A side note. I was just looking through the draft of HTML 5 and noticed that one of the attributes they are taking out is the longdesc. I'm not familiar enough with this process to know if there will be a replacement or if there will not be a way to include long descriptions of images.

Granted, the standards process isn't done yet, so this may not be the final say . . .
