We will therefore hold a survey of Working Group members, to determine

The rough survey results should be available in about two weeks. Note
that this will not be a binding vote - it is an attempt to clarify the
general level of support and help determine the best way forward.

So we held the survey, and in the Working Group there was no active
support and a substantial number of objections to the proposal on several
technical points. We will of course look at the ideas that led MS to
consider a completely new approach. Considering each of the issues that
the new proposal was designed to solve is a natural part of the
development of XHR 2.
But as things stand the working group will not adopt XDR as a deliverable.
