Understanding/Techniques document [from kford] 17:26:02 zakim, take up item 5 17:26:02 agendum 5. "Understanding/Techniques document" taken up [from kford] 17:27:22 Jeanne: Pleased by how this is working. Talking with WAI about not having Techniques document, but instead just an Understanding document, because WAI can't tell browser vendors HOW to do specific things. 17:28:08 Jeanne: Other groups seem supportive of UA doing it the way that best serves our audience, even if not consistent with other WAI projects. 17:28:14 Scribe: Greg 17:28:44 Jeanne: Still need to write test procedures to qualify for candidate review, so one can tell if success criteria have been met by implementers. 17:30:18 Kelly: For example, guideline saying you need to slow media playback to 75% of normal; the Understanding document would say to UA vendor the high-level requirement, and provide test criteria like "media played at 75% normal rate". 17:30:49 Jeanne: Give developers lots of information, including rationale, examples, resources, just not detailed implementation details. 17:31:42 ATAG Example: http://www.w3.org/WAI/AU/2009/ED-ATAG20-TECHS-20090909/ 17:32:03 Greg: I'd like to see the Rationale include breakdown of affected groups; I used that in Microsoft accessibility standards and it helped the audience really understand the benefits and organize or prioritize potential changes by affected population. 17:33:56 Jim: May be able to repurpose many WCAG tests, as all tests are ultimately done using browsers. 17:34:59 Jeanne: Instead of cribbing we could have our Resources section link directly to the tests in the other documents. 17:35:34 Kelly: Jeanne confirms test procedures will be manual steps. 17:35:58 Jeanne: Test procedures get done when going to last call. 17:36:32 Kelly: Developing automated test suite for our success criteria would be challenging, but manual procedures are fairly straightforward. 17:37:34 Greg: It's easy to say, 'test every piece of UI in the product and every potential piece of rendered UI', but in practice that's not realistic, so we have to provide guidance on prioritizing portions of the UI, etc. and probably test cases for rendered content. 17:38:24 Jeanne: Maybe. For WCAG to get out of CR, had to test every candidate and look at every page. Some sites were thousands of pages, and they looked at representative templates and tested those thoroughly. 17:39:24 Kelly: In reality it's true that not everything gets tested. He's seen different accessibility criteria take different approaches, such as "key user scenarios", etc. 17:41:14 Jeanne: Clarifies that these test procedures are used internally, not by vendors, where the working group demonstrates that the techniques are being used in the real world by demonstrating at least two instances in released products. 17:42:36 Greg: Sorry, my misunderstanding; I assumed we were talking about the Understanding document including testing techniques for vendors, purchasing agents, etc. for verification. 17:43:07 Jeanne: WCAG did publish their internal testing techniques for other people to use. 17:43:53 Greg: I recommend we include such in our understanding document, as it would be extremely useful for our audiences. 17:44:08 Jeanne: Postpone discussion until we have the full group. 17:44:29 zakim, close item 4 17:44:29 agendum 4, Face to face – sign up and book hotel - http://www.w3.org/2009/11/TPAC/, closed 17:44:31 I see 5 items remaining on the agenda; the next one is 17:44:32 5.

"Discuss part of survey not talked about from http://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/36791/20090722/" taken up [from kford] 17:46:55 All: Seem to never have discussed this survey in detail. 17:48:10 Propoasal 4.x Rationale, from Kim Patch: As Web pages have gotten more complicated, there are many situations where users who find it difficult or impossible to use the mouse need more than sequential navigation. Direct navigation allows such users, including speech users, to quickly navigate Web elements. 17:51:14 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2009JulSep/0023.html 17:51:36 Kim: Mark sent email on 7/30 with a new proposed guideline based on discussion of this original proposal. 17:51:42 Kim: Reminding group Mark may have taken things a bit further. 17:52:04 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/ 17:52:49 yes... I will have some input in time for the next concall. 17:54:32 also some comments on kelly's speed up/slow down of media 17:58:25 http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2009/ED-UAAG20-20090722/#gl-nav-structure 17:58:45 Kelly: People OK with accepting this as a replacement for 4.7, and then revising from there? 4.7 today only has two points, structured navigation and configuring set of important elements. This proposal adds three new success criteria. 17:59:01 Jeanne: Really likes it. 17:59:27 Kelly: Thanks Kim, Henny, and Mark for doing this work, and all in a week. 18:00:26 Jeanne: Discussion questions from Mark are included in the email. 18:03:26 Issue: There is some concern about the mixing/over-ride of app-supplied key 18:03:26 Created ISSUE-45 - There is some concern about the mixing/over-ride of app-supplied key ; please complete additional details at http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/tracker/issues/45/edit . 18:03:27 commands with auto-generated key labels. Pass-through display of author 18:03:29 defined keys? Configurable? 18:04:41 (That was not intended to create an issue, sorry.) 18:05:36 Kelly: Re second issue, feels developer should be able to choose ordering scheme they feel is appropriate, rather than us specifying one. 18:06:50 Jim: Default is usually for user agent to use the order of items in the source. 18:09:01 Greg: It seems like all the issues Mark lists are for techniques/understanding, don't have to deal with them now. 18:11:28 Greg: However there are some minor changes needed to the proposed success criteria. 18:17:02 Greg: Just want to make sure we think through the details and make sure there are no unintended consequences. 18:19:07 Kelly: Propose we accept it into the editor's draft. 18:20:02 Kelly's proposal was accepted. 18:20:14 action: JS to update draft replacing 4.7 with the proposal from http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2009JulSep/0023.html 18:20:14 Created ACTION-233 - Update draft replacing 4.7 with the proposal from http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2009JulSep/0023.html [on Jeanne Spellman - due 2009-10-01]. 18:20:51 RESOLUTION: Jeanne to update the draft with the new proposal for 4.7 from the Hakkinen email of July 30 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2009JulSep/0023.html 18:21:00 Proposal 4.X.1 "Directly activate elements" is covered by the rewrite to 4.7. 18:21:40 Proposal 4.X.2 Modify show/hide indicator 18:22:39 Kim thinks this could be relegated to Understanding, it was perhaps too detailed elaboration on the new 4.7.5 which requires direct navigation identifiers be perceivable. 18:23:03 General agreement. 18:23:22 Proposal 4.X.3 Control appearance of click indicators 18:24:13 Greg: This is also probably already covered by general configurability requirements. 18:25:16 Kelly: All of these seem to be generally calling on the developers to be intelligent and use good UI for the new convent it adds to or overlays onto the document. 18:26:10 Kelly: Could add a note to address this in the Understanding document, ensure the usability requirements are adequately conveyed to UA developers. 18:27:15 Greg: This applies in other areas, such as Alt text displayed in place of images. 18:27:56 Proposal 4.X.5 Toggle dynamic updates 18:28:32 Kim: Also could be relegated to Understanding, but definitely should address there as some pages with many links can cause problems. 18:30:29 -Jeanne 18:30:39 zakim, code?
