The reason this group has been created is to finish this work. 16:10:23 CS: It is difficult for developers to know what to do with ARIA, so this is what these guidelines are for. 16:10:41 CS: Other pieces, are the mappings between accessibility APIs etc. 16:11:02 CS: There are various implementations but no real clear documentations etc. 16:11:21 Deliverables 16:11:21 * WAI-ARIA User Agent Implementation Guidelines, as a deliverable of the PFWG. This would be a Working Group Note and include a mapping of ARIA features to accessibility API features or some neutral abstraction. It is separate from the ARIA specification, but (if the User Agent Implementation Guidelines is on the Recommendation track) both documents should reach CR at the same time, as the user agent implementation guidelines is needed to document implementation 16:11:21 * Mapping of HTML features to accessibility API features, as a deliverable of the HTML WG. The mapping needs to be developed together with the ARIA mapping in the previous deliverable, in order to ensure that the recommendations of these two mappings are consistent. This may be subsumed into one or another of the HTML5 deliverables. 16:11:24 * The tests that are used to get WAI-ARIA through CR, as a deliverable of the PFWG. 16:11:27 * The tests that are used to get HTML5 through CR, as a deliverable of the HTML WG. 16:11:28 * Produce implementation guidance dealing with how access information from the formats is communicated to AT. 16:11:31 * Test suite development to a degree which can be adjusted as the work progresses. 16:11:33 * Propose additions and edits to the WAI-ARIA specification that are necessary to ensure user agent interoperability. 16:11:42 CS: I would like to see these mappings become normative. 16:11:59 http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria-ua-task-force 16:12:15 CS: There are other things here, DOM aspects, test suite development etc 16:13:00 Justin: I think thats great. 16:13:37 CS: Andy has agreed to edit these guidelines. 16:13:53 s/Justin/DB 16:14:11 Andy: No real ideas yet, needs a lot of work to get finished. 16:14:37 CS: There are docs online Mozilla etc.. 16:14:52 CS: We need to dig up everything out there and combine it. 16:15:05 CS: We could assign different APIs and work on those. 16:15:16 CS: What are other peoples experience? 16:15:28 DB: Surkov and I could do Mozilla. 16:15:52 CS: We hope to get people from Opera and Apple also. 16:16:20 zakim, mute me 16:16:20 Joshue should now be muted 16:16:31 :-) 16:16:44 CS: We should start with the mapping doc and implementors guide. 16:17:07 PF: The PF will do that independently. 16:17:14 s/PF/MC 16:17:33 MC: Suggest the group does not do these tests themselves just yet. 16:17:57 q+ to ask if can we leverage http://a11y.org/a11y-dom-api ???? 16:18:01 CS: I suggest that those who want to do the mapping work start with that. 16:18:50 MC: Don't know when work, research will be done. It will take time, confs etc coming up. It is on the agenda. Others here may have ideas of what are appropriate tools etc. 16:19:01 can we leverage http://a11y.org/a11y-dom-api ???? 16:19:04 CS: I see this all going into a large table. 16:19:44 CS: We could have a separate doc for each API? 16:20:16 MS: For each role you will need separate columns for each state and property etc. We see the HTML WG members also contributing. 16:20:29 CS: We just need check in check out functionality. 16:20:41 MC: That will be difficult, lets discuss that offline. 16:21:29 MC: A blank table with ARIA roles and states would be a start. I could kick that off. 16:21:54 Accessibility and Document Object Model Comparisons: http://a11y.org/a11y-dom-api 16:22:14 CS: Does anyone know of a way to get a list of all of the specs elements and @'s? 16:22:18 GJR: Which spec? 16:22:22 i would use mikesmith's barebones markup 16:22:24 CS: HTML 5 16:22:38 CS: Mike Smiths doc? 16:22:46 GJR: Yes, I was gonna suggest that. 16:23:02 CS: Who wants to do that? 16:23:12 DB: Is there anyone on both teams. 16:23:19 CS: I am, and GJR. 16:23:46 I can work with GJR. 16:24:03 CS: We can start that and share via mail etc. 16:24:15 CS: We can get together every two week?
