<Stevef> RE: ACTION-158 (deprecating element handler and role semantics via attributes), close it as don't have cycles to do it.

going back to ACTION-158 - Steve want to close action

Closing this has no issue impact since it is not associated with an issue.

<cyns> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Jan/0157.html

Review of Chair Calls for Proposals

<cyns> decision at html-a11y meeting was to procede with items 1&2 (the summary part) in a change proposal next week, and separate out 3&4, which are around general table accessibility issues.

5 issues with calls for volunteers: 89-92, 95

Opened over the last week by Shelley

Issue 1, 2, 30 have calls for counter proposals

Two issues would close tomorrow but we have a volunteer for issue 79

no volunteer for issue 84 yet

<Julian> I volunteered for ISSUE-79

Larry Masinter has said his proposal for versioning covers 84

both 79 and 84 are thus covered

3 issues under active work but past their deadline

Issue 66 - deadline jan 16 - will deliver tomorrow

other two are 74 (canvas accessiblity): A11Y TF - due late Feb

<mjs> we agreed to push back 81 at the last telecon

Issue 81: representation vs resource - provision due date on Jan 16 on Roy Fielding

<mjs> er, not 81

<mjs> 74

Roy and the chairs are negotiating how to do a specific change proposal

for Issue 81

Review of Chair Calls for Consensus

Publishing Microdata as a separate spec

Ian said it requires a couple of days of work - due early next week

Ian intends to make it more independent of HTML spec and will let us when this is done.

Next WG meeting there will CfC to publish a new "heart beat" set of documents:

HTML5, RDFa, Microdata and Canvas API doc

Canvas API doc = 2D context

progress on publication will be reported to WG next meeting

New issues this week

there are several items up in the air on how to publish - chairs working on this

<scribe> New issues 89-97

Call for volunteers is specifically for 89-92, 95

Others will come later for this batch of new issues.

Status of Task Forces

Accessibility TF report:

Janina: TF started to discuss the possibility of having a F2F meeting focused on A11Y issue (maybe April)
... TF cannot say when they will be concluded - TF is still collection issues and on specific issues
... TF is still scoping bugs to determine grouping and priority
... Scoping of bugs will take another couple of weeks.

Maciej: Interested in TF progress on tracker escalated issues
... understands it will be harder to give status on new bugs

<Laura> Accessibility Change Proposal Status: http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Accessibility_Change_Proposal_Status

<scribe> ACTION: janina to update A11Y timeline for tracker related issues by jan 28 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/01/14-html-wg-minutes.html#action01]

<trackbot> Sorry, couldn't find user - janina

Janina: Cynthia is coming with a summary proposal but orientation description etc will take longer
... Even though the parts of summary will be dealt with as separate proposals they really need to be adopted together

<Laura> HTML5 Accessibility Bug Status: http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Bugs#Bug_Status_Table

janina: Strong support for F2F meeting and agreement to hold poll for F2F anchored on a conference date to encourage as wide as participation as possible
