Jon, Please add to the agenda an item about the UA Guidelines dependency on DOM Level 2. The DOM Working Group has been held up in their process of different interpretations of the XML namespaces Recommendation [1] by various XML Working Groups. Since it might be a while before DOM Level 2 advances to Proposed Recommendation, we might want to change our DOM requirements to DOM 1 so that we can move forward. Please note that if we make this change (which is significant, even if it's motived by a process issue, not a consensus issue), we may not be able to move directly to Recommendation. This would be the subject of the agenda item. Thank you, - Ian [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names Jon Gunderson wrote: > > WAI UA Telecon for April 19th, 2000 > \ > Chair: Jon Gunderson > Date: Wednesday, April 19th > Time: 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm Eastern Standard Time, USA > Call-in:Longfellow Bridge (+1) (617) 252-1038 > > Agenda > > Review Action Items (see details at end of message) > > Announcements > > 1.April 27th, WCAG Telecon will be discussing markup to provide > navigation information > to user agents > > 2.Notice of Proposed Rulemaking: Electronic and Information Technology > Accessibility > Standardsby the United States ARCHITECTURAL AND TRANSPORTATION > BARRIERS COMPLIANCE BOARD.
