So, it is indeed part of the proposal, and a major part of it, too. As are all the other links that I gave. It's a proposal that comes on multiple URLs so it's not easy to see that they all belong together. > It is, of course, fine to continue to develop and refine a proposal. > Certainly, there was no expectation that no more tweaks would be made to > the proposal considered by the Text Subteam.

OK, so while I in principle support the re-introduction of @longdesc (and have also confirmed that in the other thread where we are asking for people to vote), I don't actually agree with the exact text that is to be patched into the spec. I may thus submit an alternative text proposal when it goes to change request calls on the main list. Regards, Silvia.
