To whom it may concern. In Italy we have a law that states that a web site must use only international standard formats to implement web accessibility. We know HTML5 would be practically more functional for implementing web accessibility but we cannot use that for public entities and other subjects that have to obey this law. So the question is : have you an idea about when HTML will become a W3C Recommendation or can you point me to a good information source about that?
