Re: draft text for charter

Thank you very much.
I have used George's draft as base, incorporated simplification of Debra and 
did minor adaptations.
The objectives are:
1. To ensure that accessibility normative requirements are delivered along 
with Digital publishing specifications.
2. To Generalize the accessibility requirements specific to digital 
publishing in other W3C technologies over the course of time.

The text now reads as follows. Please feel free to improve it further.

The Digital Publishing Working Group will incorporate accessibility 
considerations into the Working Group's deliverables. All 
recommendation-track deliverables will contain one or more options to meet 
normative accessibility requirements. General W3C accessibility requirements 
such as WCAG will be integrated as a matter of course; the extended 
requirements will be identified as conformance requirements in the Digital 
Publishing Working Group's normative specifications.

The Digital Publishing Working Group will coordinate with the appropriate 
W3C groups (WAI, WCAG, ARIA etc.) to integrate accessibility requirements 
created as part of our recommendation-track deliverables in to generalized 
technology. One or more pipeline of the requirements will be maintained to 
manage diverse turnaround times of the W3C groups.

With regards
Avneesh

This is a little shorter:
The Digital Publishing Working Group will incorporate
accessibility considerations into the Working Group's deliverables. All
recommendation-track deliverables will contain one or more options to meet
normative accessibility requirements. General W3C accessibility requirements
such as WCAG will be integrated as a matter of course; any extended
requirements will be identified as conformance requirements in the Digital
Publishing Working Group's normative specifications.

The Digital Publishing Working Group will explore communication mechanisms
with appropriate W3C groups  to integrate requirements created as part of
our recommendation-track deliverables in to generalized technology.

George

The text is conceptually good. The first para is about identifying
accessibility requirements and developing specs, and second paragraph talks
about creating pipeline for feeding it in WCAG ARIA etc. It is aligned to
our discussions.
Can the text be a little simplified?

Dear Sub-group,
How about:

The Digital Publishing Working Group will focus on incorporating
accessibility considerations into the Working Group's deliverables. All
recommendation-track deliverables will contain one or more options to meet
normative accessibility requirements. General W3C accessibility requirements
such as WCAG will be integrated as a matter of course; any extended
requirements will be delineated as conformance requirements in the Digital
Publishing Working Group's normative specifications.

The Digital Publishing Working Group will arrange pipelines with appropriate
W3C groups  in order to create a mechanism for the delivery of accessibility
requirements created as part of our recommendation-track deliverables into
the appropriate recommendations for more generalized technology.

Best
George

Deborah,

thanks for taking the first shoot at this!

not reacting to the content just the form: please consider to be as terse as
possible. The charter should not be too long and should be balanced among
the various requirements. At first glance what you write may simply be too
long.

In particular, the charter should not include operative issues like the
creation of sub-groups. This is an organizational matter, and it is up to
tge WG how, operationally, it should achieve its chartered goals...

Thanks

Ivan
