Would a slide set help? Perhaps a demo? 13:16:06 Shawn: Perhaps an article or something to put in a newletter? 13:16:47 Jack: That would be useful. 13:21:10 zakim, unmute me 13:21:10 wayne was not muted, Wayne 13:21:52 Jack: Could be useful especially for an organization that is large, decentralized and encounters web accessibility at different times 13:22:47 zakim, please unmute me 13:22:47 Justin_Thorp should no longer be muted 13:23:08 Wayne: Can also be useful for a university system 13:23:39 Judy: How can it be used? 13:25:10 Wayne: Will look at issues dealing with policy and process issue. May need to add a section on 'How to get started?' 13:27:36 William: This document is for those where the wall have already been kicked down. There is a need for a document that helps to knock the walls in the first place. 13:28:20 Judy: Can you clarify? 13:29:59 William: Many places are still not ready to recognize that they have accesssibility needs 13:30:55 zakim, please unmute me 13:30:55 Pasquale should no longer be muted 13:31:11 Judy: Other reactions to Wayne's comments 13:31:24 soory seems my mic dont work 13:31:35 zakim, please unmute me 13:31:35 Pasquale was not muted, pasquale 13:33:41 George: In middle of a K-12 competition. The business model may be useful, especially with community colleges 13:35:51 Justin: University system in Michigan is similar to what Wayne describes. May also have uses with particular classes and help students understand case for accessibility 13:37:03 Judy: Are there additional things we could do to make this useable? Such as an introduction. 13:38:46 Judy: Perhaps articles. Perhaps case studies - though this might be too labor intensive 13:39:40 Shawn: Perhaps a slide set. This could provide a lot of use for minimal effort 13:40:15 Judy: Lets focus of the idea of a slide set for right now 13:41:36 George: A slide set would be a good idea. Perhaps links to case studie 13:42:18 George: Perhaps links to examples 13:42:37 (doh, just found a comma missing in the business case :/ 13:43:11 Judy: It would be great to meet that goal but need to maintain vendor neutrality 13:43:58 George: ...graphical... 13:44:43 Shawn: Clarifies George's comment that examples of particular issues 13:45:50 Wayne: Thinks slide set is a good idea, but it needs to be accessible 13:45:55 (discussion on how it fits in the process, what you do first) 13:46:58 sorry, my mic doesn't work, i'll send email to the list with my experiences about it ;-( 13:47:19 q+ to say we need that 3 carrots & a stick image. 13:47:59 Liam: Can be useful but we probably make up our own sets of slides depending on client and especially their acceptance of the need for accessibility and hostility 13:48:30 ok 13:48:43 Judy: The more resistence of the audience the more that data is needed? 13:50:03 Judy: Slides may be the best low effort and return item. Is there a better approach than a mini-slide set. 13:50:43 on Sept 6, I gave a 4 hours talk about 13:50:43 "Web accessibility: opportunities and rules". Audience: functionaries of Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Naples. 13:50:43 Content: Web accessibility opportunities and rules for Government and 13:50:43 Administration 13:50:43 Readings: 13:50:45 Introduction to Web Accessibility 13:50:47 http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/accessibility.php 13:50:49 How People with Disabilities Use the Web 13:50:51 http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/PWD-Use-Web/ 13:50:53 Developing a Web Accessibility Business Case for Your Organization 13:50:54 Shawn: about RSS feed: started listing all the pointers to the business case, but stopped 'cause there are too many -- in all sorts of places & languages - looks like a couple 100 13:50:55 http://www.w3.org/WAI/bcase/Overview 13:50:57 and the results and feedback was really good! 13:50:59 I'm going to translate it into italian ;-) 13:51:28 Wayne: Brief annoucements used in conjunction with slide sets could be effective 13:53:46 Judy: Staying with slide set approach. What do you want to see included? 13:54:15 all the document 13:54:36 no, 13:54:48 Shawn: Reading Pasquale's comments since his microphone is not working 13:55:10 can't hear me? 13:55:33 Shawn: Has anyone does slides already? 13:57:34 Wayne: Slide set should address different levels of acceptance 13:58:36 Jack: Different levels of knowledge and acceptance of accessibility on the web 13:59:29 William: Different history should be reflected in slides 14:01:32 Judy: Expains more of the background that William is refering to with MicroSoft and accessibility 14:04:00 Judy: To have the case studies work well they would have to be directly retlated to web accessibility 14:04:37 Judy: Should we have Shawn add an introduction? 14:04:54 Shawn: Probably not. 14:06:00 Judy: Any other ideas? 14:07:47 Liam: Taking a step back and talking to people that this is a hard struggle 14:08:20 Judy: A resource document for advocates? 14:09:21 Wayne: Important thought - but have not done anything with it 14:11:07 Wayne: A web-based survey form to deal with the need for web accessibility 14:11:56 Justin: Would it be possible to give things to bloggers 14:12:26 William: Need a clipping service 14:13:02 q+ there are plenty of social bookmarking tools out on the web 14:18:18 Judy: Paying attention to timing. Simple strategies such slides sets, blogger names, mentions in conference may have a multiplier effect 14:19:12 q? 14:19:17 ack shawn 14:19:17 shawn, you wanted to say we need that 3 carrots & a stick image. 14:19:27 q+ justin? 14:20:06 ack justin 14:20:28 Judy: Any follow-up thoughts that people have are welcomed 14:20:40 Regrets: [needs to be culled from EOWG e-mail list] 14:21:06 -Bingham 14:21:15 -George_Heake 14:21:19 -LiamM 14:21:21 -wayne 14:21:22 -Justin_Thorp 14:21:35 Justin: There are many public clipping services that may be useful 14:21:44 by all 14:22:06 -Pasquale 14:22:15 -Jack 14:22:29 -Shawn 14:22:36 -Helle 14:22:40 zakim, who is here? 14:22:40 On the phone I see Judy, Loughborough 14:22:41 On IRC I see Jack, LiamM, pasquale, Zakim, RRSAgent, shawn, Justin 14:22:55 -Loughborough 14:23:00 rrsagent, make logs world 14:23:03 -Judy 14:23:05 WAI_EOWG()8:30AM has ended 14:23:06 Attendees were Jack, Judy, Bingham, George_Heake, Justin_Thorp, Loughborough, Pasquale, wayne, Shawn, Helle, LiamM 14:23:07 rrsagent, draft minutes 14:23:07 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2005/10/21-eo-minutes.html shawn 14:24:45 judy_dc has joined #eo 14:25:21 LiamM has left #eo 16:47:34 Zakim has left #eo 17:59:23 shawn has left #eo
