Hi Maciej, > Which part of this text gives the alternatives that will be voted on in the > straw poll? I reread the email several times. It has me puzzled too. Josh, are the following meant to be likert scale [1] questions for the poll? > * Summary is the best way to make tables accessible, even though it is > specific to people with disabilities > * Continued support for summary is needed as a bridging mechanism > while other methods to make tables accessible are developed and proven > * Summary is not effective and should be immediately replaced with > other mechanisms to make tables accessible > * A well constructed table with caption and headers would never need > any kind of summarizing mechanism, user agent heuristics can generate > a good overview Likert-scale questions can be good for measuring the degree of respondents' feelings or attitudes about something. Format for choices usually are: 1. Strongly disagree 2. Disagree 3. Neither agree nor disagree 4. Agree 5. Strongly agree Best Regards, Laura [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Likert_scale -- Laura L.
