The https://github.com/tc39/proposal-regexp-legacy-features proposal reached stage 3. I need to add it as a spec for Browser compatibility data mdn/browser-compat-data#28999

Hope this is correct approach!

So far, browser-specs requires an actual published spec, we cannot just add "specs" that are GitHub repositories, explainers, pull requests, or the like. It may be that browser-specs needs to become more flexible in that regard. We've managed to survive without it until now...

For what it's worth, when a spec exists, TC39 proposals get automatically detected and proposed for addition.

Hope this is correct approach!

Not exactly but not a big deal either :) We use a semi-automated mechanism to assess proposals for addition, and always start from an issue that follows the New spec issue template. See How to add a spec.

I'm closing this pull request and created #2358 to track the addition. I don't have an immediate solution to propose to add the spec though.

Thanks so much for the explanation @tidoust. Will add it as non-standard for now.

Sorry about the format - I should have know this but I do it so rarely. Have sent myself (another reminder) with links to that info.
