Colleagues: This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to the Protocols and Formats Working Group to approve publication of an updated heartbeat draft of "HTML5: Techniques for providing useful text alternatives," according to the draft available at: Tiny URL: http://tinyurl.com/kjvjqat Direct URL: http://rawgit.com/w3c/alt-techniques/54c868254d49bac4ca1efa7d9907cc85bfa0a3cd/index.html As discussed in the regular weekly HTML-A11Y Task Force teleconference of Thursday 16 October logged at: http://www.w3.org/2014/10/16-html-a11y-minutes.html#item04 Two editorial corrections are anticipated by this Call for Consensus: 1.) An appropriate hyperlink in W3C web space will replace the place holder hyperlink, currently displaying as "XXXX," should this CfC pass and this heartbeat be published by W3C; 2.) The hyperlink referencing the HTML 5 specification will have its display text corrected to indicate the hyperlink points to the Proposed Recommendation version of the HTML 5 specification, and not the W3C Last Call version, as currently displayed. In the interest of achieving publication of this heartbeat Working Draft ahead of the publication moratorium surrounding TPAC, a concurrent CfC is ongoing in the HTML-A11Y Task Force. HTML-WG process does not require a CfC for heartbeat publications. ACTION TO TAKE According to our agreed 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 on Tuesday 21 October. As is customary, we will also entertain a resolution on this CfC during our regular weekly teleconference meeting this coming Wednesday.
