==ISSUE-4 (html-versioning)==

<cardona507> I am on mute so I will type

<cardona507> i am kind of unlclear - is <!doctype html> stll ok?

<masinter> yes

<masinter> and recommended in most situations

<cardona507> thanks larry

Maciej: change proposal makes versioning optional but not mandatory, so
yes to above question

==ISSUE-30 (longdesc)==

Maciej: Charles submitted a change proposal a while back

makes longdesc nonconforming but optional

==ISSUE-32 (table-summary)==

Maciej: Cynthia posted a proposal with a number of changes

chairs have given structural feedback, expect revision soon

Maciej: Proposal to change normative references

some discussion has taken place

Larry: Suggest people join IRI mailing list to help resolve some of the
issues

==ISSUE-76 (Microdata/RDFa)==

Maciej: Proposal was to publish separate draft

now there's a propsal to retain within HTML

there's been discussion on the mailing list

<oedipus> my phone is dying - will rejoin soon

speaker2: Was proposal to move to separate draft, or just remove
altogether?

Maciej: Proposal was to move to external document but not remove altogether

==ISSUE-83 (dt-dd-semantics)==

Maciej: Proposal to not use dt/dd for <figure>

proposed a new element in place

<pimpbot> Title: Change Proposal Status (at dev.w3.org)

Maciej: above link shows status is change proposals in play

probably won't go through individually each week

just new ones going forward

Julian: What are next steps?

Maciej: chairs to review level of consensus and strength of arguments

help decide which ones to advance

Larry: What is a change proposal that proposes not doing anything?

Maciej: Originated with ones in response to editor action on a bug entry

Larry: Would there be counter-proposals for each proposal?

Maciej: We might expect this

<Julian> s/Julian/Larry/ (in the last two lines)

Larry: Is this part of the documented decision process

Maciej: <scribe missed>, but let's take questions offline


      Review of Chair calls for consensus / proposals

==ISSUE-7 (video-codecs)==

If we don't receive change proposal by today (3 Dec) will close issue
without prejudice

people can submit if they want, by end of today

<Laura> Change Proposal Template:
http://esw.w3.org/topic/HTML/ChangeProposalTemplate

<pimpbot> Title: HTML/ChangeProposalTemplate - ESW Wiki (at esw.w3.org)

different schedule from the rest of HTML

proposal received

for advancement to LC
