We are auditing the pages - but we are using three ways =of chosing teh pages we test. It is all about the choosing. Random alone would be useless 15:24:21 zakim, mute me 15:24:21 vivienne should now be muted 15:24:21 ack me 15:24:23 Viviene: Possible misunderstanding 15:24:25 q? 15:24:43 Eric: We seem to agree that the three sample types are good 15:26:33 q? 15:26:49 zakim, mute me 15:26:49 Shadi should now be muted 15:26:58 Shadi: I think it is a matter of explaining it better. Thinks that Mike thinks we suggest using random to fill up number - this is not the case so our text needs clarifying 15:28:00 I think I prefer pages 15:28:03 q+ 15:28:08 Eric: Resources- Confusion between resources and pages. Sometimes we call a page a resource, other times we say a page contains resources. Any thoughts? 15:28:12 q+ 15:28:31 I#d use pages, states of pages, elements 15:28:32 ack me 15:28:39 I think a page can include some resources 15:28:52 [[A structured sequence of resources (of any type), for example an RDF sequence]] 15:29:06 Eric.

Eric has suggested "elements" as bits within a page . Prefer Pages and elements. If we use "resource" it needs careful definition 15:31:35 Eric: I will make some changes to see how it work. We can put resources back if we need to 15:31:54 That was Kathy who said that, not "Viviens" 15:32:00 Shadi:We can put a small clarification of web-page 15:32:03 zakim - mute me 15:32:07 q? 15:32:12 s/Viviens/Kathy 15:32:36 q- mike 15:32:41 zakim, take up next 15:32:41 agendum 3. "Evaluation clause 5" taken up [from shadi] 15:32:45 Eric: Clause 5 - Evaluation - three levels 15:34:27 +q 15:34:37 Eric: Cut into 1) Order, 2) Criterea - I added stuff here with a seperate section about stop critera - this is for discussion. 15:35:21 Eric: we have to allow for when a series of pages present nothing new - ie we can go somehwre else 15:35:33 q+ 15:36:15 Eric:What do you think of stop criterea? 4.3 ? 15:36:18 ack me 15:36:20 q? 15:36:24 +Tim_Boland 15:38:03 Detlev: Not sure I understand what they are. From aconformance point of view just 1 fail might be OK - but it is important to check if the error is truly accross the whole site or just those in one section 15:38:10 q+ 15:38:47 Zakim, mute me 15:38:47 Detlev should now be muted 15:38:49 Detlev: This would make it esier for corrections if user knows which areas need attention and which do not 15:38:57 q+ 15:39:36 ack me 15:39:40 Eric: Compare Global and regional errors- perhaps part of this discussion 15:40:11 q? 15:41:33 Kathy: We mention point of severity. If an error prevent complete use then everything fails : after evaluating just one page by silverlight it was clear that the whole thing was not accessible - so it was pointless doing four more pages 15:41:52 I'd be more comfortable having fewer pages checked fully... 15:42:19 Eric: We have to decide if it is global or regional. 15:42:38 zakim, unmute me 15:42:38 Kerstin should no longer be muted 15:42:47 Kathy: If it becomes absolutely clear that it can't be evaluated then I stop 15:42:50 zakim, mute me 15:42:55 Kathy should now be muted 15:44:17 Kerstin: I don't like "scores". We can check individual items. When I have cheked 3 or 4 tables I make a list and give a note and tell client he needs to check all other instances. 15:44:44 zakim, mute me 15:44:44 Kerstin should now be muted 15:45:01 ack me 15:45:03 I don't believe in "scores" ;-) 15:45:10 Eric: It must be possible to say "this is always wrong". - but impact of some regional areas can be serious 15:45:48 q+ 15:46:57 Re-checking is much quicker than the first check! 15:47:20 zakim, unmute me 15:47:20 Kerstin should no longer be muted 15:47:21 Viviene: I just copy comment each time so it is not a lot of hard work. But I agree that we can tell user that many pages have same error and expect user to check all other occurancies. But if you use a score and want accurate statisticsthen you have to check and comment on every page 15:47:23 zakim, mute me 15:47:23 vivienne should now be muted 15:48:10 zakim, mute me 15:48:10 Kerstin should now be muted 15:48:27 Kerstin: For me Pass/Fail is enough. But for objectivity perhaps we need more 15:48:40 yes. 15:48:49 yes 15:48:49 ack me 15:49:10 Eric: Many of you do evaluations for real. Some of you take all pages individually 15:49:36 don't know why I'm on the speaker queue, don't want to say something 15:49:48 same 15:49:51 zakim, mute me 15:49:51 vivienne should now be muted 15:49:54 yes 15:50:01 ack me 15:50:03 Viviene: Yes I score every page. I give score points to each error and can total at the end 15:50:19 Kathy: I also look at all teh check points 15:50:34 Q+ 15:50:47 I do the same as Kathy when I am working for clients 15:50:55 zakim, mute me 15:50:55 Kathy should now be muted 15:50:57 zakim, unmute me 15:50:57 Kerstin should no longer be muted 15:51:10 q- ker 15:51:15 ack richard 15:52:28 q+ 15:53:24 q+ 15:53:31 zakim, mute me 15:53:31 Kerstin should now be muted 15:53:42 ack me 15:54:43 q+ 15:55:35 Richard:I check is sequence.

For a task based site s=do as Richard by following tasks using different technologies, I also agree with Detlev taht we must have a checklist 15:58:21 ack me 15:58:28 zakim, mute me 15:58:28 Kathy should now be muted 15:59:47 zakim, mute me 15:59:54 vivienne should now be muted 15:59:54 Viviene:Diferent types of page need different methods. You need to actially use the technoogy - such as screen reader or keyboard etc. You still follow structure to make sure you don't miss anything 16:00:14 Eric: We need to cover - Stop Criterea, 16:00:57 Eric, are we able to share the draft with others to get their viewpoint? 16:01:05 IEric: Please walk throgh the changes I made and discuss also on scoring.
