<trackbot> ISSUE-203 -- All Media Elements should have the ability to have both short and longer textual descriptions associated to the element -- raised

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/203

rubys: important that we get CP for these issues - if we don't get proposals the issues will be deferred to html.next

janina: a11y tf thinks issue 203 should be considered after issue 30
... since one depends on the other
... you need both an alt text and a longdesc for the media element - this is separate from the poster that it may have
... we in good shape on the alt but not on the longdesc because we don't yet know which mechanism we will end up with for that

rubys: are you suggesting the deadline moved after?

janina: yes, to start after the longdesc question is resolved

paulc: are you asking that we don't process 203 before 30 or that we delay calling change proposals

<rubys> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2012Jan/0098.html

janina: delaying change proposals call because the only thing that could be proposed is used longdesc or described by that we're talking about in 30
... CP will be to apply that mechanism to the video tag

paulc: could you write the CP saying using the solution from issue 30
... then all we have to make sure we don't come to a decision on 203 before 30

rubys: before the deadline?

janina: yes
... if that kind of conditional proposal is acceptable then this is reasonable

paulc: suggest that you get this into the CP and ask for explicit permission from chairs

New Calls this week

... April face-to-face meetings for HTML and WebApps

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2012Feb/0057.html

plh: in order to help wg make progress, a f2f would be good
... especially in april for html wg
