Face to Face Meeting Discussion https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/47076/FlorenceF2F/results

<Vivienne> https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/47076/FlorenceF2F/results

VC: 4 probably can attend
... others at W4A but not at the meeting

SAZ: question how useful the face-to-face would be at this stage
... maybe if Silvia and Justin are sure they will have the E-Learning report ready

VC: could work with people individually

SAZ: maybe should focus our energy right now on getting the group moving more smoothly and look for a face-to-face opportunity later in the year

MH: agree

VC: maybe meeting time conflicts

<mhakkinen> +1 to no f2f at w4a

RESOLUTION: RDWG will not be holding a F2F meeting at WWW2015

<Vivienne> +1

Accreditation Catalogue Topic Review https://www.w3.org/WAI/RD/wiki/Accreditation

VC: combined challenges and research opportunities
... looking for feedback

SAZ: are some of these questions too detailed?
... or good to be specific?

MH: good to be specific

SAZ: how would it be for other topics?

MH: we may need to abstract for others

SAZ: concerned about the volume and maintenance
... expecting a brief summary

MH: may not need to be uniform across all topics

<Judy> [judy speaking for a catalog that is broad, in terms of topics, but that does not need to be of uniform depth]

Co-Chair's Group Update

http://www.w3.org/WAI/RD/charter4

JB: less understanding of the purpose of the group
... easier to understand the role of WCAG and WAI-ARIA than the broader aspects of accessibility
... increasing the reach of RDWG could be made more clear
... happy to contribute ideas to make sections clearer
... would be important to make progress until next week

MK: have been looking at it and had some thoughts too

VC: good to take a fresh look at it

JB: coherent Charter but needs to be better explained
... will try to be available for the second half of next week's meeting
