--- Comment #3 from Mark Sadecki <mark@w3.org> ---
Hi Laura,

Thanks for pointing out this oversight.  While we partially accepted your
comment, the changeset was never uploaded to the repository.  

We agree with you that the words "modern" and "better" are judgmental. We have
replaced that language with purely descriptive text instead.

However, we do want to encourage authors to use other markup solutions in
addition to longdesc if those solutions may result in better accessibility in
user agents that support them.

Feel free to mark this bug closed if you are satisfied with this response.
