Codecs, copyright meta data. 10:03:40 HS: The details of the Codecs are not related to a11y. 10:03:41 present: Janina_Sajka, Stefan_Schnabel, Michael_Cooper, Henri_Sivonen, Joshue_O'Connor, Artur_Ortega, Frank_Olivier, Gregory_Rosmaita, John_Foliot 10:03:48 silvia, i mis-typed -- the actual passcode is 92473# (WAIPF#) 10:04:44 present+ Philip_Jägenstedt 10:05:36 HS: The HTML 5 Wg has not come to a general concensus on what codec to require. I am concerned that unrelated a11y issues are included in a doc as a11y requirements. 10:06:31 zakim, move 92473 to here 10:06:33 ok, MichaelC; that matches WAI_PFWG(WAIPF)3:00AM 10:07:13 HS: Who will be affected by not including copyright meta data? 10:07:25 +q 10:08:39 homata has joined #html-a11y 10:08:46 JS: This can effect people with disabilities as captioning was not happening if the meta data was not there, as of the source material did not have copyrighting meta data, then the captioning may not happen. 10:08:49 +silvia 10:08:54 zakim, mute me 10:08:54 silvia should now be muted 10:09:22 present+ Silvia_Pfeiffer 10:09:42 JF: We need to have a means of including a way to get at this meta data.. its only one type, there is also Dublin Core.. adding meta data to transcipts is not overly complex..etc 10:10:02 closed-captioning is thought of as a real-time transcription of what is said and indications of ambient sounds, and historically has been viewed as repllicating the content of the captioned item 10:10:10 JS: HS asked a good question, I don't know if there is a diff whether in band or in meta data. 10:10:14 audio description goes off-script to provide descriptions that are essential to an understanding of the content 10:10:46 JS: Don't want to get hung up on definition.Our issue is that copyright data gets carried effectively. 10:10:54 JS: We need an effective mechanism. 10:11:31 HS: My problem is that the doc states MUST requirements. 10:11:33 q? 10:11:38 JS: Could you give us some examples? 10:11:44 ack JF 10:12:08 HS: You could take out the requiements to add copyright meta data, take out the entire requirement? 10:12:13 JS: No. 10:13:06 HS: Specific implementation requirements mean that, if the requirements change in the future, I hope we don't fail to meet future requirements if things are currently over specified. 10:13:54 HS: It should not be presented as it is. If its an inventory thats fine, it doesn't read like this. 10:14:07 JS: Is there a problem about carrying copyright data? 10:14:12 We shouldn't be designing HTML (a language that will be with us for 10:14:14 decades) around the short-term solutions. Problems in the platform should be fixed correctly, not using band-aid techniques. 10:14:30 HS: No, I don't object to that. My concern is overspecifiying in the spec. 10:14:40 HS: I would like to remove the requirement. 10:14:52 q+ 10:14:55 we have to provide the tools to make the information understandable -- all the tools need to be in the toolbox, authors can use items from that toolbox 10:14:57 JS: We need to include it. 10:15:11 a? 10:15:13 q? 10:15:19 HS: I have a problem with must requirements in the detail. 10:15:25 s/a?// 10:15:28 JS: Can you help us with the wording? 10:15:47 HS: Requiring usage rights data is a problem. 10:16:17 HS: A place for copyright notices is fine, but meta data is a rat hole. RDF issues etc. 10:16:48 JF: I object to calling RDF crazyness. 10:16:58 plus 1 to JF 10:17:23 JS: This may be unintentional, in terms of implementation specifics. 10:17:47 JS: We are talking about education environments in particular. 10:18:08 MC: We are saying we need to require this info if available. 10:18:11 +1 to (Michael Cooper) 10:18:37 MC: It may be less problematic than you think. 10:19:43 HS: If you say you must support meta data, then it brings in RDF etc. I don't have a problem with inventorying everything, I have a prob about the docs presentation - what it says and its presentation are different. 10:19:52 JS: Lets talk about what it says. 10:19:56 q? 10:20:15 JS: TOPIC: Metadata 10:20:26 JS: Overview on what metadata is.. 10:21:51 General discussion on metadata, captioning, multiple content versions, resource retrieval, implementations, suitable mechanisms etc 10:22:32 s/JS: TOPIC: Metadata/TOPIC: Metadata/ 10:22:35 AO: When watching TV, I can get my preferences for audio description etc. I would like this functionality in HTML 5. 10:22:39 ack s 10:22:39 zakim, unmute me 10:22:44 silvia was not muted, silvia 10:23:09 SP: Two questions, 1) Copyright 2) RDFa were mentioned. 10:23:23 (I mention RDF--not RDFa today) 10:23:30 *mentioned 10:23:47 s/I mention RDF/I mentioned RDF/ 10:24:10 SP: Is there a fundamental problem, where a piece of content needs to be tracked and rights associated? 10:24:24 SP: What is the problem? 10:24:53 HS: The data needed for a resource, a generic data mechanism is a rat hole. We should commit to it. 10:25:14 SS: It seems to me that the term meta data does not specify how it relates to a11y. 10:25:28 can't pretend that metadata doesn't exist because some people think it is a rat hole 10:25:30 should *NOT* commit to a generic metadata mechanism 10:25:36 s/ We should commit to it/ We should not commit to it. 10:26:03 plus 1 to JF - not looking for rat holes, nor courting bubonic plague 10:26:20 JS: We are looking for a mechanism to support a11y. How can we fix this? 10:27:13 HS: By enumerating the data that is required for choosing the resource. 10:27:33 HS: More detailed overview.. 10:27:43 dublin core metadata? http://dublincore.org/groups/access/ 10:27:51 JS: Any problems with this SP, JF? 10:27:59 SP: By making it a finite list? 10:28:52 SP: I don't understand, are we too detailed? What elements and datafields etc this needs to be analysed. 10:29:02 SP: Would it be helpful to start on this? 10:30:04 scribe: Stefan 10:30:08 zakim, mute me 10:30:08 silvia should now be muted 10:30:24 MC: we need that list but with priorities 10:30:37 JS: we need to iterate that list, too 10:31:46 HS: we need concerns, what is needed to adopt requirements? That's th question. 10:32:36 FO: what is exact req. to provide e.g. copyright info? What is the User Agent Requirement? 10:32:42 The question is what happens if the "adopt" the requirements and some of them aren't met? 10:32:58 *if the WG adopts 10:33:03 q+ 10:33:51 zakim, unmute me 10:33:51 silvia should no longer be muted 10:33:51 s/if the "adopt"/if the WG adopts/ 10:34:08 JS: that depends, in an authoring tool eg. it can be maintained 10:34:23 q+ 10:34:48 q+ to talk about contingency engineering; not meeting requirements 10:34:59 Leonie_Watson has joined #html-a11y 10:36:03 regrets+ Kenny_Johar 10:36:12 AO (explains about regulations in different countries for suppying metadata info) 10:37:07 ack si 10:37:24 Silvia: explains metadata situation with img example 10:37:35 q? 10:38:39 q+ 10:39:38 (discussion continues) 10:39:39 ack me 10:39:39 MichaelC, you wanted to talk about contingency engineering; not meeting requirements 10:39:47 zakim, mute me 10:39:47 silvia should now be muted 10:39:54 MC: we needs to get to some process 10:41:02 MC: (explains engeneer view vs. spec. view is root cause of issue debating) 10:41:16 +q 10:41:27 +q 10:41:50 ack hs 10:42:41 q+ to talk about what "adopting" the document 10:42:59 HS: what to do with metadata?
