Description
Blocked on #915.
If we have a Baseline status regression (see #1947), we ought to be transparent with data consumers and developers about why those regressions happened.
Such notes probably ought to have, at a minimum:
- Some sort type information (e.g.
"status-regression"
), so tooling can distinguish them from other kinds of notes. - The date of the status change (e.g.,
"2024-10-15"
), so tooling needn't detect (and authors needn't figure out how to present) when a feature changed. - An explanation of why the status changed (e.g, "A serious bug in [browser] caused this feature to be downgraded from highly available to newly available.", "A data error caused this feature to be wrongly reported as Baseline.", etc.)
- A reference URL (to a browser bug, a compat data change in BCD, etc.)
