I noticed that the HTML WG expects to discuss (agenda topic 7a [1]) the issue of longdesc being referred to as obsolete in the current HTML spec [2] (see bug 21341 [3]). I believe the following quote from Plan 2014 [4] applies to this situation and should be included in your discussion. > To prevent unnecessary confusion, the HTML5 specification will drop explicit > indications that any given extension is obsolete once an extension specification > exists that has been published as a FPWD. Additionally, the W3C staff will watch > for drafts being published and keep the W3C validator up to date as appropriate.
