Action Item Reviews

JS: tweak to agenda - review of open issues - UI issues

action item review

<trackbot> Sorry, couldn't find user - item

action 25 - Steve F

<trackbot> Sorry, couldn't find user - 25

will leave open - steve not on call

<kliehm> ACTION-25?

<trackbot> ACTION-25 -- Steve Faulkner to post notice to a11y TF about http://dev.w3.org/html5/alt-techniques/ and how to make comments -- due 2010-04-22 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/track/actions/25

will re-visit Issue26 later in the call

subteams: Canvas

Canvas Subgroup Update

RS: awaiting responses - nothing heard over the last 2 weeks
... will 'shake the tree' on outstanding Canvas issues this week
... affecting deadline - needs more comments

<oedipus> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-canvas-api/2010AprJun/0003.html

<oedipus> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-canvas-api/2010AprJun/att-0003/2dcontext10-Apr-11.html

RS: concern of exposing this level of API
... Caret issues still needs resolution
... proposal exists - question is how does this get mapped to A11y API/platform

<inserted> scribenick: oedipus

Media Subgroup

JF: had lenghthy but productive call yesterday; touched on Javascript API for Text Associations; talked about timestamp format; don't have concise and formal rfequirements stateement -- spread over multiple docs, JF has action item to distill into something clear and cohesive
... playing catch-up; will submit document to TF when finished so can base future work
... discussed media requirments versus feature reqs
... need to address a11y in <video> and <audio> - urgency as is being implemented without a11y
... media in HTML5 - introduces multiple layers of complexity
... short term needs and longer term needs and reqs; roadmap for media work; very productive call; tough on attendees -- australians up early, europeans up late
... time was 3PM Vancouver time; workable -- will have series of calls over next few weeks;
... will perhaps later move to every-other-week

SF: WHAT WG stuff -- where does that fit into what is being done in media subgroup

JF: underscores sense of urgency; implementation outside of our control - have to focus on what is being currently implemented; need to re-review WHAT WG req documents -- seems to be a pretty good start but have to check to see if included everything; will consider and use in collating document

http://www.w3.org/2010/04/28-html-a11y-minutes.html

JF: encourge TF members to review the WHAT WG materials

<JF> thanks Greg

Summary Proposal

<inserted> JS: Wendy not on call

JS: propose we defer on this

CfC on the Zero Edits Resolution

Issues 90, 91, 93, 95, 96, 97

JS: one vote recorded against
... no-one else has commented

cyns: silence equals agreement?

JS: essentially, yes

Sub-Group Reports

<oedipus> i/TOPIC: Canvas Subgroup Report/TOPIC: Sub-groups/Sub-team Reports/

JS: suggestion is to vote on the call
... not required to respond to the email - email offered the opportunity to register your voice

MC: essentially silence DOES equal concurance
... removes the ability to have an objection later down the road

<oedipus> GJR does not object to closing CfC for issues 98, 91, 93, 95, 96, 97

<janina> RESOLUTION: The HTML-A11Y Task Force supports the zero-edit change

<janina> proposal at

<janina> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/KeepNewElements. We note

<janina> this proposal closely tracks our previously submitted recommendation

<janina> ISSUE-90 figure, ISSUE-91 aside, ISSUE-93 details, ISSUE-95 hidden,

<janina> ISSUE-96 progress, and ISSUE-97 meter at:

<janina> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Apr/1086.html

JS: per request of group from last week, that we come up with a formal language here
... JS is there discussion? Is there opposition?
... declare that we accept this, and JS will formally forward this to the WG Chairs

Missing @alt

JS: almost closed this last week, lacked formal language
... rectivated discussion on list this week
... 2 comments emerged

<richardschwerdtfe> need to drop off

JS: introduction of a "missing" atribute
... not sure if we want to further perfect the original proposal
... do we need to re-open?

<inserted> scribenick: oedipus

JF: responded late this morning before call -- discussing 2 issues on list - 1 is introduction of new attribute that is indicator that author explicitly declined to use alt text; second is crowd-sourcing or metadata mining as repair -- that is going back down the image hueristics issue which we voted down; need to de-link 2 issues; support specific indicator for missing @alt - indicates author provided opportunity to provide @alt text and did not; crowd-so

valid

JF: approved matt's statement on Issue 66 to strike OCR from text -- to me, crowd-sourcing and data-mining are similar

JS: personal statement (not wearing chair's hat) -- may have negative copyright implications - should stay clear of that; if not in spec, doesn't mean can't happen -- putting in spec gives far more credence than we are in position to accept

<JF> (thanks Greg)

KF: personally, agree with JS 100% -- dangerous thing to do

<inserted> scribenick: JF

JS: JS - anyone wishing to speak in favor of crowd-sourcing?

Cyns: adding it to UAAG might be a good idea, but not the spec

GJR: it could be added to SteveF's guidance document

JS: appears consensus of call that crowdsourcing not be included in the spec
... JS leaves open the question what to do with the 'Flickr' problem

<oedipus> GJR: would like to use SteveF's document to point out how crowd sourcing might work with a tool such as the w3c open source tool RDFPic

JS: a "missing' attribute would not be objected to, but we leave to the HTML WG to decide
... not sure if it is important to hold up consensus of current proposal
... appears that we have a good recommendation

Cyns: perhaps vote on the existing proposal, and suggest a sperate Change Proposal for any new attribute
... i.e. @missing or equiv

JS: I believe that this might be the better way forward

<oedipus_> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Apr/0332.html

SF: agrees that this kind of guidance could go into the guidance document he is working on

<oedipus_> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Apr/0332.html

GJR: yes, could add the metadata stuff he floated on the list to document steve is working on as well

<oedipus_> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Apr/0307.html

JS: steve's document will include both practical guidance and a look at future possibilities

GJR: will contribute proposed Appendix text for SteveF's textual alternatives "module"

<oedipus_> ACTION: Gregory - prepare text for SteveF's guidance document about future of data-mining using RDFPic methodology outlined in post to list [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/04/29-html-a11y-minutes.html#action01]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-28 - - prepare text for SteveF's guidance document about future of data-mining using RDFPic methodology outlined in post to list [on Gregory Rosmaita - due 2010-05-06].

<oedipus_> plus 1 to approval now with addendum later

<janina> RESOLUTION: The HTML-A11Y Task Force supports the change proposal at

<janina> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/ImgElement20090126to

<janina> implement WAI Consensus Guidance that a missing text alternative should

<janina> be an error in conformance checkers. We expect the error text will

<janina> reference additional guidance on text alternatives in WCAG support

<janina> materials.

proposal from cyns is to vote on previous/existing alt text proposal, and ask Laura et al to work on @missing or equiv separately

<oedipus> plus 1 to approval now with addendum later

JS: any discussion? any objections on adoption of the Change Propsoal?

greg to re-format IRC log - thanks

Deadlines

JS: not just the a11y TF being put under pressure
... HTML WG Chairs are pushing all TFs and groups
... heading towards a Last Call
... deadlines can be positive - they force decisions - no need to continue talking
... and highlights real open issues
... as long as we are reasonable in moving forward
... agree to work with deadlines, as long as we remain in control
... TF needs to start thinking seriously about deadlines
... example - media is still too wide open, however canvas is well along and finding a deadline for that might be easier

GJR: one thing to ask the WG is to remember that we are replacing some things that have been remove - we are being asked to re-engineer some things, and that takes time

JS: aware that some old battles appear to be being re-fought

Deadlines for TF Deliverables

JS: suggesting late May for Canvas resolution (20th or 27th)
... Wendy not on call to discuss Summary, but Proposal exist to re-install @summary as found in HTML4 to act as a place holder
... to remove 'pressure' for now, with understanding that we are working on a more comprehensive solution

Cyns original proposal was poorly received by the WG, which is why she went back to it originally

PC: as a result to that significant feedback, Cyns went back to the drawing board, which is why Proposal B emerged - in another direction

Cyns: Proposal B doesn't seem to be any less controversial than the orignal propsoal
... if we can get a position to re-instate the orignal @summary, that would buy time
... but don't feel that this will move forward based upon previous exchanges

PC: good question - if there was a bug that stated re-instate HTML4 accessibility issue (@summary) then that might work - asking for more guidance

might be feasible as an operational issue, but might not give us amuch actual guidance

Cyns: Cyns - what that would give us is taht we could stop arguing about it, and focus on real engineering work (canvas , ARIA mappings, etc.) - allows us to focus engineering resources on the hard bits

not on the emotional battles that many consider to be old news

+ 1 greg

<oedipus> GJR believes first question to be answered vis a vis summary is: attribute or element

JS: Wendy's work is on improving table analysis to reduce the need for a summary mechanism

SF: might be seen as a backwards step
... won't move issue forward

<Zakim> oedipus, you wanted to say that we still have competing summary proposals

Cyns: *if* we could do this just for summary, might find reception

KF: agrees with most of what cyns said, however if should not propose something predicated upon something that may or may not happen in the future

<oedipus> http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Table

<oedipus> http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Table_Summary

Cyns: put back HTML4 text, work will continue, it may or may not be fruitful replacing some of the use-cases of summary

GJR: points out we have competing proposals summary as attribute versus summary as an element
... suggest we decide which thing it should be: attribute or element
... gives us a clear path on whether we continue with the HTML4 perspective or as a new work effort

Cyns: would like to maintain status quo, only because it works today - use as a deffering move
... then address from an engineering issue down the road

JS: is there an objection here?

<oedipus> http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Table_Summary#Proposals

<oedipus> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/summary_element

JS: We have a consensus on direction - JS and Cyns will work on language for a Recommendation for next week to formally address this

<oedipus> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/tableInfoProposal

<oedipus> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/tableSummaryProposal

JS: HTML to ARIA mapping meetings on Tuesdays 3:00 PM Boston time

discussions

JS: other interested parties invited to participate
... we appear to have real action and next steps to all existing items

MCooper's Bug Review

Action26 on Michael - remaining UI bugs

<MichaelC> Discussion on open bugs

<oedipus> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Apr/0283.html

MC: reviewed open bugs, and is 'stuck' because bugs discuss mor about what Use Agents should do
... agrees that something should be said, but not sure if the spec is the right place to say it
... 2 response today
... Laura and Ian so far

<oedipus> cooper's bug post: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Apr/0333.html

<oedipus> laura's reply: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Apr/0285.html

<oedipus> hixie's reply: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Apr/0322.html

<oedipus> hixie: If there are UI-specific requirements in the spec, please file bugs. In most cases, those are mistakes. (There's a few special cases where I have included UI requirements; those are generally either for accessibility or security reasons, and even those should generally only be "SHOULD"-level requirements.)

MC: would like to propose to take Ian's interpretation - these are User Agent issues - and proposes to close them
... they should not be spec bugs
... they are interface issues + we have other issues we are working on

Cyns: what to do if we disagree

?

<oedipus> hixie: The distinction is between what is UI-agnostic UA behaviour and what is UI-specific UA behaviour.

SF: does this take into account things like Drag and Drop?

agrees that they should perhaps not be spec'ed, but they need to be referenced to guidance, etc.

MC: 1 criteria to use is to understand expected UI behavior

ie in Drag and Drop - not sure that it is complete enough to be accessible

having gone through the exercise, can see that this might be "mixed"

Cyns: not comfortable with Ian's blanket assertion that this doesn't apply to the spec

JS: next steps?

MC: with some of the bugs, it is clear what to do. those that are unclear to be put out and considered case-by-case

Cyns would prefer that

+1 from SF, and myself

JS: thanks all
