I'd like to ask that people only post if they had new information to 
add. The goal here is to keep the list from being bogged down by long 
threads that don't seem to be producing good results.

My suggestion at this time is that people focus either on advocating 
updates to one of the existing proposals regarding issue 30:

http://esw.w3.org/topic/HTML/ChangeProposals/longdesc
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Feb/0393.html

... or stating their intent to produce another proposal.
