21:08:42 <Ben> techniques task force report
21:08:52 <Ben> worked through 5 tests in the test suite
21:09:31 <Ben> issue: does the language of the test need to be the same as success criteria? (ex. when SC text is long, can we say something shorter and define in text -- "decorative")
21:09:36 <ChrisR> test for decorative: http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/tests/test16.html

21:29:27 <wendy> gv if there is good but non-obvious issue, seems good to add. but to add after every guideline how benefits everyone, it if is obvious, will unneccessarily increase length
21:29:50 <wendy> gv perhaps reject this one (more obvious), but don't create blanket policy to reject all benefits to mass market

21:44:16 <wendy> ack john
21:44:47 <wendy> js my understanding, in order to enable signing avatar, it's something that the developer has to do to enable signing avatars. there is a user agent compoentne and something on the server.
21:44:55 <wendy> gv that is proprietary signing avatars.
21:45:08 <wendy> gv it's like braille, you can hide braille code in content for a braille printer
21:46:16 <wendy> jw if required, we woiuld be requiring people to provide interpretation of content (or similar to requiring translation into another language)
21:47:37 <Kesh> providing a signing avatar on each is beyond what we would be requiring
21:47:54 <Kesh> it would be good, however, would be to include an example .... gv.
21:48:05 <wendy> gv resolution something like: requirement for text for any audio already included (1.1), providing a signing avatar on each page is beyond what we could require. it would be good to include an example someplace (although we don't have a guideline to provide an example for)
21:48:07 <Kesh> wendy, want me to take notes from here?
21:48:10 <Andi> q+
21:48:14 <wendy> sure. thx kerstin

21:48:54 <Kesh> gv: making sure the information is there so that AT can provide a signing avatar IS within the guidelines and we should provide an example of that.
21:49:00 <Kesh> text being presented as sign-language
21:49:06 <wendy> q+ to say "recommend invite RNID to call and discuss"
21:49:08 <Kesh> gv: does that sound like a good resolution?
21:49:09 <wendy> ack andi
21:49:17 <Kesh> andi: does not have to be an example, but could be a benefit
21:49:33 <Kesh> andi: 1.1 would be best place, benefit for blind and deaf with examples of how
21:50:08 <Kesh> wendy: fine for this issue - but larger picture, might be good to include people from RNID to ensure we are addressing their concern -- more dialog with them as a group
21:50:31 <Kesh> gv: good for us to stack these up and walk through the whole thing
21:50:39 <Kesh> gv: excellent suggestion, Wendy
21:50:45 <gregg> ack wendy
21:50:45 <Zakim> wendy, you wanted to say "recommend invite RNID to call and discuss"
21:50:55 <wendy> action: wendy in response to RNID, suggest telecon w/them
21:50:56 <Kesh> wendy: assigning an action item to follow up and get con-call with RNID.
21:51:13 <Kesh> action: andi write the example for 1.1

21:52:11 <Kesh> gv: proposed resolution in issue summary: david recommends we close because this is clear in example #1.
21:52:41 <Kesh> gv: suggestion is that the example is not clear
21:52:45 <Kesh> gv: david says it is
21:53:26 <Kesh> gv: guideline 1.4, example 1: <reads example>
21:54:51 <Kesh> js: he is talking about the example cover a lot of different bases.
21:55:01 <Kesh> gv: "why leave implicit?"
21:55:12 <Kesh> gv: means "make it explicit."
21:55:20 <Kesh> confusion .....
21:55:51 <Kesh> wendy: this is from old example,
21:56:00 <Kesh> david: I mention that in the next comment
21:56:11 <Kesh> andi: says it's against the Jul 30th draft
21:56:49 <Kesh> wendy: his comments are on the old draft.
21:57:00 <Kesh> gv: example in the nov draft is the same as july draft.
21:57:05 <Kesh> andi sees the same
21:57:52 <Kesh> gv: this is example is light on dark, so why not have another example of dark on light 
21:58:05 <Kesh> gv: the answer is that this is an example, and we don't need to have one of everything
21:58:24 <Kesh> wendy: this is a totally different example .... reads guideline 1.1 ...
21:58:27 <Kesh> gv: we are on 1.4
21:58:37 <Kesh> gv: contrast
21:59:03 <Kesh> no worries ...
21:59:26 <Kesh> gv: is our guideline clear that either way works, and just the example is one way or the other ....
21:59:31 <Kesh> queue =kesh
21:59:36 <Kesh> q+ kesh
22:00:45 <Kesh> gv: we don't say anywhere that it doesn't really matter whether the background or text is the lighter or darker.
22:00:56 <wendy> q+ 
22:01:06 <Kesh> gv: someplace in the guidelines we add a parenthetical comment about how either can be the lighter or darker
22:01:16 <Kesh> gv: for sound, it is specific
22:01:29 <Ben> gv's proposal - 1.4, level 2, item 1 would read: 
22:01:30 <Kesh> gv: in that case, the quieter thing should be background, but for text, it can be either
22:01:31 <Ben> Text and diagrams that are presented over a background image, color, or text have a contrast greater than X1 where the whiter element (foreground or background) is at least Y1 as measured by _____. [V]
22:01:44 <Kesh> thanks, Ben.
22:02:01 <Kesh> q- kesh
22:02:15 <wendy> ack wendy
22:02:28 <Kesh> wendy: concerned that we are not addressing his issue -- 
22:03:07 <Kesh> wendy: I propose that if you want to propose that we change the guideline that you post it to the list.
22:03:33 <Kesh> gv: his problem is that we are only addressing dark on light, and that there is an implication that light on dark is allowed.
22:03:52 <Kesh> wendy: but why not just add further examples to illustrate this, as opposed to changing the SC.
22:04:40 <Kesh> wendy: but why not just further examples 
22:05:01 <Kesh> becky: I don't think the sc needs to be changed, because I assume it could be either.
22:05:08 <Kesh> gv: why not just make it clear in the sc, thena/
22:05:29 <Kesh> gv: I would hate to see adding a whole other example that is exactly the same as this but upside down
22:05:41 <Kesh> gv: anyone want the action item?
22:05:51 <Kesh> action: david can come up with a way to add to the example
22:06:21 <wendy> action 4 = david either propose new example or modify existing example for guideline 1.4 to address issue 1038
22:06:44 <Kesh> wendy, you're so good at that!  ;-)
22:07:06 <wendy> the image could similarly light letters on a dark background
22:07:13 <Kesh> js: the image could similarly be light letters on a dark background
22:07:45 <Kesh> david: image is not the right word
22:08:02 <Kesh> d: this example could also apply to light letters on a dark background
22:08:25 <Kesh> wendy: we're good on this one
