What do you think about having a version of “Done” for fully functional, but -webkit prefixed? For example, we’ve implemented all the features of CSS Shapes Level 1, the spec is in CR, but we still have some bugs to fix. I’d assume that would be past the prototyping phase at this point, but not quite Done, given that it’s still prefixed.
