[erkinalp]

This MSC defines several tiers of complying to Matrix specification.

@erkinalp I've reclassified this as a work in progress. There's several pieces missing from this proposal, such as a justification and rationale for the change. A change as critical as this should have a lot of rationale to back it up.

such as a justification and rationale for the change

So, you consider this change as normative?

[turt2live]

It's hard to classify this MSC as anything until it's been written out more completely, other than being a work in progress. At the moment I can't judge the MSC on its merits given it does not present a justifiable case for its own consideration.

I'm unclear what area of the spec this is seeking to change.

I'm also unclear what purpose the change would serve.

This PR smells of timewasting.

what purpose the change would serve.

This MSC seeks to define a standard terminology for how compliant a client or a server is.

[turt2live]

There's still no justification for why we need this.

Added it.

[turt2live]

I'm not convinced that this MSC is founded upon the best intentions to improve Matrix and instead appears as time wasting.
