13:00:36 <Sharron> Topic: WCAG-EM Working Draft
13:00:54 <Bim> ack me
13:01:03 <Sharron> Shawn: My understanding is that Wayne sent comments in email. Is there anything else that I have not seen?
13:02:34 <Sharron> Bim: It is very well organized. Wanted to comment on the mis-use of definition list. I don't like one item lists generally, but in this case a one item definition list creates page noise.
13:02:43 <Sharron> Shawn: Can we add that to the wiki
13:03:34 <Sharron> ...Wayne, I have not had a chnace to review your comment. Should we look at it now or next week.
13:04:30 <Sharron> Wayne: Sure why not now. One table is a flow chart that is described in terms of visual geography. I tried to re-word in more accessible terms.

13:04:49 <shawn> wayne's comments: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-eo/2013JanMar/0056.html
13:05:39 <Andrew> Wayne refers to diagram at http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG-EM/#procedure
13:06:19 <Sharron> Suzette: What Wayne described bothered me as well. I thought about a long description but I think what Wayne has done is quite good.
13:06:46 <Sharron> Wayne: It also was incorrect as well as inaccessible, so I tried to make it more clear and more accurate.
13:06:59 <paulschantz> I agree with Wayne...good comment
13:07:49 <Sharron> ...I tried to explain the problem with templates in the second comment. Where they talk about users, they need a subgroup to work on that because they are talking about a different group than we identified in the Overview.
13:08:14 <Sharron> ...need a group of people working on this for a few hours to refine and hone in on who the users actually are.
13:08:29 <shawn> EOWG particularly focus on http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG-EM/#audience
13:08:40 <Sharron> Shawn: Thanks Wayne, we should probably focus on the audience here as an EO project
13:09:06 <Sharron> Wayne: Last few sections, other than those comments, seem really clean. Nice work.
13:09:38 <Sharron> Sharron: Sorry, it will be next week for me
13:10:31 <Sharron> Shawn: The comments are due next week, so if those who are doing the review could get comments to the wiki by Wednesday, flag the things you believe need discussion.
13:12:00 <shawn> Topic: Easy Checks
13:12:06 <shawn> draft: http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/eval/checks
13:12:18 <shawn> wiki: http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/wiki/Easy_Checks
13:13:01 <Sharron> Wayne: Need to change the terms for Color/Contrast. It is a mistake. Maybe make a note that it used to be called color contrast, but it is not scientifically correct. Luminousity, the difference between light and dark is the actual issue.
13:13:08 <LiamM> ack me
13:14:05 <Sharron> Shawn: Michael Lenz (?) former EO member made a comment
13:14:08 <shawn> Having clear and simple language that coveys the intent and purpose is important. While technically accurate to the layman that is a nuance that is lost.
13:14:08 <shawn> It also would mean that search engines would not guide people to our resources given the lack of queries for Luminosity Contrast.
13:16:53 <LiamM> q+ to note that 'color contrast' is short and sweet (if misspelled)
13:16:59 <Sharron> Howard: I agree with this. You want people to be able to find it. You want people to know what it is about from the heading.
13:17:16 <Sharron> ...while it may not be precisely accurate, you have a danger of confusing people.
13:17:52 <shawn> ack l
13:17:52 <Zakim> LiamM, you wanted to note that 'color contrast' is short and sweet (if misspelled)
13:18:07 <Sharron> Wayne: Here is my problem with that. There are tools that are giving bad results becasue of the term color contrast. You will get inaccessible confirmation. You are directing people to do the wrong thing.
13:18:38 <Sharron> Liam: But in this document don't we want to sacrifice accuracy for clarity of communication.
13:18:39 <Bim> ack me
13:19:22 <Sharron> Shawn: What if we do some expolanation within the body of the paragraph. Find a good place to point to explain further.
13:19:48 <Sharron> Wayne: I just have a problem putting into an official document something that is in fact, just wrong.
13:20:00 <AnnaBelle> q+
13:20:48 <shawn> q+ to brainstorm putting it in quotes of parenthesis
13:20:59 <Sharron> ...seems we would want to be sure that as part of our educatinal purpose we would want to start at some point changing the understanding of this uissue. Rather than perpetuationg something that we got wrong the first time around. If not now, when will we change the understanding to something that is actually true.

13:22:45 <Zakim> shawn, you wanted to brainstorm putting it in quotes of parenthesis
13:22:56 <Sharron> AnnaBelle: For me, I would prefer using luminousity or simple saying contrast. I am one of those who thought it was color contrast. it is patronizing to someone like me who has understood it in one way in the past. I would appreciate having a correct understanding.
13:23:17 <Bim> q+
13:23:28 <shawn> ack b
13:23:36 <Sharron> Shawn: What about finding a brifge from the term people recgnize to a more accurate one?

13:24:17 <Andrew> what about 'text contrast' or 'contrast in/with text'
13:24:27 <Sharron> Bim: I agree with Wayne's educational perspective but also understand the need to use familiar terms.
13:25:04 <Sinarmaya_> what about "luminosity color contrast"?
13:25:07 <Sharron> ...If we put color in quotes "color" contrast and explain that it is in fact a measurement of light and dark, not color.

13:31:18 <Sharron> Andrew: Under the section Page Title, made comments and thinking about how to avoid clutter. Might be more appropriate to make sure we know what version is being illustrated. I could not replicate.
13:31:46 <Sharron> Shawn: So should we provide more information about browser and version in image title or alt?
13:32:13 <Bim> +1

13:34:31 <Sharron> Bim: if there is just one illustratin, just make the point that the experience may be different in other browsers, other versions.
13:34:43 <Sharron> Shawn: There are several different ones.
13:35:15 <Sharron> Bim: Then it will probably be better to know the difference.
13:35:27 <Sharron> Shawn: How is that good for screen reader users?
13:35:41 <Andrew> people discusses approaches - need to know
13:35:55 <Sharron> Bim: Only that they will know there is a reason for these many illustrations and not just a glitch of re-reading the same graphic.

13:37:09 <paulschantz> browser versions change all the time, do we expect to update sample images in easy checks on a periodic basis?
13:37:41 <Sharron> RESOLUTION: For images within Page Title section, we will put browser, version in image title
13:37:42 <Andrew> no - so we need to tell them what version we illustrated

13:38:54 <Andrew> q+ to mention visual screen readers users discuss testing with visual users
13:39:06 <Sharron> ...don't we want to keep noise to a minimum?
13:39:50 <shawn> ack a
13:39:50 <Zakim> Andrew, you wanted to mention visual screen readers users discuss testing with visual users
13:39:52 <Sharron> Paul: When you ahve images here, we may not want to refer to specific versions. They update weekly sometimes and we will not be current unless we change illustrations often.
13:41:19 <Sharron> Andrew: That is just why. So screen reader users know that this may not be their exact experience. it comes back to comments about how much info people want. It should be a matter of choice.
13:41:31 <Sharron> Shawn: Strong opinions?
13:41:40 <LiamM> ok

13:42:53 <Sharron> Shawn: Suzette, want to talk about your point?
13:43:51 <Sharron> Suzette: In the examples, showing how the company name may come first or the specific page come first. We recommend the specific first as a best practice, but we do not do that.
13:43:59 <LiamM> ack me
13:43:59 <Sharron> ...the examples don't match.
13:44:27 <Sharron> Shawn: It is becasue the visual example is just the Home Page. We would need another part of the site to have a matching visual example.
13:44:52 <Sharron> Suzette: They need to do the same thing.It is confusing otherwise.

13:50:42 <Sharron> Howard: As a first time user, I thought that with the sections collapsed, it was easy to miss the introductory information which is important. It was unclear.
13:51:19 <Sharron> Shawn: On the draft page, the collapsed section is Using this page. What if it was changed to Using Easy Checks
13:51:32 <shawn> proposal: change "Using this page" to "Using Easy Checks" or "Usaing the Easy Checks"
13:51:48 <Sharron> ...any objections?
13:51:57 <Sharron> Annabelle: Like it
13:52:34 <Sharron> Howard: Next point was that it is easy to miss the section. Perhaps it should be open by default.
13:53:18 <Sharron> ...when I saw the down arrows next to the section I expected that section to expand rather than an indication that you will be moved further into the docuemnt.
13:54:03 <Sinarmaya__> Agree with Howard!
13:54:20 <Sharron> ACTION: Shawn to ask Shadi if we can have only one section expanded by default.

13:58:58 <Sharron> ...at the W3C?
13:59:50 <Sharron> Shawn: We don't have a strict style. We do have some strict guidelines. I am happy to address those on case-by-case basis. You have a pending comment along those lines. I
14:00:18 <Sharron> ...can we take that offline. If you put it in the wiki, it won't get lost in the email.
14:00:44 <Sharron> Paul: was thinking the exact same thing re: style
14:00:48 <LiamM> ack me
14:01:41 <Sharron> Liam: No comments but have used the Easy Checks to run some tests last week. It does quickly and painlessly catch some of the larger issues. Thought it was generally very good. Well don us!
14:02:13 <Sharron> ...needed the most work around form labels. Understanding why it is broken and how to fix it is a bit of a challenge.
14:02:29 <Sharron> ..especially when those are using MVC
14:03:27 <Sharron> Shawn: Great to hear. Out of curiousity, how long did it take you to run these?
14:03:43 <Sharron> Liam: it was a morning and I was chacking quite a few pages.
14:04:07 <Sharron> Shawn: At some point it would be good to see what does it take to run these checks on one page?
14:04:15 <LiamM> zakim, please mute me
14:04:15 <Zakim> LiamM should now be muted
14:04:25 <Sharron> Liam: Under an hour but certainly more than 5 or 10 minutes.
14:04:46 <Sharron> Topic: Check-in on work in progress
14:05:33 <Sharron> Shawn: Last week we talked about charter scope and deliverables. Current charter is up in June. As we renew, we spoke about education, integrating accessiiblity into courses
14:06:14 <paulschantz> ack me
14:06:20 <Sharron> ...what do we want to fit in the next twenty-five minutes? What aspect of that high level description should we discuss today?
14:06:42 <Sharron> ...Howard, we have a wiki page "Promoting Accessiiblity in Courses" we have rough notes
14:07:42 <Sharron> ...we have WCAG-EM work, Easy Checks, Big Picture charter discussion, education discussion.
14:08:04 <Sharron> ..should we talk about Big Picture charter scope or just wrap up current work and then discuss?
14:09:01 <Sharron> Sharron: Big Picture thinking can start now to be most effective. since it will start the momentum for the next severl years.
14:09:07 <Sharron> Paul: there's a huge push for "moocs" and online learning with tablets, at least at CSUN.  promotion of accessibility in authoring course materials should be a priority imo
14:09:16 <shawn> Massive Open Online Courses
14:10:07 <Sharron> Howard: I was going to say that I agree with Paul and think we should be pushing inclusion of accessiiblity in course work. I could work on it and use as a grant activity.
14:10:16 <shawn> http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/wiki/Promoting_Accessibility_in_Courses
14:11:42 <Sharron> Shawn: In the wiki are "brain dump" level ideas and thought about direction and brainstorms. Can make a snapshot of the page today for archives and then you can pull from and organize it.
14:12:14 <Sharron> ...can take this and step up, address the bigger picture issues, who is our audience, how might we reach tehm, what resources and massages will we offer, etc.
14:12:35 <Sharron> ...would you like to jump in here? shall we have another discussion about next steps?
14:13:05 <Sharron> Howard: maybe we could follow up and set a most useful direction.
14:13:59 <Sharron> ...there will be a track of sessions in November at Accessing Higher Ground on Universal Design in university course. RFP announcement is up.
14:14:19 <Sharron> Shawn: Please send conference info to WAI-IG list
14:15:04 <Sharron> ...we can follow up on specifics and next steps on courses
14:15:06 <Sinarmaya__> The Sidar Conference this year will be about higher education too. Will be in november in Portugal ;-)
14:15:14 <Sharron> Topic: Charter and Big Picture Focus
14:15:36 <Sharron> Shawn: Had talked generally about training and education being a focus. What might that look like for our work?
14:16:11 <Sharron> ...remember that what Bim is working on - the Application Notes - may turn out to be more like tutorials.
14:16:43 <shawn> Sharron: Easy checks is good model of practical
14:17:00 <shawn> ... think about tools for specific rooles
14:17:15 <shawn> tolls = practical guidance (rather than high level conceptual)
14:17:32 <shawn> s/ tolls = p/ tools = p/
14:17:41 <shawn> s/tolls = p/tools = p/
14:18:23 <shawn> ... agree integrated in training. this would help in the meantime for people already out there
14:18:54 <Sharron> Paul: The easy Checks is a practical. I have seen at least a half dozen versions of something like that. It is great to have a master version at the W3C
14:19:33 <Sharron> ...since product specific tools are being pushed by vendors, it is a challenge. But the provision of neutral and practical tools and examples is valuable.
14:20:44 <Sharron> Howard: Develop modules for courses (may be beyond scope). Some of what is in the Training Resource Suite could be integrated. perhaps modules that can easily be placed within existing curriculum.
14:21:28 <Sharron> ...there was talk of the professional association being promoted by ATIA and the certification idea. training reuirements for that certification. Could cehck in with
14:21:42 <Sharron> ..them to see if they ahve needs we could address through this work
14:22:41 <Bim> ack me
14:22:52 <Sharron> Shawn: And must of course think abut what is reasonable to accomplish with volunteers. Review needed resources and where is the overlap between ongoing research, grant funded projects, and W3C interests.
14:23:50 <Sharron> Bim: Certification solutions are fne but I think we all agree that integration into existing courses rather than a separate discipline.
14:24:07 <Sharron> ...would be preferable. Can we push for that?
14:24:08 <Bim> zakim, mute me
14:24:08 <Zakim> Bim should now be muted
14:24:27 <shawn> ACM
14:25:02 <Sharron> Shawn: Wayne identified the CS curriculum of ACM Assoc of Computing Machinery has curriculm. Need to explore options for integration of accessibility into their work.
14:25:43 <Sharron> ...are there other things we should focus on for the next three years?
14:26:03 <Sharron> ...we have practical tools and guidance, university curriculum. other focus areas?
14:26:37 <shawn> q+ to wishlist videos
14:27:11 <shawn> Sharron: outreach. engage through WAI-Engage. lots of momentum ...
14:27:22 <shawn> ... there is energy
14:28:07 <shawn> ... our community wants to have large influence ...
14:28:30 <shawn> how to bring that together?
14:28:57 <Sharron> Howard: How about a MOOC on Accessibility?
14:28:58 <shawn> ack me
14:28:58 <Zakim> shawn, you wanted to wishlist videos
14:29:33 <shawn> ack h
14:29:33 <Zakim> Howard, you wanted to MOOC on accessibility
14:29:47 <Zakim> -AnnaBelle
14:30:02 <Sharron> ...and like the video resource development idea as well.
14:30:20 <Andrew> q+ to mention dispelling ivory tower notion
14:30:45 <shawn> ack a
14:30:45 <Zakim> Andrew, you wanted to mention dispelling ivory tower notion
14:30:51 <Zakim> -paulschantz
14:30:52 <Sharron> Shawn: It would be interesting to see what is already there. We talked about different online courses. Web Standards Group did a course, now outdated.
14:31:35 <Sharron> Andrew: One of the excercises you did about what do you think of when you consider....different aspects of WAI. How can we dispell some of the negative aspects?
