New categorization (adding category B):
-
A) REC-level stability -- might be REC, might be CR without an implementation report, or a few bugs in implementations etc.
-
B) reliable CR-level stability -- should be in CR, or close and has usable shipping implementations
-
C) stable spec with limited implementation experience (could be destabilized once we try to implement)
-
D) unreliable spec with shipping, mostly usable implementations
