Issue-74/Action-133 canvas-accessibility
This item is not due this week, but I'm choosing to flag it at this
time as it as a target date of 2009-12-17 which would preclude us
for going to Last Call this year. I'd like to put out a call for
volunteers: if there is anybody out there with an interest and
ability to help pull this date in, I would like to ask that they
step forward.

Well, then, since the date on the action item for Canvas accessibility
is past last call date, we should begin the discussion about pushing
Last Call into 2010.
Per my original message: I would first like to see if there is any way
we can pull the date in. If we can not, I will agree that what you are
describing is the obvious consequence.
Any notion that either the HTML WG or the WHATWG view this as "not our
problem" is rather short-sighted. I am specifically asking that anybody
from either the WHATWG or HTML WG who has an interest in making last
call be this year and may be able to contribute to discussions on making
canvas be more accessible either attend tomorrow's call or at the very
least be on the #html-wg IRC channel at that time.
And, yes, I am intentionally cross-posting this request.
