Hi Jeanne and Jutta,

Thank you for the response to our comments.  Microsoft will consider 
them carefully.  Please note that some of our key groups team are rather 
tied up at the moment.  It is likely that we will send you our review 
around mid to late September instead of Aug 26 per request.  I believe 
Cherie already informed the group about this scheduling issue.  Thus, I 
ask the working group not to assume that Microsoft accepts the response 
with no additional follow up questions or comment upon Aug 26.

I hope you understand that Microsoft intends on giving the working 
group's response a comprehensive consideration and adequate time and 
devotion is necessary.

All best,

Guidelines (ATAG) 2.0

Dear Alex:

Thank you for your comments on the 8 July 2010 Last Call Working Draft 
of Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG) 2.0 
(http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/WD-ATAG20-20100708/). The Authoring Tool 
Accessibility Guidelines Working Group has reviewed all comments 
received on the draft. We would like to know whether we have understood 
your comments correctly and whether you are satisfied with our resolutions.

Please review our resolutions for the following comments, and reply to 
us by 26 August 2011 to say whether you accept them or to discuss 
additional concerns you have with our response. If we do not hear from 
you by that date, we will mark your comment as "no response" and close 
it. If you need more time to consider your acknowledgement, please let 
us know. You can respond by email to public-atag2-comments@w3.org. Note 
that this list is publicly archived.

Since many of the comments were related, we have kept all the comments 
on a topic together in a spreadsheet format, so you can see your 
comments in the context of the others.  You can search for your specific 
comments by searching for your code "MS". The spreadsheet of comments is 
located at 
http://www.w3.org/WAI/AU/2011/atag20-8Jul10LC-comments-updated14july2011.html

The AUWG has published a new working draft of ATAG 2.0 and Implementing 
ATAG 2.0, so you can see the results of your comments in the document.
http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-ATAG20-20110721/

Note that if you still strongly disagree with our resolution on an 
issue, you have the opportunity to file a formal objection (according to
3.3.2 of the W3C Process, at
http://www.w3.org/2005/10/Process-20051014/policies.html#WGArchiveMinorityViews)
to public-atag2-comments@w3.org. Formal objections will be reviewed 
during the candidate recommendation transition meeting with the W3C 
Director, unless we can come to agreement with you on a resolution in 
advance of the meeting.

Thank you for your time reviewing and sending comments. Though we cannot 
always do exactly what each commenter requests, all of the comments are 
valuable to the development of ATAG 2.0.

Regards,


Jutta Treviranus, AUWG Chair
Jeanne Spellman, AUWG Staff Contact
