    sorry, I disconnected brb

    <scribe> ACTION: JT to propose to add a note the we do not expect
    that keyboard controls are not always possible to have equivalent
    usability, and it is expected that someone would use an alternative
    control or assistive technology to access the functions. We need to
    have a keyboard "hook" to access all function. [recorded in

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-195 - Propose to add a note the we do not
    expect that keyboard controls are not always possible to have
    equivalent usability, and it is expected that someone would use an
    alternative control or assistive technology to access the functions.
    We need to have a keyboard "hook" to access all function. [on Jutta
    Treviranus - due 2009-11-23].

    A short informal meeting was held due to the sparce attendence. We
    briefly discussed the exception for keyboard accessibility for
    drawing tools. Jeanne noted that she brought the issue up at a w3c
    meeting and received input from a number of team members that all
    these accessibility problems had already been discussed and solved.
    They urged Jeanne not to allow exceptions.

    Jutta noted that we are still waiting for a proposal from Greg, and
    did wanted to wait for Greg's input.

    We discussed feedback from the Working Draft. Jutta is publishing a
    link in a newsletter she has access to, Sueann is getting feedback
    from IBM, and the PFWG has requested until December 15 for comments.

    We discussed whether the deadline for comments should be extended,
    and decided not to extend the deadline, but to deal with it on a
    case-by-case basis.

    Cynthia Shelly from Microsoft has offered to host a F2F before
    March. It was noted that March is a busy month, but it would be very
    useful to have a F2F to process comments from Last Call.

    More discussion on F2F next week.
