Re: request to review HTML WG chairs decision on issue 133

Hi Sam,

Thank you for answering my inquiry.

Thank you for stating what the HTML chairs actually meant in the
September 7, 2010 "Timeline to Last Call" message [2]. I wish had
known that earlier.

Do you have any idea when the chairs will be resolving the Bug 11447
"Please document in the decision policy the procedure for reopening an
issue"? [3]

I will be submitting a request to reopen Issue 30 soon.

Best Regards,
Laura

Typo should have been:
But Rich did NOT submit his change proposal before the January 22
cutoff date for escalating bugs for pre-LC consideration.
