Survey on the document title:https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/55145/NOV132012/results

RESOLUTION: Accept new title "Guidance on Applying WCAG 2.0 to Non-web Information and Communications Technologies"

Back to the additional SC for Closed Functionality, starting with 2.4.2 Page Titledhttps://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/55145/OCT112012/results

<Zakim> Bruce_Bailey, you wanted to say we need to careful about what being on the list means

<Mike_P> M376 approach: https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=sites&srcid=ZGVmYXVsdGRvbWFpbnx3Y2FnMmljdHxneDoxMzgxYmI2YzU4MmU5NzU5

1.4.5

if there are images of text, it's important that the text either be of a sufficient size or that there be some way to enlarge it

but we don't believe we can prescribe that actual text has to be used rather than images of text in closed functionality

RESOLUTION: Add 1.4.5 to the list for closed functionality with appropriate rationale

2.4.2 Page Titled

in multitasking environments, the purpose of the title is to remind the user what task he/she is doing - doesn't seem to be necessary in single task environments

<greggvanderheiden> '

this is about a document title or software title - not anything inside the document or software

where software is an integral part of a closed product that has only one funtion (calculator, IP phone), there is no need for a title

if we add to the list, need a one line explanation/rationale much as we have for the others

reminder of some of the words we have around this list ....

"Where AT cannot be used, other output and input solutions are needed to achieve the intent of these success criteria."

and "Note: While these guidelines are not suitable for closed functionality as written, they will inform and aid development of built-in accessible alternatives needed with closed functionality."

titles are not needed for any single task function environment, whether it is closed to AT or not

example of where there is a single task function - Linux based phone with a USB port - could put AT on a USB drive

RESOLUTION: Add 2.4.2 to the list for closed functionality with appropriate rationale

3.3.1 Error Identification

we need rationale with this one that makes it clear the information needs to be presented but it doesn't have to be "text" according to the WCAG 2.0 definition of text

proposal for the rationale for this one: while it's important that errors that can be detected are described in words, for closed functionality, the error doesn't have to be in text, as defined in WCAG

RESOLUTION: Add 3.3.1 to the list for closed functionality with appropriate rationale

<greggvanderheiden> https://sites.google.com/site/wcag2ict/cross-cutting-issues-and-notes/remaining-3-scs

last three SC - guidance on software

it's tricky to say there are no examples of "set of software" unless we define it

<Zakim> Bruce_Bailey, you wanted to double check that we cannot say “webpage in a set of webpages” should be interpreted as “software”?

<greggvanderheiden> https://sites.google.com/site/wcag2ict/cross-cutting-issues-and-notes/remaining-3-scs

WCAG co-chairs agree that we can't interpret "web page within a set of web pages" as "software"

intent of these SC is that they apply to a set of things - we can apply within software as long as we can define what the "things" are in the set

we were unable to come up with a definition of things inside software that would make up the set

we attempted to define the "things" by defining "interaction context"

web applications are generally a single URL - if we apply this inside a non-web software product, the rules would be different for non-web and web software

for next draft, may have to say we've not yet reached consensus on guidance for SW for these three SC

<greggvanderheiden> https://sites.google.com/site/wcag2ict/cross-cutting-issues-and-notes/remaining-3-scs

<greggvanderheiden> The remaining three success criteria apply in situations when "a set of web pages", or "multiple web pages" share some characteristic or behavior. For these, the task force found that (with substitutions) the success criteria apply to non-web documents fairly straightforwardly. The task force has not yet been able to work out how these three success criteria dealing with "sets of web pages" or "multiplel " web page would apply to

<greggvanderheiden> software.

<korn> "The task force does not yet have guidance for how to apply these to software."

<korn> The task force does not yet have guidance for how to apply these three remainign success criteria to software.

<greggvanderheiden> "The task force does not yet have guidance for how to apply these three SC to software."

<greggvanderheiden> The task force does not yet have guidance for how to apply these three SC in a software context

<greggvanderheiden> The task force does not yet have guidance for how to apply these three SC in a software context

<greggvanderheiden> [10:49am]

<greggvanderheiden> The Task Force found that the majority of success criteria from WCAG 2.0 can apply to non-Web documents and software with no or only minimal changes. Specifically, of the thirty-eight Level A and AA success criteria, twenty-six did not include any web related terms and apply directly as written and as described in the "Intent" sections from the updated “Understanding WCAG 2.0”. Half of these twenty-six applied without any additional

<greggvanderheiden> notes. Half applied as written but additional notes were also provided for assist in applying them to either or both non-web documents and software.

<greggvanderheiden> Of the remaining twelve success criteria, the Task Force found that nine of them they apply as written when replacing certain web specific terms or phrases like "Web page(s)" with non-web terms or phrases like “non-web document(s) and software" or “for non-Web documents and software that use markup languages, in such a way that…etc.” Additional notes were also provided to assist in the application of these.

<greggvanderheiden> The remaining three success criteria apply in situations when "a set of web pages", or "multiple web pages" share some characteristic or behavior. For these, the task force found that (with substitutions) the success criteria apply to non-web documents fairly straightforwardly. The task force does not yet have guidance for how to apply these three success criteria in a software context
