16:10:05 RS: We discussed this on the ARIA call, but ALT text is considered fall back content, so ALT is rendered when images are turned off 16:10:23 RS: TITLE would not be used unless there is no ALT 16:10:44 JS: We don't want to discuss the issue now 16:10:58 RS: Should I post the ARIA accessible name algorithm?

16:18:03 Everit: If people use the javascript way then we need to make that accessible too 16:18:57 CS: People don't use it for two reasons, pop-up bloclers stop it and people do not like the windows chrome, so people stopped using it 16:19:49 Everit: I thought about both of those things, it is far more work to load content into a URL, separate a small least of code in content management systems 16:20:14 MikeSmith has joined #html-a11y 16:20:17 Everit: So it more than just creating a little HTML code 16:20:37 Everit: We need to have a way for authors to say this is modal code 16:20:42 +Mike 16:21:03 Evrit: I will take that as ano, are there any other comments? 16:21:13 MS: Sorry I am late 16:21:15 Sean has joined #html-a11y 16:21:28 JS: We are working on 133 16:21:45 JS: Everit has all the guidance we need, the show is yours 16:21:58 MS: Did we go through sub team reports 16:22:09 JS: No, we have those later 16:22:17 MS: Can we change topic to 134 16:22:21 TOPIC: 134 16:22:36 MS: Can you give us some background 16:22:56 http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/134 16:23:10 ISSUE-134: Provide tablist and tab states for menu and command elements respectively 16:23:10 Sorry... adding notes to ISSUE-134 failed, please let sysreq know about it 16:23:18 Everit: HTML5 doesn't have a way to create a tabbed interface, tab panel, many JS toolkits allow developers to do this 16:23:29 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10831 16:23:44 Everit: HTML5 is suppose to enable developers, it should be considered for inclusion 16:24:04 MS: You raised a bug, the bug is marked as fixed, since the eidtor made a change 16:24:27 MS: reading the editors comment and he thought is is a CSS issue, presentational issue 16:24:50 MS: Everit responded that it is semantic 16:25:13 q? 16:25:34 Everit: It is both presentational and sematnic, the important part is identifying the tabs and tab panels, what is currently selected and what is in the containers 16:25:48 MS: Something that is the domain of WAI ARIA? 16:26:18 CS: It is covered by ARIA, but it is hard to build in JS, the panel is the child of the tab 16:26:33 q? 16:26:40 CS: I guess there are two things, it is hard ito build in script 16:26:53 RS: There are alot of UI libraries that have this widget 16:27:13 CS: A lot of UI libraries have then, but it should be available in browsers 16:27:25 gfreed has joined #html-a11y 16:27:30 RS: I am not sure how they will work on mobile devices 16:27:59 CS: The semantics will allow for rendering on mobile, different presentation and control 16:28:10 Sean has joined #html-a11y 16:28:15 MS: The point today is what is the next step to move forward 16:28:39 MS: We need to decide how big a priority this is, do we move this to last call or not 16:28:59 MS: This is a critical feature for HTML5? 16:29:37 Everit: yes, I am strongly oppose leaving it to ARIA, I think HTML5 should not consider ARIA as fall back 16:29:54 + +1.617.300.aabb - is perhaps WGBH? 16:29:55 MS: So what do other s on the call think? 16:30:25 617.300 is wgbh. 16:30:41 Zakim, who's on the phone? 16:30:41 On the phone I see Everett_Zufelt, Michael_Cooper, Cynthia_Shelly, [Microsoft], Rich_Schwerdtfeger, Janina, Léonie_Watson, Jon_Gunderson, kliehm (muted), Mike, WGBH? 16:30:43 RS: I think it is a nice to have, it introduces problems with interoperability with desktop and mobile technologies for scripting libraries 16:30:44 [Microsoft] has paulc 16:30:59 RS: I can understand why HTML5 would not commit to implementatino 16:31:15 MC: We don't have many people from browser teams 16:31:29 PC: That questio is better directed at Frank 16:31:57 MS: I agree with RS that it is important, but it is up to developers 16:32:28 RS: There is no question about the importance, but the implementation may be a problem 16:32:39 CS: I am not sure the spec would be that difficult 16:32:41 q? 16:32:56 JS: How much of a spec impact is this? 16:33:45 RS: The HTML5 is very perspective on what UA should do, it will be a little harder for mobile to do, where is the tab panel placed 16:34:07 MS: Everit what is your take on the impact to the spec and user agent implementers? 16:35:04 Everit: Perhaps using stacking on mobile devices, list of tabs wrapping, some people might choose vertical displays, probably easy, but up to the author 16:35:45 Everit: The parent container can be sized and positioned, the borwsers will have default, the author can override with CSS and states 16:36:11 Everit: the rendering is up to the user agent 16:36:29 RS: If this being asked, do we need some specific CSS selectors? 16:36:47 MS: That is a detial to be worked out, before we moe forward we need a change proposal 16:37:10 MS: It is going to need to have a call from the chairs for concrete proposals. 16:37:34 JS: Everit has agreed to write a change proposal, it doesn't sound like we are in a great hurry 16:37:47 MS: We are at the point to last call 16:38:24 MS: If we want to get this in, we should have some urgancy, this will probably come up at last call though, others will note this as a deficiency 16:38:40 MS: Everit when could your proposal be ready? 16:38:55 Everit: Both by december 3rd 16:39:06 PC: 133 is much more important 134 16:39:34 PC: Maybe its so obvious, but I did not hear the work accessibility 16:40:01 PC: Was the bug about accessibility, make it easier for authors 16:40:19 Everit: Without this it is harder for authors 16:40:40 PC: You need to motivate people in the change proposal 16:40:57 PC: That is a really good rationale since that refutes the point of the editor 16:41:23 PC: I want to encourage you to spend time motivating the change proposals, than rationale 16:42:09 JS: The understanding that we come to the table with, is not the same we are reviewing the change proposals 16:42:14 q? 16:42:31 MS: Anything else anyone wants to say today? 16:42:39 MS: What's next 16:42:55 JS: Let's check in with the sub teams, I can do media 16:43:16 MS: Let's do media now 16:43:52 JS: We had a long call yesterday, we looked at SRT and what is supported today of the features requirements 16:44:18 JS: We had presentations on how to use TTL, it is a recommendation today, we had some slides on SRT 16:44:39 JS: We say 3 major areas of discrepency, it is fixable 16:44:59 JS: There is one issue in TTML related to live captioning 16:45:21 JS: The group is frowning on the use of XML, but we are a W3C group 16:45:22 -> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Nov/0214.html Minutes from Media Subteam Mega-Telecon on Wednesday 17 16:45:51 JS: We see that flat navigation is supported, it is not hierarchical, can't do the ePub nesting 16:46:06 JS: We discussed how it could be done 16:46:32 JS: Other issues are META data, I can't remember the 3rd issue 16:47:02 JS: We are not have an opinion of having a strong opinion, but we will emphasize the gaps on what need to be supported 16:47:35 MS: Tank you, good summary 16:47:46 MS: TOPIC: Bug Triage 16:48:05 -> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Nov/0204.html Minutes of the November 16 HTML Accessibility Bug-Triage teleconference 16:48:14 Martin: Three things... 16:48:18 Zakim, mute me 16:48:18 sorry, MikeSmith, I do not know which phone connection belongs to you 16:48:22 Zakim, mute Mike 16:48:22 Mike should now be muted 16:48:24 JS: There is a open mike.. 16:48:43 Martin: Looking at the issue of embedded content... 16:49:13 Martin: MC is creating a table we will discuss next tuesday 16:50:10 Martin: We are evaluating new incoming bugs, we are identfying A11y that are important, we need to assure the author and follow up with them 16:50:46 Martin: A11y keyboard issues ... 16:51:10 Zakim, unmute me 16:51:10 MikeSmith should no longer be muted 16:51:38 PC: So the bug triage team complete by January?
