to community approved status, any existing implementation should immediately remove support for any vendor-prefixed extension name. Once implemented by a vendor, support should not be removed unless there is a serious issue with the extension, such as a security flaw.
- Khronos ratified extensions are those community approved extensions which have been voted upon by the Khronos Board of Promoters.
- Rejected extensions should never be implemented. An extension enters rejected status because consensus on it could not be reached at the proposal stage or technical difficulties arise during implementation at the draft stage. A community approved extension can only be rejected in extraordinary circumstances. A Khronos ratified extension cannot be rejected.
-----
The extension has been in proposal since April 2015 with no change. It has to be assumed that no more specification work is going on with that extension. If that is so, then this is a finalized specification in proposal. If it is a finalized specification in proposal and you are unwilling to promote it to draft, then it is a contentious extension. If it is a contentious extension, it has to be rejected.
Do you wish to reject this extension?
