We have just discussed this in the TF meeting. We think there is not enough content for having a specific topic on decorative images for the content authors, but we will include guidance for instructors to teach how to:

- Determine when an image is informative/decorative based on whether the image info is described in the adjacent text
- Understand the difference between "no alt text" and "empty alt text" and make the necessary annotations for other roles when empty alt text is required.
