We then offer a specific change proposal 15:39:34 Judy: We have a confirmed offer to get a pre-technical review and walk through wrt. their rules of the road 15:40:02 Josue: Katie Harish-O-Shay agreed to view 15:40:35 s/Harish-O-Shay/Haritos-Shea/ 15:41:06 q+ 15:41:07 Janina: I just wanted to underscore that in making their decisions you don't need table summary as there are newer alternatives. We just need to target where it won't work and why we need to keep it 15:41:22 Janina: We need examples and appropriate good use. 15:41:43 Joshue: It is a chicken and egg. Finding use cases in the wild is tough. 15:42:00 Janina: Katie started finding in the wild use cases 15:42:07 Joshue: OK 15:43:07 Josue: the examples are in the spec. but they are not that good. Adding a simple summary would have improved the spec. itself. 15:43:17 Janina: that is a nice example 15:43:55 Joshue: if you give it focus the AT has no features for processing that ... 15:44:14 Judy: While it is obvious to you it is not obvious to some others 15:44:27 Joshue: I can do that 15:44:31 JF has joined #text 15:44:45 Leonie: If you want a pair of hands to help give me a shout 15:44:59 Joshue: any real world examples you have would be a help 15:45:26 Judy: Janina: the stuff Katie was doing ...

We don't have arguments where we have already prevailed 15:53:56 Joshue: I think has been an example of culling the attribute 15:54:07 Judy: we need to rebut with a compelling argument 15:54:58 +Q 15:54:59 Judy: time lag is a problem 15:55:42 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2011Apr/0091.html 15:55:48 Judy: if it is in their decision we must address it here 15:56:06 Judy: this table summary proposal needs to address everything in there 15:56:33 John: one of the things we had with longdesc is the whole discoverability 15:56:50 ack ja 15:56:52 John: This would only be discoverable by screen readers as Rich pointed out. 15:56:54 ack ljw 15:56:57 ack jf 15:57:07 John: that was one of the stronger point that we have 15:57:20 q+ 15:57:54 Judy: what is this additional info 15:58:08 Judy: we have to reiterate our arguments every time 15:59:09 Joshue: I may need help with the formatting 15:59:30 Judy: Janina, you will be taking a look format wise? 16:00:45 Judy: we should try to have something for next Monday's call with a final submittal for 2 weeks 16:01:40 Judy, we should be focusing our attention on the reopen request. 16:02:02 Judy: It may be onerous to both at the same time 16:02:29 -Joshue 16:02:30 Joshue: I need to run and I know what I need to do 16:02:45 bye y'all I'll start this work asap 16:02:46 Judy: that was agenda item 2 16:02:47 q+ 16:04:34 janina: we have the hidden metadat red herring and the aria-describedy discussion 16:04:41 +Q 16:04:52 ack ja 16:04:53 judy: I would like to see a piece written on each 16:04:56 q+ 16:05:19 Stevef: I need to leave soon but I wanted to say I have done some work on the meta generator 16:05:25 zakim, ack stevef 16:05:25 I see JF, judy on the speaker queue 16:05:40 Judy: Why don't we put that aside and take up the metagenerator 16:05:52 SteveF: I was to collaborate with John but have not yet 16:06:07 SteveF: I started on a change proposal 16:06:24 http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposal/meta_name%3Dgenerator_does_not_make_missing_alt_conforming 16:06:27 s/discussion/discussion; both are red herrings; perhaps we should ask the chairs to issue decisions on each since they are large parts of many of our issues/ 16:06:40 SteveF: I started to write a rational with new arguments 16:06:58 Topic: Meta generator 16:07:30 SteveF: When I started to look into it it says you are using an authoring tool. None of the pages are actually just using an authoring tool 16:08:04 SteveF: In most cases you don't wanted it to forced into conforming content. I think there are reasonably strong arguments against meta generator 16:08:24 SteveF: At this point we need to feed back into what you have here 16:08:44 John: At this point we need to feed back into what you have here 16:09:10 John: Mike Smith said this seemed like an unintended consequence 16:09:20 John: the meta tag has adverse consequences 16:09:27 SteveF: I will continue working on it 16:09:37 SteveF: I will move things out to another page 16:09:51 John: I will find some time this week 16:10:20 SteveF: I have been doing on my own.
