RE: TAG teleconference agenda for 6 December 2012

My initial email http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2012Nov/0050.html included a bugzilla link:

> It would be useful to review the arguments in https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=19923  including the bug as submitted by Henri and the subsequent arguments in the HTML mailing list.

And an apology:

> I had taken the task of gathering together background reading for the TAG, but it's difficult to extract the technical issues in the mail thread from the long discussions of working group process. 

And a suggestion:

> I think it would be good to include the editor of the draft in discussions about it.
