Hi Richard, Thanks again for clarifying on my previous point. I thought of another question. (Question and supporting remarks are with co-chair hat off.) Is it intended that use of the @adom attribute is mandatory for conforming content? I know the draft doesn't say that it is currently, but I wonder if that is the intent. Here is why I ask: If @adom is not mandatory, then it seems that authors who omit it probably cannot meet the current accessibility conformance requirements for <canvas> in the HTML5 draft. So to make this possible, it seems the HTML5 draft would have to change to make it conforming to have a non-accessible <canvas>. Is that what we want? On the other hand, if @adom *is* mandatory for conformance, then it seems like all we'd be doing is renaming the canvas tag. Regards, Maciej
