[on Jeanne F Spellman - due 2011-06-09]. 17:29:31 +Mark_Hakkinen 17:32:43 JA: don't see that we need to specifically call out w3 specs that are implemented. this seems like a granular subset of 5.3.2. and should be written in the intent of 5.3.2 17:33:14 JS: I have a concern that we are confusing the issue by "W3C specifications designed to enhance accessibility of the content technology (e.g. WAI-ARIA)". I would rather see "implement and cite in the conformance claim how the user agent implements WAI-ARIA." But this makes WAI-ARIA a requirement of all user agents, and I am not sure if it applies to ALL user agents. 17:34:27 JR: this is where a subset of the other one. 17:34:40 GL: If we include this it should include the same two bullet items at 3.5.1 defining what are considered accessibility features. Plus they all need unique titles. 17:36:01 GL: we don't require any other specifications to be implemented, however we do say that if there are accessibility features in the OS etc then that has to be supported it therefore should be a separate SC, or a separate category and 3.5.1 17:36:17 JA: like the idea of just adding 17:36:40 GL: parallel language to 3.5.1 17:39:17 GL: I don't think what we're really trying to say comes out in the SC. 17:40:16 mhakkinen has joined #ua 17:41:25 GL: for technologies that you implement support their accessibility features, and implement accessibility technologies… wordsmithing out loud 17:42:45 GL: we need to handle the fact that in some cases there is additional technologies we want user agents to support or implement 17:43:12 JL: we could add this to 5.3.1 or if we're splitting up this we could add it separately 17:43:21 s/JL/GL 17:45:08 JA: recaps… the third point– would be the platform stuff with an example of the accessibility API…? 17:46:00 GL: stream of consciousness - wordsmithing becomes too complex to the scribe 17:46:12 s/to/for 17:48:29 There is a useful list of platform API links here: http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-IMPLEMENTING-ATAG20-20110426/#gl_a12 17:49:23 Joan A: splitting the platform from the content and then adding the third one that is parallel to the content one that says you also implement and document any complementary specs for accessibility, is that necessary? 17:49:35 s/Joan A/JA 17:49:45 JR+1 17:49:48 MH+1 17:49:52 KP+1 17:50:09 KF+1 17:50:30 JS: done we cover this in our standard section? 17:50:55 JS: do we not just need to make this clear that ARIA goes is here? 17:52:29 JR: 4.1.1 seems to be relevant in this case therefore we do not have anything about MSAA 17:53:10 GL: does that mean we can take the platform staff out of 5.3/JR I think that's right 17:53:19 s/staff/stuff 17:54:01 http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2011/ED-UAAG20-20110519/#gl-AT-access 17:56:47 JR: if you want to say something about have should talk to the platform should go up in 4.1 17:56:55 +1 17:57:27 GL: s/have/how we should/ 17:57:52 s/GL: / 17:58:49 RESOLVED: GL to take this off-line and come up with a structured solution–JR to assist 17:59:38 5.1.1 (former 1.1.1) Non-Web-Based Accessible (Level A) : 17:59:40 Non-Web-based user agent user interfaces comply with and cite the requirements of standards or operating environment conventions that benefit accessibility.

Though UA do have script error consoles and other types of debugging views, so a11y errors could be included in those. on reflection...the various developer and a11y toolbars (Wave and WAT) could meet this. I don't see this rising to the level of a must or should include in a UA to be accessible to users. 18:03:35 GL: If we include it, it'd be easier to read if the inline example were moved to the end of the sentence. Plus they all need unique titles. 18:04:26 JR: related comments - This usage of a user agent is veering into ATAG territory. I wonder if this could be handled by an informative section on how user agents can be part of the authoring process and that browser developers should look at ATAG? 18:04:49 JA: likes this 18:05:00 JS: likes this to 18:05:18 s/to/too 18:06:48 JR: in the informative section we say that user agents are often used by developers flipping between an authoring tool and a user agent and therefore you should also look at the ATAG. 18:07:01 MH: I'm in agreement with Chile are 18:07:13 s/Chile are/JR 18:07:49 Greg has joined #ua 18:07:59 RESOLVED: JR will take an action on this 18:08:47 Action: JR to create a section in the Intro explaining that user agents can be used in authoring processes and that therefore user agents developers should look at ATAG. 18:08:47 Created ACTION-567 - Create a section in the Intro explaining that user agents can be used in authoring processes and that therefore user agents developers should look at ATAG.
