15:16:44 JB: Working on a clarification mail to avoid a Formal Objection. Gez working on @summary, others on other topics. WAI has taking up the question in which WG @alt validation lives.
15:17:07 JF: Have been working on a meta-generator proposal, half way there.

15:22:39 RS: Submitted a proposal to the chairs. Ian Hickson took many editorial freedoms, changed steps, added methods. Going through these changes takes a lot of time. My concern is: the editor apparently thinks he can edit the proposal without former consensus. There are so many technical inconsistencies, also accessibility flaws where he ignores expert knowledge like we've seen in the past.

15:24:50 JB: One of the aspects of the HTML WG process is commit, then review. It's an exception in the W3C process. This seems to be causing ongoing problems and cycles of additional work.
15:25:43 I'm logging. I don't understand 'make minuts', oedipus. Try /msg RRSAgent help
15:25:46 JB: Rich, you are noting some technical errors, is that in the editors' work or the chairs' work?

15:27:39 RS: When the editor introduces his own body of work without consensus on the group it slows down the work in other activities within the Task Force and other WGs, for example SVG.

15:34:31 JB: Macej put a huge amount of work into reviewing the comments on @alt, @figcaption is another candidate for such a review. The form of communication should be dialog rather than hierarchical decisions. We should watch the replies on the surveys closely.
15:34:39 often such things HAVE been discussed and exposed within HTML WG fora
15:35:38 q+
15:36:24 JS: The problem with the surveys is that we don't know what the chairs are thinking, so a seemingly repetition might point to a detail that is clear to us that might be overlooked to the chairs. We do not know the context of their decisions until they are made, then we see where more information would have been needed.

15:39:42 it still bothers me that the WHAT WG and W3C drafts diverge (they are, according to hixie, materially different)

15:41:33 JB: There might be other issues that had been resolved but have been shifting afterwards. We need methods to monitor this.
15:42:11 JS: From time to time it might be necessary to re-read the whole spec.
15:43:10 JB: I believe there are a couple of weeks in the Last Call process to allow for re-reading of a stable version.
15:43:27 timeline to last call: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Sep/0074.html
15:44:03 "April 22, 2011 - all issues resolved; LC resolution presented to group Consequences of missing this date: this would be solely a failure by the chairs, so we would publicly eat crow and plot a new date."
15:44:05 (1 month)
15:44:07 "May 22, 2011 - fixable LC objections addressed; if all goes well, LC resolution carries Consequences of missing this date: try LC resolution again."
15:44:24 +q
15:46:21 judy thx gregory for the reminder of the timeline to last call schedule, and notes the explanations for april and may dates
15:47:03 TOPIC: Last Call Timeline
15:48:14 JB: I'm not speaking on behalf of the chairs, but I suggest that people look at the April 22 and May 22 date.
15:48:19 q?
15:48:23 ack jf
15:49:08 JF: Based on those two dates, it seems to me that they already missed on the April 22 date. We should request clarification on the date whether they have a revised agenda.
15:50:04 GJR notes that the only replies to the Timeline Announcement were replies from editors of HTML5 modules (including SteveF) confirming that their drafts will proceed in tandem with the main spec
15:50:25 JB: My impression is that they are very eager to meet those timelines. Regarding accessibility features there are still considerable concerns. I hope that clarification can address those concerns.
15:51:24 s/proceed in tandem with the main spec/proceed in tandem with the main spec or not/
15:53:09 JF: There are a number of objections, and I was wondering which of these will be addressed. I'm not making any reproaches, I'm just curious which dates apply.
15:54:46 GJR believes that he and leonie watson are supposed to do a comprehensive review of HTML5 forms

15:56:59 oedipus, you wanted to say the editor's draft is a constatnly moving target -- review latest editor's draft or latest PWD?
15:58:10 JB: Division into specific sections made it possible to review the spec in reasonable parts.
15:58:37 GR: The spec as a moving target is a problem.
15:58:44 JB: We will address this issue.
