The "we" here refers to participants in the WCAG Working Group, and in particular those who were able to attend the face to face meeting in Brussels last week. As stated prior to that meeting, any resolutions adopted at the face to face meeting are have been sent to the WCAG mailing list for discussion, and will be reviewed again at this Thursday's teleconference/meeting of the Working Group. If participants in good standing accept the proposal, it will be included in the new public Working Draft to be published on 30 June. If the Working Group does not reach consensus, the 30 June draft will include an Editorial Note describing the issues and requesting feedback from the Web community. The Working Group is grateful for the extended discussion of this issue over the past several days, which has come both from participants in the Working Group and from people in the Web community who are passionately interested in and committed to making the Web more accessible. The only "foregone conclusion" is that we will publish a new public working draft on 30 June. I recognize that this particular issue is extremely important. However, there are 12 other guidelines and more than 60 success criteria. The Web community would be well served by responses to other guidelines and success criteria in the proposed draft as well. Thanks again for all the energy and thought devoted to this important issue. Johnto. "Good design is accessible design." Dr. John M.

Has everyone agreed on this, or this an inner-circle we? It's clear there is no point in continuing to debate this issue. Any serious points are ignored, and I think you're right in that this issue is a foregone conclusion.
