As per Sam's request, this e-mail is a report of the status of issues on the agenda that have actions due before 2009-05-08 (11 days from now), from the persective of the spec. ISSUE-54 (doctype-legacy-compat): tools that can't generate <!DOCTYPE html> ISSUE-32 (table-summary): how to provide a summary of a table, e.g. for unsighted navigation? ISSUE-55 (head-profile): head/@profile missing, but used in other specifications/formats ISSUE-60 (html5-xhtml-namespace): Reuse of 1999 XHTML namespace is potentially misleading/wrong ISSUE-31 (missing-alt): What to do when a reasonable text equivalent is unknown/unavailable? ISSUE-4 (html-versioning): HTML Versioning and DOCTYPEs It's not clear to me what needs changing in the spec for these issues. ISSUE-56 (urls-webarch): Assess whether "URLs" section/definition conflicts with Web architecture I am waiting for DanC's draft to reach a standards track (either at the W3C or the IETF) before removing the relevant part of the HTML5 spec (so that I have something to reference). ISSUE-59 (normative-language-reference): Should the HTML WG produce a separate document that is a normative language reference and if so what are the requirements As far as I can tell we have now published such a document, since the HTML5 spec has an alternative style sheet that can be used to hide the implementation requirements. ISSUE-63 (origin-req-scope): Origin header: in scope? required for this release? I am waiting for abarth's draft to reach a standards track (either at the W3C or the IETF) before removing the relevant part of the HTML5 spec (so that I have something to reference). ISSUE-41 (Decentralized-extensibility): Decentralized extensibility I am currently working through some of the feedback received on this topic. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
