The team is actively working on it. Why would they invest work in something they don't want.
Working on it _internally_, in depths of google sea. There is not much to follow that progress other than following small bubbles from that submarine raising to the surface here and there... (imho, ymmv)
Not everything has to be followed at every step. When they have a relevant update on the draft design they publish it, gather feedback, improve, and so on.
People want to follow it closely. And after that fiasco with "new" error comparison handling proposal I cannot blame them.
