WCAG2.0

achuter: not much progress over the last week or two - same draft still in place

<jo> Resume from MEASURES

Yeliz: working now on V1 comparison document ...
... not clear when this will be completed - should have an idea next week

Achuter: there are WCAG2.0 provisions for using relative units of measure
... Mininimal Keystrokes and NAVbar BP points are not mentioned in WCAG2.0 as they are difficult to test...
... content w/o frames is usually easier to use by anybody ...

jo: break from WCAG for now - over to Bryan re BP2

BP-2

Bryan: still collecting comments on the existing BP-2 draft...
... perhaps bringing up specific BP-2 topics on the public list may help ...

srowen: just sent a message to the list on that

<jo> ACTION: Bryan to raise specific points of discussion on Public List [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/02/14-bpwg-minutes.html#action04]

<trackbot-ng> Created ACTION-660 - Raise specific points of discussion on Public List [on Bryan Sullivan - due 2008-02-21].

Sean message is at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-bpwg/2008Feb/0059.html

srowen: we should clarify ADC ...

Bryan: ADC is a broader scope question - need to be resolved by the group...

srowen: concerned that not addressing the ADC assumptions could make specifcying BPs quite difficult

jo: perhaps we should raise the ADC issue and have another discussion on the public list

Kai: technical discussion should be on a public list ...

Bryan: but should the discussion of scope be on the public list?

<srowen> + 1 to discussing on the public list

Jo: yes - unless there are objections...
... back to review Alan's doc ...

http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/TaskForces/Accessibility/drafts/WD-mwbp-wcag-20080129/mwbp-wcag20.html#MEASURES

Accessibility Doc (bis)

<achuter> NON-TEXT_ALTERNATIVES

<jo> Resuming from http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/TaskForces/Accessibility/drafts/WD-mwbp-wcag-20080129/mwbp-wcag20.html#NON-TEXT_ALTERNATIVES

achuter: there are non-text elements other than images...

jo: do not rely on the longdesc attribute of the img element which is often not supported

achuter: should clarify that plug-ins may interfere with assistive technology - or be unavailable in a mobile environment
... page titles are quite important in a disability context - using short titles (as per BP) may not be helpful

Yeliz: it is important to have descriptive titles - size matters less...

jo: ... albeit having short titles makes sense in a mobile context

kai: spelling out the issues does not necessarily help to resolve conflicting requirements (WCAG vs. mobile BP)

<achuter> yes

achuter: but there are also some WCAG - mobile BP synergies - e.g., having the most differentating info first does help...

<jo> [resume doc review at POP_UPs next time]
