|---|---|---|
| Wilco Fiers | No, I have no further questions or concerns. | |
| Levon Spradlin | No, I have no further questions or concerns. | |
| Trevor Bostic | Yes, I have questions or concerns, described below. | - The object element seems to automatically set autoplay for videos and audio. This becomes a problem on example where the audio or video starts autoplaying, but is either off-screen or not visible, so there are no controls to stop the media.This would be caught by the audio and video rule we have been looking at. |
| Kathy Eng | Yes, I have questions or concerns, described below. | Should Background include - Testing that the object is correctly marked as decorative is not part of this rule and must be tested separately |
| Mary Jo Mueller | No, I have no further questions or concerns. |
