Hi Laura, The question was not meant to be adversarial BTW, but simply to suggest that we have numerous items on our collective plate. The question of revisiting these elements has been recorded (so that the work item won't slip from view), but realistically we *DO* have larger fish to fry - any potential problems that these new elements might introduce have not been articulated to the point where they are deemed critical: Canvas, Video, even your excellent work on @alt are all significantly more pressing, and we are moving toward deadline dates as well (like it or not). If you, or Shelley, or anyone else are significantly concerned that there might be holes in these new elements then they should step up to the plate and do something about addressing them - it is not the mandate of the Chairs of the Task Force to 'assign' work to anyone - this is after-all a volunteer organization.
