Subject: 48-Hour Call for Consensus (CfC): Publish HTML Transcript as a Note

Colleagues:

This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to the Protocols and Formats Working
Group (PFWG) to approve publication of the document "Transcript in HTML"
as a W3C Note:

http://www.w3.org/2015/09/html-transcript-staging/

While the HTML-A11Y Task Force desires this specification to become a W3C
recommendation at some time in the future, the several working groups with
ownership of this specification are under reorganization in W3C, and it is
unclear at this time which existing or new working group will take on future
development of this specification. As we do not wish to leave this document
as merely an editor's draft, we have determined the most prudent course of
action is to park the specification in a W3C Note for the time being.

Discussion of this approach and the decision to move forward on this path is
recorded in the HTML-A11Y Task Force minutes from 10 September last at:

http://www.w3.org/2015/09/10-html-a11y-minutes.html

ACTION TO TAKE

According to agreed PFWG Consensus 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, Tuesday 22 September.

Note that concurrent calls for consensus will be ongoing for the Task Force
and for the HTML Working Group as agreed in the Task Force Consensus
Procedures[1].
