Hi Leif, > Could we expand your CP - now I am open updating the CP if: 1. The accessibility task force agrees and comes to consensus that it is the best way to help successfully reinstate longdesc into HTML; and 2. If someone volunteers to draft solid use cases; and 3. If someone volunteers to draft additions for the spec text and those additions obtain task force consensus. So for number one, Silvia, Leonie, Janina and other task force members, would you support expanding longdesc? And if so under what circumstances? <img>, <table>, global? What is the scope? Do we have any volunteers (from the accessibility task force or WAI-XTECH) to write the use cases? Janina, if it seems that people are in favor of this idea and do the work, would you be willing to do the consensus call(s)? Benjamin, you did a great job in drafting the spec text that we currently have. Would you be able to lead that effort again if we reach consensus on 1 and 2? For this to be successful, the task force will need to pull together in the same direction. If this all happens, I will be delighted to update the Change Proposal. Best Regards, Laura -- Laura L. Carlson
