On June 2, 2005, a formal comment was submitted regarding the inclusion of the @key attribute to the newly proposed access element (http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-html-editor/2005AprJun/0156.htm l). In that posting, I specifically requested the authors/editors to consider *NOT* including this attribute within the spec, as it leaves open the continued possibility of key binding conflict. A recent review of outstanding issues at the HTML Working Group XHTML 2 Issue Tracking System (http://hades.mn.aptest.com/cgi-bin/xhtml2-issues) leaves me with the impression that this issue has been resolved, yet I cannot find the "solution" anywhere. I do recall some discussion of a priority system being established, where end user choice over-rode author choice, followed by user-agent choice over-riding author choice, and then finally allowing author choice to be exposed, but this "cascade" does not appear to be publicly published anywhere. Given that the issue seems to be resolved (at least to the editors satisfaction), may I formally request what the decision/resolution is/will be? Is this resolution publicly available? Thank you in advance. JF -- John Foliot foliot@wats.ca Web Accessibility Specialist / Co-founder of WATS.ca Web Accessibility Testing and Services http://www.wats.ca Phone: 1-613-482-7053
