16:20:25 Maciej: Could someone give a brief summary of the discussion?
16:20:39 Sam: I have excerpts ready and can comment on them.
16:20:46 Maciej: Sounds like a good plan.
16:20:50 (11:24:43 AM) Stevef: i agree with mike that we should try to reach consensus without formal objection
16:20:50 +1
16:21:10 (11:35:28 AM) MichaelC: propose we say something like "in the future, user agents my have the ability to expose semantics of hidden descriptions" and encourage providing those semantics
16:21:10 Please post suggestioned rewording into the bug report(s) themselves. If we converge to a small number of stable proposals quickly, I would support reopening issue 204 and proceeding directly to survey on those proposals.
16:21:53 q?
16:22:14 Sam: If we can get the proposals out maybe re-opening the issue and going to survey on a small number of proposals.
16:22:40 -darobin
16:22:40 Janina: I don't think we are that stage.

16:24:33 Philippe: Rich was reporting on the TF that he was talking to James. It would be useful for James and Rich to be in sync.
16:24:47 Ted: I agree and we continue to work the issue.
16:24:50 q?
16:24:52 s/and Rich/and Ted/
16:24:57 (11:38:58 AM) MichaelC: it would be OK for HTML to have an attribute to solve this problem
16:24:57 ... perhaps "LongdescZeroEdit" could be be updated to advocate a new "describedby" (sans "aria-") attribute?
16:25:37 Sam: someone proposed a specific HTML attribute
16:25:45 Janina: I suggested this in the TF meeting.
16:26:47 Janina: Second proposal PF would be willing to mint a ARIA 1.1 (post ARIA 1.0) attribute for this functionality.

16:32:54 q-
16:33:02 Maciej: Is there a draft available of the ARIA,Next requirements?
16:33:18 Janina: There are tracker items but no actual document.
16:33:27 (11:42:40 AM) MichaelC: plh: it's clear that people here don't want to remove ARIA from HTML
16:33:27 Agreed. The harder question is: can we get people who actively want to make ARIA in HTML to work to provide proposals that they can live with? Not providing a proposal and objecting to all is not a path forward. I'm pleased to see that people have resumed providing suggestions in the form of comments on the existing bugs.
16:33:32 RRSAgent, make minutes

16:34:22 s/There is discussiona about ARIA 1.1 ideas and some longer term features./ARIA 2.0 requirements discussion has also identified potential nearer-term ARIA 1.1 features.//
16:34:56 Judy: In terms of where the discussion happens on ISSUE-204 soltuion, that is part of the Formal Objection.
16:35:34 Judy: The discussion needs to be happening in close cooperations with the WAI TF.
16:35:51 q?
16:35:57 q+
16:36:03 Sam: Not a problem but the conclusions from any WAI TF discussions they should coome back to the HTML WG
16:36:30 Philippe: Could some one give a ptr to the WAI PF Tracker?
16:36:32 q+
16:37:11 Judy: It would be clearer in a few weeks since they are working on the Tracker items.
16:37:24 ack next
16:37:26 Judy: PF is interested in HTML WG feedback.
16:37:42 janina: I don't have the URI available.
16:38:09 s/working on the Tracker items/working on separating out ARIA 1.1 and ARIA 2.0; and my understanding is that PFWG will be interested in feedback and input on the 1.1 list.
16:38:18 Janina: The idea of the ARIA 1.1 items is to handle items quickly and to handle items related to HTML discussion.
16:38:35 Judy: This might be available in 3-4 weeks.
16:39:18 Judy: I was on the queue to point the problems with pulling out ARIA from HTML5.
16:39:32 Judy: There is on list and off list discussion.
16:39:43 q+
16:39:48 ack Judy
16:40:10 Judy: People are reacting to the proposal.
16:40:31 Sam: But now people are actually discussing the technical matters in ISSUE-204
16:41:31 Judy: The FO contains both technical and procedural objections.
16:41:45 Judy: Solving only the technical problems may not be enough.
16:42:01 Judy: The technical discussion need to happen on the ARIA TF.
16:42:10 I just want to note for the record in the minutes that Judy said it's not her or Janina's preferred outcome to make progress on resolving the Formal Objection
16:42:44 Janina: The procedural issues are not about ARIA. 149 without problems and 1 with problems.
16:43:03 s/Judy: This might be available in 3-4 weeks./Janina: This might be available in 3-4 weeks./
16:43:17 Janina: There has not been a proble overwhelmingly but there is one that is a problem.
16:43:33 Sam: Janina: The other 149 were done correctly?
16:43:59 Judy: I think Janina is saying that the outcome was okay.
16:44:25 Judy: What is the agenda item?
16:44:36 Sam: Issue-30 is the agenda item.
16:44:58 Sam: It is appropriate to discuss the Formal objection since it is blocking ISSUE-30.
16:45:12 ack next
16:45:17 fww, I agree with Sam that that the discussion here has been useful
16:45:43 jb: it sounds are though you are actually discussing the FO itself, which is both procedural and technical, and which I don't think is appropriate to discuss here.
16:46:10 ...this is not to say that technical progress is not useful, but that this is not the full context of the FO.
16:46:43
