Colleagues: We have been requested to confirm the consensus on longdesc reached at the Text Subteam teleconference this past Monday, 17 May. http://www.w3.org/2011/05/16-text-minutes.html We are further requested to confirm the Task Force consensus according to the published Consensus Procedures document at: http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/consensus-procedures.html Therefore, we will test for consensus on both resolutions approved by the Text Subteam during our regular Task Force teleconference this coming Thursday, 19 May. If the consensus reached at the Text Subteam is confirmed during the Thursday meeting, we will further open a WBS survey for three working days beginning Thursday as provided for in the Consensus Procedures document. We will vote on each resolution separately, just as was done in the Text Subteam, so that it is possible to approve either, neither, or both. The two resolutions are: RESOLUTION: The Task Force supports the Issue 30 Change Proposal at: http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/InstateLongdesc RESOLUTION: The Task Force supports a Formal Objection escalation should it appear that HTML last call is to be published without the longdesc as in our supported proposal Regards, -- Janina Sajka, Phone: +1.443.300.2200 sip:janina@asterisk.rednote.net Chair, Open Accessibility janina@a11y.org Linux Foundation http://a11y.org Chair, Protocols & Formats Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/wai/pf World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)
