3. Coordination of joint meetings for all working group meeting (AWGM)

a. Have contacted CSS working group and will be working with them on 
developing an accessibility section for CSS for inclusion with a future DOM 
specification and reviewing requirements for style sheet control in UI 
section.  Probably will meet with them at AWGM for a 90 minute 
meeting.  Need to develop proposals for discussion.

b. Have contacted DOM working group about UA issues, most are out of the 
current working groups scope.  Will be working with them on a proposed 
section that would describe the important accessibility features of DOM for 
possible inclusion in to a future DOM specification.  Will probably meet 
with them at all AWGM.  Need to develop proposal for discussion.

c. Still contacting voice browser and mobile groups to discuss joint meetings.


4. Timeline update
Late January or early February:  Working group resolves outstanding last 
call issues

Mid February: New working draft available that contains resolutions to last 
call issues

Late February: Move to next stage of process, prefer to go to proposed 
recommendation, but need to look at changes and implementation 
experience.  May need to return to last call if there have been significant 
new requirements added or candidate recommendation if important 
requirements do not have demonstrated implementation experience.
