> Has this been noted (at this time) as one potential Change Proposal, or should it be separated and re-written as a stand-alone reference? I encourage you to ensure that any change proposal meets the guidelines described at: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html#change-proposal In particular the proposal you mentioned at: http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/142 does not appear to contain a clearly identified Rationale. I assume you would want the Issue: labeled text to be treated at the Rationale. In addition the Proposal: part at the above link would appear to be a "a high-level prose description of the changes to be made" which requires "prior permission from the chairs". Personally (without speaking for my co-chairs) I would prefer that you provide a more detailed change proposal that is "A set of edit instructions, specific enough that they can be applied without ambiguity." /paulc Paul Cotton, Microsoft Canada 17 Eleanor Drive, Ottawa, Ontario K2E 6A3 Tel: (425) 705-9596 Fax: (425) 936-7329 -----Original Message----- From: John Foliot [mailto:jfoliot@stanford.edu] Sent: Monday, December 13, 2010 6:36 PM To: Paul Cotton Cc: public-html@w3.org; 'HTML Accessibility Task Force' Subject: RE: ISSUE-142 (poster-alt): Chairs Solicit Proposals Paul Cotton wrote > > ISSUE-142 (poster-alt): No alternative text description for video key > frame (poster) > > Per the decision policy, at this time the Chairs would like to solicit > volunteers to write Change Proposals for > ISSUE-142: Paul, Embedded in that Issue tracker page is a proposal to rectify the problem.
