Alert!FW: [NISO sc34ballots] Groups - Ballot opened: "SHORT-TURN AROUND JTC1 SC34 - Document semantic support discussion paper"

Hi,
 
We had a previous exchange with NISO and ISO SC 34 with periodicals. They
did accept input regarding accessibility.
 
Now, there is discussion about document semantics and it says:
Please include in the comments field the name and full contact information
for the nominee. Also, include a brief description of the individual's
expertise as related to the group's planned work regarding EPUB3 and METS.
We will only be able to nominate 2-3 people, so this description will be
needed to identify the best-qualified participants.
 
Well, one would think there should be formal involvement of the W3C
Publishing group that is working on semantics. 
 
DAISY is a voting member of NISO, which is why I get these things. Any
thoughts on how to coordinate?
 
Last Fall, we had a coordination call with Francis Cave who is the newly
appointed SC34 lead.  This is also the ISO group we will submit  EPUB 3.2
and the EPUB Accessibility specification 1.1 to.
 
Best
George
