<janina> Meeting: HTML-A11Y Task Force Teleconference

<scribe> scribenick: chaals

zakim take up agendum 1

Longdesc status

JS: Calls for Consensus in HTML is ongoing, PF expects to be done this week.

… We could have a Last Call next week.

MS: Regarding announcement. I thought we should mention that we want to skip CR. I think that may be unnecessary.

… haven't found a precedent. I imagine anyone that can would, but there is no need to announce it in advance.

CMN: +1 to it not being required. Webapps does not announce this at last call - if we can we are likely to talk about it in going to CR, but it isn't always clear that we will manage to do that anyway.

JB: Reasons for and against. Going ahead signals we really want the implementations so we can skip it, and that can help get attention.

… We talk about wanting to reintegrate this into HTML5, and therefore there may be an advantage in not surprising the HTMLWG if we are suddenly ready to add it...

<Zakim> MarkS, you wanted to discuss other methods for getting input

CMN: Don't see that we will get anything by making the announcement in the Status - this issue has been running for most of a decade and relevant people are likely to be aware.

MS: Would be happier to make an announcement if we were at a point where we are seriously ready to make the announcement - have tests, draft implementation data already. Once we areat that point I think we should start communicating about this.

JS: Is it common to talk about testing plans at announcements?

JB: In Last Call it is common to talk about plans to build a test suite. But thereis no harm in talking about more if you are further advanced.

MS: In email, or in the doc.
