Amendment to item #5 sent on Dec 31:
"The only instance where scope is needed in a simple data table is
where the row identifier is not in the first column like in "Example
4: Table with an offset column of header cells".
should read:
"The only instance where scope is needed in a simple data table is
where the row identifier is not in the first column like in "Example
4: Table with an offset column of header cells if they are marked up
as TD and not TH. It is valid in HTML4 to use TD with the scope
attribute and there is an explicit remark about this in the HTML4
guidance doc".

Thanks,
