Hi Dean, that was intentional. As presented at F2F 64, the Chrome Root Program intended to scale back future presentations. We will be at the meeting, but will not be presenting. 

Thank you

-Chris

Thanks for letting me know.

 

Don’t you have anything to say about the recently released Chrome policy 1.8? There will likely be questions so even if you don’t have a presentation, can we leave the slot in for that discussion, if needed?

Thanks
Dean
