Hi Sam , thanks for the clarification. I would be more than happy to discuss summary with you, it is an open item in PF and as a member of both PF and HTML WG have been working the issue from both sides. That is not to say i speak on behalf of the PF in the HTML WG. Will ping you when I have had a chance to discuss more in PF. Although open in PF it has been pushed to the back lately due to discussion around HTML5 and alt. regards stevef 2009/2/24 Sam Ruby <rubys@intertwingly.net>: > Steven Faulkner wrote: >> >> Hi Janina, >> >> As you may be aware, the request to include the summary attribute in >> HTML5 has been declined by the editor Ian Hickson again [1] >> The arguments (I consider) hinge on differences in interpretations of >> the available data and the utility of the summary attribute. >> >> I request that the PF review this issue again and correspond with the >> HTML WG chairs on this issue.
