15:11:22 JB: Focus is on 204, and the fact there are issues that need to be cleared before we can focus on 30.
15:12:40 JB: I'll be writing a request to extend the August deadline for the issue 30 proposals.
15:13:27 JB: My understanding is that there may be a formal objection to issue 204.
15:13:51 JF: I've filed a formal objection.
15:14:37 q?
15:15:41 RS: I haven't checked the current decision, but the lack of accessibility knowledge amongst the chairs continues to be a problem.
15:16:14 JB: It's something W3C management is becoming increasingly aware of.

15:17:10 RS: Will we discuss this decision on Monday's call?
15:17:25 JS: Yes.
15:18:19 RS: I met with advocacy groups within the Australian government, and there is a lot of concern about the handling of accessibility by the HTML WG.
15:18:48 JB: Feedback is always welcome.
15:19:50 JS: I'll have a draft proposal we can discuss on Monday.
15:20:03 Q?

15:24:15 -Laura_Carlson
15:25:26 zakim, take up item 3
15:25:26 agendum 3. "Issue-204 (ARIA and hidden elements), formal objection" taken up [from MikeSmith]
15:26:14 MS: John has filed a formal objection.
15:27:11 JB: The subsequent discussion is at least partially useful, for example around the implementation that doesn't exist and can't therefore be tested.
15:27:16 which implementation?
15:28:03 JB: Plus some discussion around cursor behaviour and whether it would drop into a black hole.
15:28:16 Q+
15:28:35 +Laura_Carlson
15:29:59 RS: The frustration is having 20 years of experience, and having to argue with people who have little experience of accessibility at all.
15:30:46 JB: We have a co-chair who is involved in one of the alternate proposals, which also presents an interesting situation.

15:31:50 q?
15:31:56 ack JF
15:33:32 JF: Ben HL has made the point that ARIA allows some of the behaviours we're now pushing back against. Rich, could you look at his comments?
15:34:33 RS: This is another WG working on specifications under the remit of other WGs.
15:35:12 JF: Agreed, comments on ARIA need to be raised in the right place.
15:35:34 RS: W3C has processes. If there is an issue with ARIA it can be raised as we focus on 1.1.
15:36:54 JB: There are two things. One is comments about the ARIA spec, the other is comments made about ARIA in relation to this issue.
15:38:06 JF: The process is being hijacked. Meanwhile, we need to support each other with regards to this specific issue. Charles Pritchard has contributed some valuable input, which was welcome.
15:38:44 RS: It's going to be difficult to find time to review Ben's comments.

15:44:02 agendum 4. "Issue-206 (alt exemption for generators), status" taken up [from MikeSmith]
15:45:03 MS: I'm working on a change proposal, but it may not be done this week. There are already three CPs out there.
15:46:16 MS: Would like to reach agreement with Henry, one is UI behaviour of the validator, and the other is what the name should be. We don't yet have agreement about adding an attribute, never mind its name.
15:47:18 q?
15:47:59 JS: On the HTML WG calllast week someone asked whether it was nescessary to resolve the other proposals first.
15:48:09 s/calllast/call last/
15:48:47 MS: It'll depend on the call for concensus.
15:49:34 JB: The TF actively encourages the chairs to do this, not just put it forward as an option.
15:50:34 MS: I'll make that clear on the call today.
15:51:21 Zakim, take up next item

15:56:04 I see 3 items remaining on the agenda; the next one is
15:56:05 7. Responsive images [from MikeSmith]
15:57:03 MS: The chairs have been discussing how to provide a home for the CP that came from the responsive images CG. I'll post it to space belonging to the HTML WG.
15:57:23 JS: That's HTML.Next?
15:57:30 MS: I'm unclear on that myself.
15:58:50 MS: From the conversations I've had with the chairs, there is interest in making the HTML5 spec a stable spec.
15:59:32 MS: Features without browser implementation ought to be in HTML.Next. So adding a whole new feature seems unlikely in a stable spec.
