   • Pete Brunet, Mike Squillace, Itoh-san (Takashi Itoh), Larry Weiss, Barry Feigenbaum
3. Structuring of tables - row objects as intermediate children (table, rows, cells)
   • There were two proposals for the case where focus events are fired from cells:
     1. Larry: There needs to be a way to get the row and column indexes. This could be done using IA2::uniqueID. The table can map uniqueIDs to row/column indexes.
     2. Pete: Another possible option is that the AT senses a ROW object, uses indexInParent (CELL in ROW) as the column index, and uses indexInParent on the ROW object (ROW in TABLE) to get the row index.
   • The latter approach has two problems:
     1. It won't work for tables with spans.
     2. Linux has no roles for ROW and COLUMN; this is a problem for multi-platform apps.
   • The former approach will be documented.
4. Proxy DLL
   • The DLL needs to be built by a non-IBMer and published.
5. Eclipse
   • The work is temporarily on hold through July.
