Hello everyone, I have worked some more on the InstateLongdesc change proposal [1] trying to incorporate ideas from the "Moving longdesc forward: Recap, updates, consensus" thread. Thanks to everyone for your input. Some quick notes: John and Leif, I modularized the main document and linked to the key sub-sections to make to make the main page more readable. Leif, I added a boilerplate section to the top of each module so that people know a particular section is part of the change proposal. Sam, I was careful to keep the use case information that was vital to reopening the issue on the main page. Gregory, Ben and Chaals, I worked a bit on the Hidden Meta-data section. I linked to some ways that longdesc can be made discoverable to sighted users. (The links are a new version of the 10.6.1 page with links to the real world implementations.) The Hidden Meta-data section still needs work. Chaals, you mentioned that you would try to propose text for the Hidden Meta-Data section. That would be would be great. Review and proofreading the document and all of its 14 sub-sections would be helpful. If anyone would like to suggest changes, it would be productive to provide actual wording for specific sections. Thanks everyone. I think/hope we are getting there.
