Hello everyone, Today while updating the "Accessibility Change Proposal Status" [1] and Accessibility Issues in the HTML5 Tracker" [2] Wiki pages, I noted several Accessibility Change Proposals are due this month. I'm not sure who is working on what. But for everyone's information the following are due: * January 12: HTML-ISSUE-134, "Provide tablist and tab states for menu and command elements respectively" [3] [4]. Bug-triage sub team decided to add the a11yTF keyword to the bug for Issue 134 [5]. * January 19: HTML-ISSUE-135 "Put back direct link to the W3C version of the canvas 2d context spec" [6] [7]. The bug team has not yet indicated on bug 10921 whether this is a task force priority or not [8] [9]. * January 26: HTML-ISSUE-142 "No alternative text description for video key frame (poster)" [10] [11]. The bug for Issue 142 [12] is marked with the "a11ytf" keyword. I think John is working on this one. * January 26: HTML-ISSUE-146, "<video> should allow muted as a content attribute" [13] [14]. Martin indicated that this is a task force priority [15]. John is this something that the media team is pursuing? In addition, last month HTML-ISSUE 133: "Add a modal attribute to html5 to indicate a modal segment of the DOM (modal dialog)" was closed without prejudice as no change proposals were received by the December 10th deadline [16] [17] [18]. If anyone is interested in writing a change proposal for Issue 133, I suspect the HTML Chairs might possibly reopen it as they did for Rich in Issue 130 [19] [20]. For information on writing accessibility change proposals please refer to the Wiki [21].
