15:06:01 zakim, item 3

15:06:22 +??P28
15:06:23 +Rich_Schwerdtfeger
15:06:41 JS: any thoughts we should consider before diving in and testing HTML spec
15:07:14 zakim, ??P28 is me
15:07:14 +chaals; got it
15:07:34 SteveF has joined #html-a11y
15:07:45 …recap. HTML WG walked the entire spec, outlining what needed to be tested and what could be passed, emphasis on getting out of CR. If feature was widely supported, it need not be tested.
15:07:55 …possibly a good approach for us
15:08:33 …identify features that are well supported, like ALT, there are at least two browsers that support it successfully.
15:08:57 +Cynthia_Shelly
15:09:01 …in the relatively near future, perhaps we should walk through the spec to identify things that need to be tested
15:09:17 JF: it took HTML WG a minimum of 3 hours to do that at the F2F.
15:09:24 …we would have to carve out a time to do that.
15:09:40 q+ to suggest we do the run-through in a TF (ideally triage TF IMHO...)
15:09:45 …should we try to setup two 90 minute sessions at a different time to accomplish something like this.
15:09:54 JS: we did this before and that is the approach we took.
15:10:00 …spec is long
15:10:16 …not eager to do this in the coming month, but perhaps in the next couple months.
15:10:22 q-
15:10:33 q?
15:10:35 -Rich_Schwerdtfeger
15:10:46 JS: is this not the way to proceed?
15:11:14 …no objections. will try to schedule in the coming weeks
15:11:19 zakim, take up item 2
15:11:19 agendum 2. "Table Markup Redux" taken up [from janina]
15:11:44 zakim, ??p28 is Rich
15:11:44 I already had ??P28 as chaals, chaals
15:11:54 zakim, chaals is Rich
15:11:54 +Rich; got it
15:11:55 JS: HTML markup for rowgroup does not seem to be in the spec.
15:12:16 Rich is in the house
15:12:32 RS: what happened for whatever reason is that Firefox introduced rowgroup, into the API mappings. Turns out they were doing this for thead to have a rowgroup.
15:12:40 +[IPcaller]
15:12:47 …looked at native semantics in HTML5 and it wasn't even in the list.
15:12:56 JF: was wondering about colgroup?
15:13:05 zakim, [ipcaller is me
15:13:05 +chaals; got it
15:13:21 RS: ARIA doesn't currently have rowgroup, but could add colgroup to ARIA 1.1
15:13:41 s/rowgroup/colgroup
15:13:49 q?
15:14:01 CS: does it matter?
15:14:27 RS: Firefox wanted to have everything for what they have in HTML5
15:14:35 …that is how it showed up.
15:14:48 q+
15:14:50 CS: how big of a deal is this? is it a necessary thing.
15:14:58 JF: thead, or rowgroup?
15:15:04 CS: rowgroup
15:15:11 RS: what does thead map to?
15:15:28 CS: it can change the mapping of its children, but otherwise not specified
15:15:55 JF: i think you could fix the position of thead and tfoot and scroll the body of the table
15:16:13 …could be good for mobile
15:16:23 JS: i think we negotiated this back in 2008
15:16:34 q+
15:16:37 q?
15:16:46 ack st
15:17:12 SF: IE does not expose even a TR, at least not in MSAA
15:17:45 RS: firefox added a rowgroup role in. not sure what their motivation was.
15:17:51 …thought they needed it for thead
15:17:56 ack m
15:18:55 q?
15:18:56 JF: has anyone talked to dbolter?
15:19:09 RS: they wanted to have every HTML element to have a mapping.
15:20:01 JF: rowgroup has been around for a really long time. perhaps they just wanted to get everything in there. is there anything we really need to do?
15:20:11 RS: do we want to do that consistently across the platforms.
15:20:26 CS: MSAA is not supposed to have random strings in the role.
15:20:37 RS: you can do it in UiA
15:20:44 q?
15:20:46 CS: yes
15:21:34 JS: suggest Rich ask the HTML WG to ask if there was a working group decision or approach to implement this, or if they were on their own.
15:21:41 q+
15:21:45 RS: from what I understand, they were on their own.
15:22:12 RS: we have a table mapping HTML elements in ARIA that never included these elements. Was this an oversight?
15:22:25 CS: maybe they weren't in the spec at that time.
15:22:28 ack st
15:22:54 SF: thead has never been taken out of spec, nor tbody. I don't understand what is being asked? what are we suggesting the HTML WG do in regards to rowgroup?
15:23:50 …sounds to me like you have elements that group rows and we have mappings to them in Firefox, but this cannot me addressed in the HTML spec.
15:23:59 q?
15:24:29 JF: whether or not we have a way of expressing these elements to the API? i would say yes… but don't know if there is a semantic that we can use.
15:24:43 html 4 allowed scope="rowgroup" for a header scope
15:24:51 CS: if it can be done in UiA it can be done for all the elements in HTML
15:25:16 q?
15:25:19 RS: what we have to do is 2 things: any elements that are missing in the table, we need to define an ARIA semantic for
15:25:34 …next we have to decided what the user agent has to do with it. toss it away, or use it.
15:25:53 …there are elements in the HTML 5 spec that don't have native host semantics.
15:26:08 …happy to let the browsers decide what they want to do with rowgroup.
15:26:31 …cynthia if you have a thead, would you expose the scrollable interface control pattern?
15:26:42 CS: good idea, not sure if that is how its implemented.
15:27:00 RS: either way you would want to have the user agent tell the API what it is
15:27:12 …scrollable or not, doesn't really matter from my perspective.
15:27:18 JF: sounds reasonable.
15:27:47 RS: you need to have a look through HTML5 to find elements that don't have host language semantics.
15:28:03 q+
15:28:15 -John_Foliot
15:28:21 +John_Foliot
15:28:25 …user agent implementation needs to add support for these
15:28:41 ack steveF
15:28:59 https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/aria-unofficial/raw-file/tip/index.html#recommendations-table
15:29:28 SF: using ARIA in HTML doc. list of all the HTML elements. second column defines which ones have ARIA mapping or not.
15:29:50 …some have multiple elements in them. all elements should be there.
15:30:04 RS: transfer this to HTML5 spec
15:30:16 SF: i've been arguing for this.
15:30:26 …will get it done
15:30:35 JS: should we create a bug?
15:30:49 SF: yes, that is what should be done.
15:31:21 …it shouldn't be a high traffic bug.
15:31:39 https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/enter_bug.cgi?product=HTML%20WG&component=HTML5%20spec&priority=P3
15:33:14 RS: I will file the bug.
15:34:17 JS: lets put a TF keyword in there.

15:40:47 MS: 2 bugs came up in Triage that we want to bring to TF
15:41:13 … 9485: Requiring conformance checkers to refer to WCAG regarding alternative text stuff.
15:41:54 … There is a bug from Martin Leihm, Henri Sivonen says there is no reason for teh spec to micromanage the UI of tools.
15:41:59 … Triage felt this could not be tracked, and should be re-assigned to validator product.
15:41:59 q+
15:42:05 .. ideas?
15:42:22 Steve: You could file a bug on the validator.
15:42:26 JS: Is this one we want to pursue?
15:42:33 LW: Don't think so.
15:42:42 SF: Don't think so
15:42:44 -Cynthia_Shelly
15:42:51 JS: How do you assess quality heurisitically?
15:43:10 LW: Think this bug was filed when the spec was weaker on accessibility.
15:43:10 JS: agree.
15:43:10
