Annotation is now a web standard

First, this would require that the browser vendors adopt the standard, right? How long time does that usually take? Is it a few months for Chrome/Firefox and a few years for Safari/IE, or how would that usually play out?

I wouldn't be so pessimistic. Safari has one year release cycle for major versions. IE isn't getting new features, but Edge is updated much more frequently than IE ever was.

It's varies rather extremely. No simple answer to this one. Generally, it correlates well to the interests of the browser vendor.

IE adopt a standard? Now I've heard everything. EDIT: To whomever downvoted this - I have one word: CSS. EDIT 2: To whomever downvoted after I edited the first time - I have to say, you're not making a case for your side of the argument.
