CfC: Request transition of Image Description to Candidate Recommendation

In accordance with both the W3C process's requirement to record the group's decision to request advancement [1] and with the steps identified in the "Plan 2014" CfC [2], this is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to request transition to Candidate Recommendation for the following Image Description extension specification:



                   https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/html-proposals/raw-file/217e6b995ac9/longdesc1/longdesc.html



The A11Y TF has approved the transition of this document to CR status and requested both the HTML WG and the PF WG to approve the transition.  See:

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-admin/2014Jul/0046.html



Silence will be taken to mean there is no objection, but positive responses are encouraged. If there are no objections by Fri Aug 1, this resolution will carry.



Considerations to note:



- A request to advance indicates that the Working Group believes the specification is stable and appropriate for implementation.

- The specification MAY still change based on implementation experience.
