Forwarding @longdesc requirements recommendation from PF

Colleagues:

In the wake of several years activity around both long and short
alternative text support for HTML 5, and especially in support of recent
work aimed at restoring to HTML an acceptable mechanism in support of
long descriptions, the Protocols and Formats Working Group has developed
a set of requirements for such a mechanism. PF has resolved to forward
these requirements to the Task Force for its consideration in the
expectation that they can help address many of the concerns that have
been voiced concerning longdesc in the HTML-WG.

The following PF Resolution is logged at:
http://www.w3.org/2011/03/30-pf-minutes.html

RESOLUTION: Forward http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Verbose_desc_reqs to HTML A11y TF as a PFWG
   recommendation
