Colleagues: This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to formally request that the HTML-WG take one of the following two courses of action with respect to strong native semantics in HTML 5.0: http://htmlwg.org/heartbeat/WD-html5-20140617/dom.html#sec-strong-native-semantics 1.) Mark this section as RFC2119 "informative" in the current 5.0 version of HTML, with a note that it is expected to become normative in a future version of HTML. 2.) Produce testing results that validate maintaning this section's current RFC2119 normative status. The ARIA Task Force believes it may be possible to take the second course of action without an HTML Accessibility API Mappings specification, but such a specification would make the task much simpler. This document is, of course, not yet available for this purpose. This proposal is made by the WAI_PF ARIA Task Force, as discussed in its regular weekly teleconference on 2 June last, logged at: http://www.w3.org/2014/06/02-aria-minutes.html Please reply on list to this email with any objections or concerns. Silence will be interpreted as ascent, though positive messages of support are most welcome. If there are no objections by Close of Business Boston Time Friday 13 June, this CfC will carry, and will be communicated to the HTML-A11Y TF and the HTML-WG as a formal PF comment and request.
