> The goal for Team B is to complete all work (including 
> surveys) this week.
> 
> 1. Complete all items listed under the headings
> 
> - Needs Work
> - Issues for Team B
> 
> On the WIKI page Feb Techniques Status at 
> http://trace.wisc.edu/wcag_wiki/index.php?title=Feb_Technique_Status
> (Note: this page is also linked from the Team B page in the 
> WIKI) 2. Update the Status page if additional responses have 
> been received on any techniques; move as many as possible 
> into the Ready for XML category
> 
> 3. Identify any items that need to be surveyed or re-surveyed 
> (I don't think there are any in that second category, but check).
> 
> I will probably not be able to attend the call (though I will 
> try). I have to go to the MD Anderson Cancer Center in 
> Houston for a series of tests that will take all week. This 
> is pre-cuationary only-if I have a recurrence of leukemia I 
> will need a bone marrow transplant, and my doctor wants me to 
> have all the necessary testing done in advance so they can 
> move quickly if it becomes necessary. (Currently I'm in 
> remission and all recent test results have been good, so 
> hopefully this is just a necessary exercise!)

> In case I'm not able to be there on Tuesday, I want to say 
> now how much I appreciate the work Team B has done over the 
> past few months. We have gotten a great many techniques 
> written and approved, and closed a number of issues as well, 
> and I'm excited to know that we're so close to Last Call! I 
> want especially to thank Loretta for all her work in 
> coordinating and keeping track of all our work. Thanks also 
> to Becky for getting us going with the first task list about 
> GL 1.3, and for lots of techniques and failures. Thanks to 
> Yvette for careful reviews of our techniques as well as the 
> techniques she's contributed.
