HTML5 Image Description Extension Working Draft

The HTML Working Group has published an updated Working Draft of the HTML5 Image Description Extension. This specification defines the "longdesc" attribute that enables web authors to provide longer text descriptions for complex images. It is developed by the HTML Accessibility Task Force in coordination with the HTML Working Group and the WAI Protocols and Formats Working Group (PFWG). Please see important additional information in the call for review e-mail. This Working Draft is available for review through 20 June 2013 to determine if there are any outstanding issues before it progresses to Last Call.
