rs: There are cases where it might not be advisable

fe: Not sure it's always a best practice

Issue-742

<clown> issue-742

<trackbot> issue-742 -- Introduce the ability to provide the destination context of a link -- open

<trackbot> https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/Group/track/issues/742

rs: I learned there's a wiki collection of rel values

<richardschwerdtfeger> http://microformats.org/wiki/existing-rel-values#HTML5_link_type_extensions

rs: Met with Dpub, and believe all issues are on the table
... Dpub doesn't want to be making the decision
... There's a lot in the rel wiki
... Much of it makes no sense from an ARIA or COGA perspective
... COGA's interest is in styling the UI
... Currently, rel is not mapped on link by AT
... It's possible Xlink would apply for SVG
... Noting that there will be no DOM access via Edge

lw: How would screen readers use COGA info?
... Curious how this works from a user experience

rs: At the moment, there's a lot we don't know

mk: Is there an assumption that SR would expose?
... Some kind of setting "i want this additional info"

rs: Much of it may not be of value
... COGA wants it styled for comprehension
... Some of the values may, but others may not have value to AT
... The Dpub values are much more clearly valuable

janina: Concerned that exposing el means exposing any of the rel registered taxonomies.

rs: Also concerned that the supported taxonomies would continue growing

js: So we only expose a subset of possible rel values?

rs: Yes, a subset. Challenge is which ones

lw: Using a prefix notation a la dublin core?
... So, aria.XXX or coga.XXX etc

<richardschwerdtfeger> got disconnected

<mck> hmm

<mck> snow day in California?

<mck> matt is back

rs: We don't have rel attrib for link role
... So, it wouldn't work on a div

<clown> <div role="link" rel="???"> can't be done.

mk: questions that

js: Not conformant
... Likely browser will leave it in the DOM
... Believe browser would add rel value to the dom

mk: ARIA would have to define for it to be valid?

js: Or get mod from HTML

jd: Or require it limited to anchor

<richardschwerdtfeger> no. <link rel=“”>

fe: Saw examples of link in body ...
... Ah, for linking to alternative formats, other lang versions, etc

js: Doubt "link" used in body would actually be rendered

<joanie> http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/document-metadata.html#the-link-element

<clown> <link rel="author license" href="/about">

rs: We won't resolve this today ...
... Only reason to suggest ARIA-Destination at this time is for specialized Dpub roles
... To describe/identify the destination by type
... Example is identifying link goes to a glossary definition

mk: Can a sighted user distinguish these somehow? Are they styled differently?

rs: Yes

mk: Wondering aloud whether we already have something like this
... Help for the control

rs: Styling is supported so long as an attribute selector is available
... We can't hold up ARIA-1.1 for Destinationq+

<Zakim> clown, you wanted to ask whose governance is rel/micorformats under? And which of our specs documents our @rel values?

js: Who controls the supported vocabulary?

<richardschwerdtfeger> http://microformats.org/wiki/existing-rel-values#HTML5_link_type_extensions

js: So we convince them of the values we want?

rs: No, we just tell them

js: I'm leary of needing to add our values to this wiki

mk: Concerned that Destination is attrib bloat

rs: Would like to resolve this soon

mc: Hearing much concern of how rel is extended in this conversation and note this is an old, much debated concern
... We may want to re-raise this with Web Platforms

rs: Noting we could develop this via Dpub module and add to ARIA core later, if this turns out to be preferred

action-1361?

<trackbot> action-1361 -- Matthew King to Suggest new text for the application role -- due 2015-06-11 -- OPEN

<trackbot> https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/Group/track/actions/1361

<mck> 1. Remove use of the word "application" from the definition of application.

<mck> 2. Specify it is a section or structure.

<mck> 3. Make clear that it is unnecessary for standard widgets to help avoid overuse.

<mck> 4. Editorial improvements, e.g., remove redundant wording from the description.

mk: #3 most important to me

<clown> http://w3c.github.io/aria/aria/aria.html#application

mk: "Application" is much overused, even by AT

<joanie> https://github.com/w3c/aria/commit/7593ebf36?diff=split

mk: Shouldn't need application role where everything in the region is a standard widget

<mck> http://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/mck_applicationRole/aria/aria.html#landmark

<clown> http://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/mck_applicationRole/aria/aria.html#application

<fesch> Yes you need an application role when you make your own widget like a interactive chart widget and need the key events passed to you

[group discussing proposed revisions]

<joanie> fesch: maybe widget should then not be abstract

<fesch> joanie: well right now you have to use application... if widget worked...

<fesch> right now, you have to use application in order to get get events

<fesch> even if you an application the browser won't give you every event like tab...

mk: Why application should be child of landmark? Suggest should be sibling of document

js: Believe what we have came from looking at portals and portlets

mk: So why document not landmark

rs: Because we use it top switch out of this application stuff

mk: But that goes both ways--suggest there's confusion here
... suggest putting "document" on body is redundant
... suggest 99% of application usage is useless, region would work as well

rs: Don't quite see the corelation
... Taking a straw poll ...

lw: Agrees with MK

jn: Would prefer a better way to do what we need to do
... Don't mind removing it from landmarks

rs: No objections to removing application from landmark?

mk: Will finish edits and see how it goes
... Are labels required

rs: Not for role=document
... Any objections?
