Despite this still being in proposal status, I have been working on this project and making optimal progress on it. I'd say that this project is nearing completion already! |
Great work, Vinyl! 🎉 Currently seeing 215 features that can't be calculated:

These PRs will get us a lot closer to this goal: |

Problem statement
The WebDX group has stated that having
true
as a value in BCD is problematic for Baseline calculation. It has also been a source of confusion for many developers, with many asking what “Yes” meant in the compatibility tables.Proposed solutions
To reduce confusion right away, we should replace all true values with the most accurate data we are able to.
The easiest solution is to replace all of the true values with ranged values that match up the date of the browser releases with the date of the commit the feature was first tracked in BCD.
The harder solution is to track down exact version numbers for all of the features.
Task list
Note: the majority of true values are from web extensions, a part of BCD that is not typically maintained other than by the web extensions MDN team.
