   - Why aria-rowcount was not confined to the table/grid:
http://www.w3.org/2015/03/19-aria-minutes.html
      - Summary: We want ATs to not have to go back to the containing
Grid/table. For older IE browsers ATs only access content from the DOM
      - Treegrids expand rows increasing row count. ... Again would need to
go back to the container
      - The net, net: If we don't want to support older IE versions (US
Federal, banking, state governments) then we can limit supporting the row
count to the containing grid/table
        It will be up to the user agent to propagate the row count down to
either the cell or row level. Group needs to decide. Will need to put ATVs
on notice - Go to AAPIs or performance
        will be impacted. Also, will there be an event notification of
changes in row count?

- Review Open Action Items and Issues (Many overdue items - need to get new
dates and determine if must reassign)  Start with action 1490 in the list
