Your last message on the thread last time made me think your objections
had been lifted:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2011JulSep/1459.html

But I guess I misunderstood it. I'm a bit at loss as to how to make
progress on this.

I did remove it, indeed; listing all the things the document doesn't do
didn't seem very helpful to the reader, and seemed redundant with the
scoping statement of the document: 
        "This document summarizes the various technologies developed in
        W3C that increase the power of Web applications, and how they
        apply more specifically to the mobile context."

I agree that the current data are somewhat subjective (and have amended
the description of the column in the introduction accordingly).

My sources have been:
* my personal knowledge of what's available where, and what I've heard
is coming soon
* http://mobilehtml5.org/
* caniuse.com

Ideally, I would like a lot more of the data in that column to come from
W3C test suite results, but since we're not there yet, I think
subjective (but I'm hoping reasonably well informed) data are probably
more helpful to the reader than no data at all.

And as any other part of the document, I'm happy to get specific
feedback on which of these assessments you think are not in line with
the market.
