Vladimir's draft AHG report says:

If the current OpenType list discussion is any indicator, I would think 
the color font discussion could go on for quite a while before coming to 
consensus, and I don't like the idea of rushing it through.

Thus I wonder if it wouldn't be better to recommend just the opposite, 
namely that the current WD get promoted to Committee Draft as it is and 
let the color font CFP and discussion continue as long as needed to 
reach consensus.

But I admit to being relatively ignorant of the processes involved.
