15:16:51 [David]
Shailesh... feels that it works, and other blind users ... html5 does not allow headers to do non th header cells but html4 does...
15:19:45 [David]
SP: In html5 headers attribute cnnot reference a TD, but can do it with TH, unlike HTML4... firefox now does not allow this now...

scope on TD in HTML5SP:
15:21:44 [David]
SP: Reason to technique... large number of rows... heading markup helps break things up.
15:22:47 [David]
SP: Developers don't like headers IDs... want to simplify...

15:25:32 [Joshue108]
DMacD: They do fine without the headers and IDs.

Talkikng about item number 9 on survey... h63 scope use... need to add scope... manages user experience
15:44:17 [David]

Resolution: leave open... Sailesh put up examples with and without scope come back to this
15:51:24 [Ryladog]
I do not like requiring scope - I like it as an option, as well as the Header/ID - this is too well established to let it die b/c some are not supporting

James: Browsers expose it but AT does nothing
16:11:24 [David]
Josh: can we park it maybe work on it later if AT supports increases?
16:12:23 [David]
James: test has problems... because
16:12:41 [David]
user agents shouldn't infor the user... should be AT to do that
16:13:38 [David]
James: if you can fix it on the fly... do so... michael?
16:16:54 [David]
RESOLUTION: remove ARIA3: Identifying valid range information with the aria-valuemin and aria-valuemax properties park it for edits until needed...not a priority... due to lack of AT support
