Re: Call for Consensus: Publish HTML 5.2 FPWD?

2016-07-05 Thread Richard Schwerdtfeger
Hi Charles, 

I see this is designed to provide semantic-level scripting and markup for 
accessibility: "This specification is limited to providing a semantic-level 
markup language and associated semantic-level scripting APIs for authoring 
accessible pages on the Web ranging from static documents to dynamic 
applications.”

Can you point to sections on this in the FPWD?

Thanks,

Rich

Call for Consensus: Publish HTML 5.2 FPWD?

2016-07-05 Thread Chaals McCathie Nevile

This is a call for consensus on the proposition:

Publish the current editors' draft of HTML 5.2 -  
https://w3c.github.io/html/ - as a First Public Working Draft.


Silence will be considered assent, but positive responses are preferred.  
In an effort to find a smoother way to assess consensus, there are three  
possible mechanisms for feedback, and you should pick the one you find  
most convenient:


You can provide a response in this email thread.

You can provide a comment or thumbs-up in the issue in the HTML repo -  
https://github.com/w3c/html/issues/515


You can provide a comment or thumbs-up in the issue in the WebPlatformWG  
repo - https://github.com/w3c/WebPlatformWG/issues/43


There is no need to use more than one of these mechanisms, as the chairs  
will collate the results.


If many people use the issues instead of email, we will likely propose a  
change to the work mode for assessing consensus.


There will be a separate thread on the merits of any procedural change -  
please *only* reply to this thread to support or oppose the FPWD  
publication.


cheers

Chaals, for the chairs
