Re: [PBG] Agenda for 20181009 call

Likely regrets tomorrow. I am in Frankfurt attending the book fair, and
I'll be at EDItEUR's annual supply-chain meeting and a following networking
event at the time of the call.

With respect to agenda item 1, we promoted the EPUBCheck fundraising
efforts in the BISG newsletter last Tuesday (thanks to Bill Kasdorf for the
reminder). We can do this again, and it would help to have a link to a more
blog-style advocacy piece (the current page is closer to an FAQ, and
varying the format would help). To provide an example, we wrote an advocacy
piece about the W3C
<https://bisg.org/news/418457/Skate-To-Where-The-Puck-Is-Going.htm> itself
a few weeks ago.

With respect to agenda item 3, I've added an accessibility event that BISG
has on the calendar for next year. It is tentative but relevant if it comes
together.

With respect to agenda item 4, I heard from two education publishers at a
Firebrand community conference that the lack of Math ML support in certain
browsers was a deal-breaker in their use of EPUB. I'd given a talk that
I'll post next week that included advocacy for EPUB and other standards,
and they provided real-life feedback. It's a supply-chain problem that the
W3C could use as an argument for membership if they can find a path forward
with various players, particularly device manufacturers and browsers.
