RE: proceeding with publication

Hi Shadi, Eric & TF

I'm pretty excited that we are now ready to publish our draft - it's so nice to have something to show others and get that all-important feedback.

Can you tell me the procedure now?  For example, can I send it to Australian Government departments and ask for feedback, or is this something handled on a W3C scale?  I don't want to send it around and then find out that I should have waited a bit longer.

Thanks - if I had a glass of vino to hand, I'd raise it in a salute to the group, but especially Eric and Shadi for all the hard work.

Subject: proceeding with publication

Dear Eval TF,

As discussed on the previous teleconference call, we agreed to proceed
with publishing the First Public Working Draft (FPWD) of our "Website
Accessibility Conformance Evaluation Methodology 1.0".

The latest draft, diff-marked version, and disposition of comments are:
  - <http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/conformance/ED-methodology-20120320>
  - <http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/conformance/ED-methodology-20120320-diff>
  - <http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/conformance/comments>

There has been one addition to the "Status of the Document" section, it
now contains a bullet asking for feedback on:
  - "Meeting the set _Requirements_, in particular on meeting the
_requirement for increasing inter-rater reliability_;"

This change was to (1) refer readers to our requirements documents and
(2) to encourage feedback on improving the reliability of the document.

There are also several other points that we will come back to for more
discussion, especially as we expand the currently empty sections.

Congratulations on all of your hard work in achieving this milestone!

Best,
   Shadi
