As discussed on today's a11yTF call, we should have a meta discussion regarding the general principle of splitting out authoring guidance from the larger spec, especially when it impacts on accessibility issues. This is currently an active topic regarding Issue 31 [1] versus SteveF's First Public Draft regarding @alt text [2] (with an indication that Ian will be submitting a null change proposal for Issue 31 [3]) and also related to Action Item 44 [4] (as well as possibly Item 46 [5]). Establishing a general principle (Resolution?) within the TF on this issue will become important (IMHO). I also anticipate that this issue will likely re-surface with ongoing work within the media sub-team's current activities, so a clearly articulated position will be import there as well. As such, can we add this to next week's agenda please? Thanks.
