Spec review requests
2026-10-12: Recognized Entities v1.0
matatk: Does not display to the user according to the HR request form
janina: Have reviewed in the past; found no issues per my recollection
matatk: Too low level for our concerns
<JenStrickland> This one item seems worth reflection: The technologies DO create objects that don't have an inherent text representation
<JenStrickland> The image property references a visual identifier (such as a logo, photograph, or icon) that has no inherent text representation. The specification does not define a dedicated text-alternative property for the referenced image; consuming applications that display the image should supply an accessible alternative, for which the entity's name is a
<JenStrickland> reasonable source. This is the primary accessibility consideration worth flagging for review.
matatk: We should likely close

PaulG: The web is for people and we need to encourage people to build UI so people can check things - if we go the other way, this will not happen and we won't be able to build trustworthy sites.
janina: If the W3C stamp matters on a spec, then we need to consider people's needs.
janina: more people need to review the comment draft matak wrote
