Re: draft text for charter

Avneesh, everybody,

to try to move things ahead… I have made a separate branch (a11y-core) on the charter repository where I tried to incorporate the proposed text with the overall charter. This required some stylistic adjustments.

The results are at [1], with [2] showing the changes (forget about the first block of change, it is a side-effect of a minor spelling mistake that I also handled while I was at it).

I think it would be better if your proposal would be now discussed within the framework of the final charter, just to get things moving. I know there is a time difference involved, but it would still be good if you could give your comments before the call; I could then initiate a pull request and that would help the IG as a whole to say yay or nay on these.

thanks

Ivan

I think one alternative was that we would discuss with the WCAG WG on whether the DPUB WG would publish, on rec-track, a separate WCAG-like document; what happened to that idea?"
