RE: CFC - Add Orientation SC to Editor's Draft

The discussion thread Jason is referring to is here:
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2017AprJun/1094.html


And the proposals to address objections were either:

“A mechanism is available to view content in all display orientations without loss of essential content or functionality, except where the display orientation is fixed by the user agent or is essential for usage or meaning.”

Or

“Content is not locked to a specific display orientation, and functionality of the content is operable in all display orientations, except where display orientation is essential for use of the content or by user request.”

During the CfC period, I raised a significant issue with the version of the proposal that was included in the survey and the CfC itself. Several options for addressing the concern were discussed on the list.

What now goes into the editor’s draft? If I had thought that I needed to write a separate message to object to the CfC so that one of the amended versions of the proposal could be put forward, I would have done so. However, I took the view that raising an issue that was considered substantive by several working group participants in a timely manner would be enough to prevent the original (unamended) proposal from moving forward. At the very least, there should be an editorial note in the draft to alert reviewers. The issues raised also need to be addressed, as I think the proposals discussed on list successfully do; but, obviously, I don’t support the version of the proposal that was surveyed.

AGWG’ers,

As we have received substantially positive feedback leading up to this CfC, this CfC is agreed on as a consensus opinion of the working group. There was one objection from James Nurthen, details of which are available in the related survey (https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/MATF_orientation/results<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2002%2F09%2Fwbs%2F35422%2FMATF_orientation%2Fresults&data=02%7C01%7Cjjwhite%40ets.org%7Cf759e2658dd94287c06208d4b239cbb9%7C0ba6e9b760b34fae92f37e6ddd9e9b65%7C0%7C0%7C636329408691729965&sdata=glFIeiqSGTPDoJ%2BLPU68S45cJnmEiA0jCiz%2Bbk7F7d4%3D&reserved=0>).
This decision will be recorded at https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/wiki/Decisions<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FWAI%2FGL%2Fwiki%2FDecisions&data=02%7C01%7C%7C1ab6006ec2be48e88f9008d4a210961e%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636311639507586899&sdata=IafGoKjeQf7zBqxVj8m380hh8%2BWgU1VfPa2tZjq0Bx8%3D&reserved=0>
