Take your time, consider what you would like to recommend. For now, issue 32 will remain open. I consider the most likely outcome of today's call to be that Action 128 will get a new target date for when we checkpoint next on this issue. If you have suggestions, options available to you include posting to this list, opening a bugzilla report, or directly editing the draft. One thing I would suggest is that the the PF WG pursue publishing updated guidelines on how to best to provide an overview of complex tabular data or a brief explanation of that data in the context of HTML5, and to work with the authors of the validator to ensure that the message produced ultimately leads people to that document. Henri Sivonen is the primary author of the HTML5 validator, and I believe that Mike Smith is also involved in some way with the deployment of this code on the W3C site. > regards > stevef - Sam Ruby
