- 00:15:04 [MattSEA]
- jg: would provide orientation on what the user is navigating through.
- 00:15:33 [MattSEA]

- 00:20:45 [MattSEA]
- kyle: There are only basic elements in the test suite?
- 00:21:01 [MattSEA]
- jg: Yes, those are for first requirements. We don't have all the tests in order. This test is for keyboard support.
- 00:21:33 [MattSEA]
- kyle: Some of these things only happen in complicated HTML pages.
- 00:21:55 [MattSEA]
- jg: We could create a test suite for Moz keyboard navigation, with complex markup that might appear on a web page.
- 00:21:59 [MattSEA]
- kyle: That would be great.
- 00:23:11 [MattSEA]
- Cathy: Has the Mozilla access proposal been updated with our comments?
- 00:23:25 [MattSEA]
- kyle: I'm still working on the revision of the proposal. I'll send it to Peter next week.
- 00:25:04 [ginn]
- I think the test suite doesn't have test for "Caret Browsing".
- 00:25:37 [MattSEA]
- Cathy: in the 1.8 document?
- 00:25:47 [MattSEA]
- kyle: No, working from CVS tree.
- 00:25:57 [MattSEA]
- kyle: We will backport to the Mozilla trunk.
- 00:28:39 [MattSEA]
- Cathy: Aaron has prototyped a different mechanism.
- 00:28:49 [MattSEA]
- jg: To override keyboard behaviors with JS extensions.
- 00:30:30 [MattSEA]
- kyle: We will try to fix the major bugs before 1.7 release. Will be before end of November.
- 00:31:02 [MattSEA]
- kyle: We will do kbd navigation in the second stage, next year.
- 00:31:11 [MattSEA]
- kyle: (advanced)
- 00:31:34 [MattSEA]
- kyle: Table navigation, and form control navigation.
- 00:33:07 [MattSEA]
- Susan: Is Sun going to provide that JavaScript navigation glue, or will users provide their own?
- 00:33:13 [MattSEA]
- jg: Sounds like Aaron would be doing that.
- 00:33:17 [MattSEA]
- dp: Aaron says he'd written it.
- 00:33:47 [MattSEA]
- Cathy: He's only written the one extension for line-by-line mode. Just a prototype now to show you can use a JS extension to override.
- 00:34:17 [MattSEA]
- Cathy: We're still discussing options, but no commitment yet.
- 00:35:01 [MattSEA]
- jg: Kyle, next week you'll have your proposal out?
- 00:35:22 [MattSEA]
- kyle: Yes. Should be out next week.
- 00:35:42 [MattSEA]

- 00:36:08 [MattSEA]
- Cathy: Bigger question is AT for us.
- 00:36:15 [MattSEA]
- jg: Will probably have to wait to see these documents.
- 00:36:50 [MattSEA]
- jg: Would like to schedule a call for next Thursday.
- 00:38:06 [MattSEA]
- jg: If Aaron's extensions are possible, could be more flexible. Different groups could have different functionality.
- 00:39:25 [MattSEA]
- mm: Would be good to get Aaron on the call to explain the JavaScript thing.
- 00:41:29 [MattSEA]
- jg: Next meeting next week; will also set up another meeting in 2-3 weeks to discuss with Sun Beijing.
- 00:42:13 [MattSEA]
