manu: PR to deprecate digest SRI - lots of +1s but also a push back on the issue
… raised a number of things, don't want to merge right now because it feels like he is objecting, would be good for others in group to chime in
… main concern with objections is that they are not technical in nature
… we've got to do something with the PR and issue, other opinions would be helpful in the thread

Brent: we do not have consensus to merge the PR (chair hat on) - implemented against DigestSRI our changing the spec now or changing in the future is requiring implementations to change, which is a consideration we have to take seriously
… please engage on the issue
… important discussion group needs to have
