<trackbot> Meeting: HTML Accessibility Task Force Teleconference

<trackbot> Date: 10 May 2012

<janina> scribe: janina

issue 204 discussion + possible TF resolution

Thanks, John!

<JF> scribe: JF

Janina: status update - Text subteam review the new changes and agree that they ere good changes

PF reviewed yeteday and voted a resolution to support

have put out an advanced 48 hour consensus call with a deadline of Friday midnight Boston

have one objection to date from Ben H-L reiterating his concerns

Laura, after initial concerns, seems to feel that these are improvements - she had concerns over V2 and V3 tracking

based on progress on other issues, the chairs asked if we could try for amicable resolution of Issue 204 at the F2F last week

it became obvious to remove restrictions on future development was a no-brainer, and the new V3 now has stronger conformance language, which was a win in our eyes as well

JF: any other changes were grammatical in nature

MS: what we should try for today is to seek a TF resolution today, are we ready to do so now?

JS: unless there are further questions or comments

MS: will make the proposal now

<MikeSmith> proposed RESOLUTION: TF supports the CP at http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/Correct_Hidden_Attribute_Section_v3 as written

+1

<janina> +1

MS: are there any objections to this?

<MikeSmith> anybody on IRC who objects to that resolution?

RESOLUTION: TF supports the CP at http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/Correct_Hidden_Attribute_Section_v3 as written

<Stevef> +1

<JF> JS: thankful for the great discussion last week, this was a great consensus building exercise

Media Accessibility User Requirements, annotations/pointers to spec

<JF> scribe: JF

JS: have been meaning to surface this for some time

would like to move the user requirements from a Draft note

thought it might be useful to annotate this in the HTML5 spec to link technologies to techniques (etc.)

Silvia offered to do this and felt it would be easy to do

so, do we want to take that document in that direction?

PF thought this was a good idea on their call yesterday

should we pursue?

(JF says +1)

SF: Is this annotating the HTML5 spec or the User Reqs document?

JS: the user reqs doc

MS: question seems does anyone thing this is a good idea. If Silvia has offered to do this, and it has no direct changes to HTML5 spec, then are there objections?
... seems like a useful bit of work
... guessing that Silvia wanted to ensure that others saw the value, and agreed before she undertook the effort

JF: +1 for Silvia improving things - with thanks

<Stevef> +1 for Silvia improving things - with thanks

JS: I will discuss this with Silvia - worth noting that the media team are re-convening on short notice - actually meeting later today

status updates on issues agreed from the F2F or otherwise in process

JS: looking to come to grips with Issue 194 - but will discuss this with Silvia then

<janina> scribe: janina

Thanks, John!

ms: Good in person participation from the TF at the F2F
... Good canvas discussion and agreement
... With Ted and Frank -- melding their two proposals

rs: I'm starting on that
... Elipses included in Ted's proposal, but perhaps for html.next

judy: Should we ask Paul's help pinging for Frank's active participation here as we're on a tight timeframe?

paul: If Rich sends a note cc'ing me, I'll make sure there's a response.

rs: Pointing out that I'm on holliday late next week and want to get as much of this done before that as possible

<MikeSmith> minutes from HTML WG 03 May 2012 f2f meeting

paul: Just so everyone knows, Microsoft is currently trying to get Windows 8 out the door, and this takes people's attention

rich: Just want to make sure that we all agree that elipses

<Judy> judy: Rich cc me too, on your response request

rich is not to be included at this time

janina: apologizing that I can't spell!

paul: pointing out no agreement yet to add the shape for hit testing

rich: correct

paul: so need to make this more visible

cyns: please also cc me

paul: at some point we need this visible--to the list

rich: believe we resolve first with ted and frank

<Stevef> email with questions sent last week to HTML WG - no response http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2012May/0008.html

sf: question of focus

rich: need to see how, don't have the answer yet
... we also need a way to map lightweight objects to a11y apis -- discuss that in the uaig
... it's all achievable, but will take some time

subteam reports

ms: text?

judy: in addition to 204 above we talked about alt--alts on images in the spec, and buggy alt guidance in the spec
... we're evolving our documentation of these
... also issue-31c meta generator exemption
... now a comprehensive reopen request cp forwarded to chairs last week
... we're expecting feedback or a reopen from the h5ccs

<Zakim> JF, you wanted to update on media sub-team

jf: Noting that I194 has a foot in each camp, want to add good discussion on i194 at the F2F
... And, it's the basis of us resuming media telecons
... Silvia is working up another proposal, a new h5 element transcript
... Meanwhile, I'm under the gun to put out a i194 proposal by Friday

paul: where's the dialog on this?

jf: On the TF list

<JF> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposal/Issue194_SP

janina: our concern is that i194 not expire in the wg while direct discussion on approaches is active

jf: exactly, we need some lattitude from the chairs

paul: I see Silvia's CP pointer ... looking at the thread
... can you summarize where we are?

jf: at the f2f we agreed i would rewrite my cp to propose using track, and ted to propose idref
... now we have this additional approach from silvia

janina: I'm concerned that we really should consider these proposals from the perspective of user experience
... a single way to get whichever alternate media

paul: noting that this is all post the due date for cps

sf: wanted an update on hgroup?

paul: reviewed all 5 proposals and will be sending reviews shortly
