Paul, Gregory, I support Gregory's initial response to your question where he noted that the HTML A11Y Task Force needs to review these requirements before they are filed as bug reports for the HTML WG. For instance, based on initial review by Jeanne Spellman and myself of the requirements recently sent from PFWG -- and given that there's been development of additional guidance in this area in UAAG 2.0 during the time that PFWG was working on related issues -- there appears to be a need for re-synchronization on some user requirements and potential solutions. I believe it would be more appropriate and efficient for that resynchronization to happen in the HTML A11Y Task Force than in the HTML WG, and then to pass through a set of clarified and consensed feedback to the HTML WG as bug reports once we've confirmed the approaches. - Judy At 08:08 PM 7/26/2010 +0100, Gregory J.
