Suggesting aria- in XML seems more troubling to me. 17:41:36 DO: I cannot even stomach even abstaining on something that makes - the namespace separator 17:42:44 and versioning 17:43:09 SW: Q: Is there anyone who cannot live with aria- in HTML as proposed by ARIA WG ? 17:43:37 DO: That is unreasonable question .. that not what ARIA propose 17:44:01 DO: I cannot live with something that propose - in both HTML and XML 17:44:49 DO: I could live with - for HTML and : for XML 17:44:56 -Ht 17:45:11 TimBL: Need to have same think in HTMK and XML -- DOM is the same 17:45:25 s/think/thing/ 17:45:39 s/HTMK/HTML/ 17:45:48 I think we have to acknowledge that HTML and XHTML will travel together, and only the _other_ XML languages are in play 17:47:15 (following consequences of what Tim's saying) maybe in XHTML you would have a choice between aria: and aria- ? the first if you import the aria namespace, the latter if you import the aria namespace? 17:47:42 It seems to me that you'd want aria- to work on SW: We need a concrete proposal 17:48:36 TimBL: Dave can we agree to let them to add attributes like 'rel' was added 17:49:06 DO: Why have aria- why not just pick names that don't clash 17:50:24 TimBL: We reserve judgement on what happens in future abt HTML versioning and modularity 17:50:59 q? 17:51:58 DO: How many things are there in ARIA? 17:52:07 TimBL : Abt 30 17:52:34 q+ 17:52:44 DO: Change names for those whose names clash and use barenames 17:53:03 q? 17:53:16 ack danc 17:53:33 I like the approach of doing without the aria- prefix (that DO articulated) 17:53:52 DanC: They say we have looked at it and it's not worth it -- ARIA has recognition -- extra characters do not cost much 17:54:03 blah. 17:54:05 DO: Norm, what do you think? 17:54:16 s/ it's not worth it/ it's coherent but not worth it/ 17:55:30 q+ 17:55:37 Norm: I'm conflicted whether to object and be overruled or go along with a flawed proposal 17:55:56 (re-reading, yes, http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2008Apr/0226.html is still my position; I'm not sure it makes sense as a position/question for the group) 17:56:25 Norm: There may be a small chance we can get them to do something reasonable 17:56:35 How about, rather than object or allow, just publish a neutral note that says what we think without claiming to have authority? 17:56:43 Proposal1: The TAG suggests that the WAI-PF go ahead and add attributes into the HTML5 spec, using "aria-" as a prefix with liaison with the HTMLWG. That this in no way endorses the use of the same attributes with other specs, nor is this taken as being a solution for HTML versioning and modularization which still is an important ongoing issues. 17:56:45 Norm: I want to try and maintain what credibility we can 17:57:29 q? 17:57:32 q- 17:57:46 SW: It is hard to get them to change once things are deployed 17:57:54 Proposal1 works for me 17:58:32 ... though the WAI PF's current work isn't scoped to HTML, AFAIK 17:58:36 s/or allow/or accept/ 17:59:46 Noah: I don't object as far as it goes 18:00:07 Noah: Distributed extesibility remains a goal .... 18:00:35 Noah: Does not mention XML 18:01:53 How ahout: Distributed extensibility remains an important goal for languages used on the Web, and for XML languages in particular.
