>> Dear colleagues,
>>
>>
>>
>> I am very sorry for missing the last teleconference of the PBG.
>>
>> I was sick and was thus unable to stay awake.  Let me report
>>
>> the current status of the ISO/IEC standardization of EPUB 3.0.1
>>
>> and EPUB A11Y 1.0.
>>
>>
>>
>> 1. Decisions of the PBG meeting
>>
>>
>>
>> In the PBG meeting on April 24 [1], we adopted the recommendation
>>
>> of a task force for creating ISO/IEC specifications for EPUB 3.X
>>
>> and EPUB A11Y.  The recommendation is basically
>>
>> ISO/IEC standardization of EPUB 3.0.1 and EPUB Accessibility 1.0.
>>
>>
>>
>> [1] https://w3c.github.io/publ-bg/Meetings/Minutes/2018/2018-04-24-pbg
>>
>>
>>
>> 2. EPUB 3.0.1
>>
>>
>>
>> To publish EPUB 3.0.1 as International Standards, the PBG sent two
>>
>> liaison statements.  Daniel Dardailler (W3C Director of International
>>
>> Relations) does not see any problems with these liaison statements.
>>
>>
>>
>> In the first liaison statement [2], we asked SC34/JWG7 not to publish
>>
>> 3.0.1 as Technical Specifications.  In the second liaison statement
>>
>> [3], we asked Korea to submit 3.0.1 as DISs by the fast-track
>>
>> procedure.
>>
>>
>>
>> I heard from Yong-Sang Cho of Korea that Korean NB submitted EPUB
>>
>> 3.0.1 via the fast-track procedure on August 6.  Voting is expected to
>>
>> start soon.

>>
>>
>>
>> 3. EPUB A11Y 1.0
>>
>>
>>
>> To publish EPUB Accessibility 1.0 as an International Standard, Japan
>>
>> prepared a draft of a new work item proposal [4].  Japan requested
>>
>> SC34/JWG7 to discuss this proposal in the upcoming SC34/JWG7 meeting
>>
>> on September 12.  Japan plans to officially submit this proposal and
>>
>> start a ballot after the meeting.
>>
>>
>>
>> Daniel Dardailler confirmed that W3C has no issue with this
>>
>> transposition, although he did suggest another possibility: creating a
>>
>> W3C recommendation for EPUB A11Y first and then sending it to JTC1 via
>>
>> the PAS procedure.  Members of the task force (mentioned above) think
>>
>> that his suggestion is a very useful input for the standardization
>>
>> of EPUB A11Y 1.1 (not 1.0) and beyond.
