At this point issue 204 has gone to survey, seeking objections on two proposals. http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/AllowAriaReferHidden http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/Correct_Hidden_Attribute_Section_v4 In order to help the chairs plan our next steps, I would appreciate some indication as to whether or not people will be requesting an opportunity to update their proposals based on the decision, and if so, an estimate as to how long that would take. So regarding the "LongdescZeroEdit" proposal[1]... 1) Should the "AllowAriaReferHidden" proposal be selected, would the InstateLongdesc proposal need to be updated, and if so, how long do you estimate that it would take? 2) Should the "Correct_Hidden_Attribute_Section_v4" proposal be selected, would the InstateLongdesc proposal need to be updated, and if so, how long do you estimate that it would take? I want to emphasize that this query is solely for planning purposes and will not affect the outcome of issue 204. The survey on issue 204 closes on Friday August 3rd. A response by that time would be greatly appreciated. - Sam Ruby [1] http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/LongdescZeroEdit -------- Original Message -------- Subject: ISSUE-204: aria-hidden - Straw Poll for Objections Resent-Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2012 14:19:07 +0000 Resent-From: public-html@w3.org Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2012 14:18:04 +0000 From: Paul Cotton <Paul.Cotton@microsoft.com> To: public-html@w3.org <public-html@w3.org> ISSUE-204: aria-hidden - Straw Poll for Objections http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/204 The HTML WG has not reached consensus on how to exempt ARIA attributes from the rule that prohibits reference to hidden elements. The poll is available here and it will run through Fri Aug 3: https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/40318/issue-204-objection-poll/ Please read the introductory text before entering your response. In particular, keep in mind that you don't *have* to reply. You only need to do so if you feel your objection to one of the options is truly strong, and has not been adequately addressed by a clearly marked objection contained within a Change Proposal or by someone else's objection. The Chairs will be looking at strength of objections, and will not be counting votes. /paulc HTML WG co-chair Paul Cotton, Microsoft Canada 17 Eleanor Drive, Ottawa, Ontario K2E 6A3 Tel: (425) 705-9596 Fax: (425) 936-7329
