There appears to be no will at all to talk about anything other than 
APNG. Even asking for a set of exact requirements is met with 
silence. I guess the real requirement for them is "it has to be APNG 
because it has to be APNG".... and then they call us uncooperative...

I have no objections to ANIM. So if you want to go ahead with the 
vote that's fine by me.

Have we decided yet whether to allow JNG in the PNG-in-GIF 
proposal? It's a simple change in the spec but far from trivial in an 
implementation. So for the sake of KISS I'd rather leave it out. If we're 
leaving it out then we can start the vote as soon as applicable afaic.
