Hi Barry/Donal,
FWIW the PDF aspect of Joe's points that he raised in the Samurai Errata
are a bit a no brainer. It's giving bad advice about a more subtle part
of the spec (use of @summary which is very useful for screen reader
users in particular to describe the purpose of a data table) that I take
issue with.
Also Accessibility issues aside, PDF isn't exactly a closed format.
Proprietary would probably be more accurate.[1]
Cheers
Josh
