Re: Proposal for charter changes, in view of the formal objections by Vivliostyle & Disruptive Innovation

Hi Ivan,

Thanks for the reactivity on this topic, and sorry I have not been able to follow up so far.

I have been at a F2F meeting of the CSSWG for the last few days, with no time to follow up on other topics. I've seen the thread on the mailing list, but have not had time to dive into it yet. I'll read it and the new charter proposal and get back to you soon.

—Florian

Note, however, the this is more of a placeholder, the new title has not yet been agreed upon by the IG; I used, essentially, Matt's proposal for now. I have also removed the sentence that may be understood as the document being the core of the FPWD ("provides possible technical avenues for the final specifications")

It leaves 18 months for the CR-REC phase. The ARIA CR and REC have also been moved by a quarter, it provides a bit more breathing space.
