Re: DPUB ARIA module

Thank you Ivan.

Janina, Michael,

At this point I believe all the concerns that were raised by the ARIA task
force were addressed by the DPUB ARIA task force. So, unless you would like
to have a formal resolution on today's PF call I see no reason to not
advance it to FPWD.

I have already shared the information with my IBM colleague working on
Readium accessibility and I will be sharing the information with Namo
Interactive who produces an EPUB authoring tool and for which I am on the
technical advisory board. I want to ensure we get industry feedback as
quickly as possible. We also need to work on API mappings.

Best,
Rich

Janina, others,

my apologies for putting my administrative hat on:-) Maybe Michael should
also chime in if I am mistaken somewhere.

Formally speaking, the DPUB ARIA Module document is a publication of the PF
Working Group, as the status section clearly says. The status makes no
mention of the DPUB IG, and that is actually the right thing because the
current DPUB IG (as an Interest Group) is not chartered to publish a
Recommendation. This also means that, again by the process, a formal
RESOLUTION for FPWD publication should come from the PF WG only, there is
no need for such an administrative step on the DPUB IG side.

Of course, this is a joined task force, and there should be an agreement on
both sides to go ahead. As Tzviya said, this has already been discussed by
the DPUB IG, and the IG's approval is on record. So… while of course we can
go through the admin step if you really feel that it is necessary on the PF
side, it is certainly not necessary per W3C process (and, I must admit, I
prefer to reduce the admin load wherever possible). I think that if the PF
WG can formally vote for the resolution as quickly as possible, we can get
the admin done through Judy (as domain lead) and we can go on with the FPWD
publication next week.

My apologies again for the formalities…

Thanks!

Ivan
