Thank you for pushing this to the top of the pile, but I could not expect implementors to commit to the usefulness of a document that is in such an early draft. Although some implementors have indicated such a document would be useful. It is fully expected that the document will be mature enough for implementors to decide before Last Call. I would note that your choice of implementor reps to cc on this bug is rather limited, so when we think the doc is ready we will open your question up to a wider range of people involved in html5 implementation and the HTML WG, in order to make an informed consenus decision on according "HTML to Platform Accessibility APIs Implementation Guide" the "special status" of being linked from the spec. . 41014 3 ian 2010-10-12 08:54:18 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment. If you are satisfied with this response, please change the state of this bug to CLOSED. If you have additional information and would like the editor to reconsider, please reopen this bug. If you would like to escalate the issue to the full HTML Working Group, please add the TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest title and text for the tracker issue; or you may create a tracker issue yourself, if you are able to do so. For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Partially Accepted Change Description: no spec change yet Rationale: That seems reasonable. I'll mark this bug NEEDSINFO in the meantime. Please re-open the bug if a plurality of implementors do indeed agree that this document is helpful enough to the point that it should be given the special status of being explicitly referenced from the spec. 43503 4 cooper 2010-12-21 16:18:46 +0000 Bug triage sub-team thinks this is a HTML A11Y TF priority, since it relates to a deliverable of the TF. Assigning to Steve to track. Note we don't think there should be a question of whether there is consensus around referencing this - it's a deliverable of the HTML WG and should be automatically referenced. 44616 5 cyns 2011-01-22 19:22:13 +0000 Issue 161: http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/161 44618 6 rubys 2011-01-22 19:34:04 +0000 http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/161 47132 7 rubys 2011-04-04 14:22:39 +0000 Working Group Decision: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2011Apr/0016.html 47385 8 contributor 2011-04-12 23:49:37 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r5998.
