Hi Gregory, Danny Ayers contacted me after he ran acrross the 2009 metadata page that I put together on the the EWS PF Wiki. http://www.w3.org/wiki/PF/XTech/HTML5/Metadata He is interested in geo coords and copyright kind of data and a simple, consistent API for accessing metadata via Javascript in HTML5. So I made the new metadata page [1] on the HTML Wiki so that HTML Working Group members who do not have access to the accessibility task force Wiki can also contribute to a general page on metadata. I notified the full working group of this and asked for contributions [2]. It slipped my mind that we had used that same 2009 metadata info in July 2010 for the appendix to Steve's Doc. http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Alt_tech_appendix http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/index.php?title=Alt_tech_appendix&action=history Now it seems we have three pages with much of the same info. Maybe we could: 1. Delete: http://www.w3.org/wiki/PF/XTech/HTML5/Metadata That page is for PF members only. Some of the links have rotted too. 2. Keep: http://www.w3.org/wiki/PF/XTech/HTML5/Metadata It is meant as an encompassing metadata for all working group members to have an opportunity to contribute metadata use cases. It is not restricted to accessibility or meant as an appendix to another doc. I have updated the links on that page so it doesn't have link rot. 3. Keep: http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Alt_tech_appendix As it is accessibility specific and meant as an appendix to the text alternative spec. What do you think? Thanks.
