Section: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#alt Comment: "the alt attribute must be specified" so are you saying ALT is required? Posted from: 198.204.15.125
That's what it says. INVALID as it is a question, rather than a bug..
This bug is indeed a phrased as question. But I don't know if I would classify 9804 as INVALID. It is more of a NEEDSINFO bug, as it needs further elaboration or clarification to identify a problem. Does the commenter need assistance with this bug? For information on how Bugzilla Bugs fits into the HTMLWG decision policy please see: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html#basic-step-1 That document states: "If the commenter has difficulties filing a bug, one of the Chairs or a volunteer will assist them." 9804 seems to overlap HTMLWG Issue 31 [1] and its related bugs [2]. Would any of those address the commenter's concern? If so this may be a DUPLICATE bug.

Original submitters or other interested parties may choose to continue to push this issue on their own. Notes from the sub-team may follow in a separate comment.
