<h3>CR exit criteria</h3>
1642+
1643+
<p>As described in the W3C process document, a <a
1644+
href="http://www.w3.org/2005/10/Process-20051014/tr.html#cfi">Candidate
1645+
Recommendation</a> (CR) is a specification that W3C recommends for use
1646+
on the Web. The next stage is <em>Recommendation</em>, when the
1647+
specification is sufficiently implemented.
1648+
1649+
<p>For this specification to be proposed as a W3C Recommendation, the
1650+
following conditions shall be met. There must be at least two
1651+
independent, interoperable implementations of each feature. Each
1652+
feature may be implemented by a different set of products, there is no
1653+
requirement that all features be implemented by a single product. For
1654+
the purposes of this criterion, we define the following terms:
1655+
1656+
<dl>
1657+
<dt>independent <dd>each implementation must be developed by a
1658+
different party and cannot share, reuse, or derive from code
1659+
used by another qualifying implementation. Sections of code that
1660+
have no bearing on the implementation of this specification are
1661+
exempt from this requirement.
1662+
1663+
<dt>interoperable <dd>passing the respective test case(s) in the
1664+
official CSS test suite, or, if the implementation is not a Web
1665+
browser, an equivalent test. Every relevant test in the test
1666+
suite should have an equivalent test created if such a user
1667+
agent (UA) is to be used to claim interoperability. In addition
1668+
if such a UA is to be used to claim interoperability, then there
1669+
must one or more additional UAs which can also pass those
1670+
equivalent tests in the same way for the purpose of
1671+
interoperability. The equivalent tests must be made publicly
1672+
available for the purposes of peer review.
1673+
1674+
<dt>implementation <dd>a user agent which:
1675+
1676+
<ol class="inline">
1677+
<li>implements the specification.
1678+
1679+
<li>is available to the general public. The implementation may
1680+
be a shipping product or other publicly available version
1681+
(i.e., beta version, preview release, or <em>nightly build</em>).
1682+
Non-shipping product releases must have implemented the
1683+
feature(s) for a period of at least one month in order to
1684+
demonstrate stability.
1685+
1686+
<li>is not experimental (i.e., a version specifically designed
1687+
to pass the test suite and is not intended for normal usage
1688+
going forward).
1689+
</ol>
1690+
</dl>
1691+
1692+
<p>A minimum of sixth months of the CR period must have elapsed. This
1693+
is to ensure that enough time is given for any remaining major errors
1694+
to be caught.
1695+
1696+
<p>Features will be dropped if two or more interoperable
1697+
implementations are not found by the end of the CR period.
1698+
1699+
<p>Features may/will also be dropped if adequate/sufficient (by
1700+
judgment of CSS WG) tests have not been produced for those feature(s)
1701+
by the end of the CR period.
