I am currently investigating the best way to use CSS in these cases (to support assistive software). I will report later. 15:24:25 Gregory: Many screen readers can't cope with things that are only different by color 15:24:41 Steven: And we don't use del and ins? 15:24:50 Shane: No, because of validation problems 15:25:37 q+ 15:25:52 Roland: This is a semantics issue, not just styling 15:26:06 ackk r 15:26:09 ack r 15:26:19 Rich: I agree strongly 15:26:56 Gregory: Separating style and content doesn't guarantee accessibility 15:27:42 http://new.eic-community.org/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=441 15:28:03 Roland: There are other groups doing similar things 15:28:57 ... that even include stronger constraints than schema, that can be automatically extracted 15:29:10 Shane: How about role? 15:29:15 Steven: Or RDFa? 15:29:22 Roland: Good idea 15:29:58 Shane: Is there a subject and object? 15:30:18 Roland: I think it can be done 15:30:34 Rich: In any case we need to map it to a framework for accessible software 15:31:09 @role could easily be used to annotate the assertions instead of @class, which is what I am doing today. 15:31:14 Gregory: Let's continue on list 15:31:24 Topic: Future FtFs 15:33:07 Roland: So we just need a host for the second FtF.

I dont care that I can express a compact URI (e.g. in @resource or @about) 15:47:03 larger TAG issue: "Do the expected benefits of CURIEs outweigh the potential costs in introducing a third syntax for identifiers into the languages of the Web?" 15:47:23 Mark: Do we need to make a formal response? 15:47:36 Shane: Yes, it is framed as a LC comment 15:47:46 Mark: But there is not a lot of substance to their comment 15:48:26 TAG issue is named: "Abbreviating URIs in Web Languages" 15:48:39 Shane: in the role document CURIEs are not used in URI contexts, so their comment doesn't count 15:50:56 Steven: [argument about how IRIs do this already] 15:51:27 Shane: A fine argument, but we don't need to use it 15:51:43 ... we don't use CURIEs in such positions anyway 15:52:45 they did request: The TAG requests language to the following effect be included in the normative specification of CURIEs. 15:52:45 15:52:45 "CURIEs, including safe_curies, MUST NOT be used in attribute or element 15:52:45 content where URI content is specified in the relevant language 15:52:45 specification." 15:52:56 Mark: I don't think we need to consider their argument at all, since it is just not clear enough 15:53:22 Shane: I think we should react to that for the role spec 15:53:35 ... but put off the wider issue until the CURIE spec 15:55:43 Steven: Can't we just say "Thanks, this is what we do in role already" 15:55:59 Shane: We don't want to piss of the TAG 15:56:28 s/of/off/ 15:57:14 Roland: So how do we reply? 15:59:57 RESOLUTION: Reply to TAG that we don't use CURIEs in URI context in the role module 16:00:20 ACTION: Reply to TAG about CURIEs in role 16:00:59 Roland: They can respond on CURIEs when that spec is published 16:01:13 publication of the updated CURIE spec is imminent 16:01:18 [ADJOURNED] 16:01:33 -ShaneM 16:01:35 -markbirbeck 16:01:37 -Gregory_Rosmaita 16:01:39 -Roland 16:01:44 zakim, who is here? 16:01:47 -Rich 16:02:03 On the phone I see Steven 16:02:17 -Steven 16:02:19 IA_XHTML2()10:00AM has ended 16:02:27 Attendees were Roland, Steven, ShaneM, Gregory_Rosmaita, Rich, markbirbeck 16:02:33 On IRC I see markbirbeck, Rich, ShaneM, Nick, Roland, oedipus, RRSAgent, Zakim, Steven, myakura, Lachy, krijnh 16:03:11 rrsagent, make minutes 16:03:11 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2007/11/21-xhtml-minutes.html Steven 16:04:11 NickVdB has joined #xhtml 16:09:12 Rich has left #xhtml 17:19:09 Lachy has joined #xhtml 17:20:14 Lachy has joined #xhtml 18:17:11 Lachy has joined #xhtml 18:18:27 Zakim has left #xhtml 19:47:09 Roland has joined #xhtml 20:02:19 Roland has joined #xhtml 21:07:52 ShaneM has joined #xhtml 21:11:12 ShaneM_ has joined #xhtml 21:21:37 ShaneM has joined #xhtml 23:10:48 sbuluf has joined #xhtml
