<lwatson> http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=14906 Bug 14906
EZ: New bug: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=14906
... I can see the use case for being able to hover dragged
content over an element to activate it
HH: Currently ARIA doesn't have a way to indicate hover actions, just drop targets
EZ: Neither ARIA or HTML5 define
this behavior in the spec
... It's probably something that the task force should
track
... I will add the a11ytf keyword
... This feature would have to be added to the spec, before we
can start making it accessible
EZ: I scanned to the list and
identified 3 drag and drop related items
... With all of these bugs, the editors pushed back that the
spec is not meant to define drag and drop, but a mechanism that
makes it possible
... But a lot of language regarding drag and drop is mouse
centric, and alternative, accessible methods need to be
described
... I've added some posts about this to the public-html-a11y
list to discuss this, but so far there are no responses.
HH: Evertt's message can be found here: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2011Nov/0155.html
EZ: ALl three of these bugs
basically ask the question: "can drag and drop be performed
without a mouse?"
... So two of these bugs can be closed
LW: How do we close bugs?
MC: We can move bugs to 'verified', then someone from the working group can close it
EZ: Do we close the oldest or the newest?
MC: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8800
seems to be the core one, the others depend on it
... So 8800 is the one that should stay open and be commented
on
EZ: I'll give it one more week to let people on the mailing list respond, if they don't I'll comment to the bug directly
LW: We'll check up on this next
week
... Marc, did you find any new bugs?
MR: No
LW: We can probably close this
LW: So far I've only gotten a
response from the media sub group
... We're at a bit of a standstill
