It would probably be useful to split this analysis to separately cover pre-Last Call bugs and those that are Last Call bugs. For example WG members now have until Jan 22 to escalate any pre-Last Call bugs [1] for which they disagree with the current disposition. It would be a shame to miss that date for a A11Y bug for the sake of spending time on Last Call bugs for which we have a MUCH longer time to worry about. /paulc [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Sep/0074.html Paul Cotton, Microsoft Canada 17 Eleanor Drive, Ottawa, Ontario K2E 6A3 Tel: (425) 705-9596 Fax: (425) 936-7329 -----Original Message----- From: public-html-a11y-request@w3.org [mailto:public-html-a11y-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of Laura Carlson Sent: Saturday, December 11, 2010 11:42 AM To: HTML Accessibility Task Force Subject: Weekly Resolved & Rejected Bugs Report Hello Everyone, Since the last report we have had: One WONTFIX bug resolutions.
