Colleagues: 
 
This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to the Protocols and Formats Working 
Group (PFWG) requesting approval for the draft SVG Accessibility Task 
Force Work Statement at: 
 
http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/svg-a11y-tf/work-statement 
 
A similar CfC is expected in the SVG-WG soon. 
 
Please note that a vote in favor of this CfC is also a vote for the 
formation of this TF. 
 
ACTION TO TAKE 
 
According to agreed PFWG Consensus Procedures, this CfC is now open for 
objection, comment, as well as statements of support via email. Silence will be 
interpreted as support, though messages of support are certainly welcome. 
 
If you object to this proposed action, or have comments concerning this 
proposal, please respond by replying on list to this message no later 
than 23:59 (Midnight) Boston Time, Wednesday 15 October. A resolution 
of support will also be considered during our teleconference this coming 
Wednesday.
