Call for Consensus (CfC); Expressly allow concurrent CfCs

Colleagues:

This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to the HTML-A11Y Task Force to
amend our Consensus Procedures to allow Calls for Consensus (CfCs) to
run concurrently in the Task Force, the HTML-WG, and the PF-WG.

Our current Consensus Procedures are available at:

http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/consensus-procedures

Proposed Change

Add the following item to the enumerated steps of Task Force decision
procedures:

	"5.)	Whenever the Task Force Co-Facilitators believe a Task
	Force consensus is clearly evident or noncontroversial, they may
	request that the HTML and PF chairs conduct their working group
	Calls for Consensus concurrently with the Task Force's CfC."

This CfC is the result of the proposal thread beginning at:

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2015Mar/0015.html

It has become known also by the term "the CfC on CfCs."

ACTION TO TAKE

According to agreed Procedures, this CfC is now open for objection,
comment, as well as statements of support via email. Silence will be
interpreted as support, though messages of support are certainly
welcome.

If you object to this proposed action, or have comments concerning this
proposal, please respond by replying on list to this message no later
than 23:59 (Midnight) Boston Time on Sunday 22 March.
