ACTION-128: Draft @summary voting text in conjunction with PF

Joshue,

Sam asked me to work with you to draft voting text for the issue regarding 
how to make complex data tables more accessible.

Do you have any proposed text so far?

If not, what would you think of the following?:

   What do you think HTML5 should say about making complex data tables 
   more accessible?

    ( ) HTML5 should encourage authors to use the summary="" attribute 
        that was introduced in HTML4.

    ( ) The text currently in the HTML5 spec is fine.
        http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/tabular-data.html#table-descriptions

    ( ) Something else, described below.

   If you said "something else", please describe it here: [_____]

Cheers,
--
