aloha, laura! i agree that we should: 1. delete the residual XTech wiki page located at: http://www.w3.org/wiki/PF/XTech/HTML5/Metadata 2. keep the new HTML WG Wiki page located at: http://www.w3.org/wiki/PF/XTech/HTML5/Metadata as a general WG-wide resource, and 3. keep the HTML A11y TF wiki page located at: http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Alt_tech_appendix ensuring that the complementary info in each is tweaked so that both documents contain the same information, gregory. ---------- Original Message ----------- From: Laura Carlson <laura.lee.carlson@gmail.com> To: "Gregory J.
