The 802.1Qbg WG has voted on the specification and taken it forward for
drafting. The version 0 specification (see link below) was specifically 
written by the 802.1Qbg WG authors to enable implementation in parallel with
the formal process without being held up by it.  The expectation is that 
the parameters will not change.

http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2010/bg-joint-evb-0410v1.pdf

I expect the companies listed on page 2 of the version 0 specification 
are implementing the spec in their products.
