Hi all,

WAI-CG has asked each of the WAI working groups to look at HTML5 to see 
how it might impact their work.

http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html

I would suggest:

- at least skimming the Table of Contents to see what's in HTML5

- looking at the "Authoring tools and markup generators" in sub-section 2.2

- noting that 4.8.2.1.13 and nearby subsections gives different guidance 
that ATAG2

- Note: HTML also calls authoring tools Markup Generators


We will be collecting feedback at the next call (Aug 17), because CG 
wants feedback gather by Aug 19.

Cheers,
Jan
