Handling of 4.1.1 Parsing for changes made to WCAG 2.0 and 2.1 in WCAG2ICT

maryjom: Looking at all different possibilities out there.

maryjom: Question is how to handle it in the document.

maryjom: Leadership discussion gives us a couple of options. Would have to publish 2.1 version. Or we could modify this note to be more generically covering WCAG in whatever form.

maryjom: Pro to separate documents - each version clearly defined. Con would have to publish 3 notes. A lot of work.

maryjom: Option 2 - would have to change title and update guidance to 4.1.1.

<Sam> +1 to Chuck

Chuck: Based on experience, trying to maintain multiple notes is challenging.

Shadi: Please don't publish multiple documents.

Sam: I agree with Chuck

maryjom: Wanted to present all options. We are in agreeement.

maryjom: helps me put forward the proposal. I can put the change out for review.

PhilDay: We should specify 2.X so when 3 comes out we don't have issues

dmontavlo: What's the difference between WCAG 2 and 2X?

mitch11: If I saw 2 it might look like 2.0 to me. But I don't mind what we do either way.

<maryjom> DRAFT RESOLUTION: Publish one document to cover all three WCAG 2 versions and rename document to be for WCAG 2

Survey results: Proposal(s) for 2.4.11 Focus Not Obscured (Minimum)

<maryjom> Original survey results: https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/55145/WCAG2ICT-fpwd-responses/results

<maryjom> New survey results: https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/55145/WCAG2ICT-draft2-closed-functionality/results

maryjom: Four main issues in first survey. Heading, examples, examples should be same as definition, more clear SC not to be used on hardware

Question 1: New title for the section

<maryjom> https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/55145/WCAG2ICT-draft2-closed-functionality/results#xq3

<maryjom> Options surveyed: Closed Functionality Situations Closed Functionality Contexts Comments on Closed Functionality Software with Closed Functionality Closed Functionality Examples

<maryjom> Options surveyed: 1) Closed Functionality Situations 2) Closed Functionality Contexts 3) Comments on Closed Functionality 4) Software with Closed Functionality 5) Closed Functionality Examples

<maryjom> 6) Closed Functionality Considerations 7) Closed Functionality and WCAG 2.2. 8) Closed Functionality Guidance

<loicmn> Link to EAA: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32019L0882

<loicmn> Example of hardware+software products: "consumer general purpose computer hardware systems and operating systems for those hardware systems"

Shadi: I thought the OS level is considered part of the product

loicmn: Unclear with word product combining hardware and software

mike_pluke: May not be an issue anyhow

maryjom: 4 isn't preferred, just wanted to understand terminology

maryjom: Other preferred option was Phil's comment

maryjom: Only issue is we are not using defn- in key terms.

maryjom: not sure how much work it will be to accomplish

PhilDay: If the proposal I made is going to be complicated, I am happy to withdraw

Sam: I like Bruce's point

Shadi: Mike, would such a change have impact on EN#?

<maryjom> Poll: Which do you prefer? 1) Closed Functionality Situations 2) Closed Functionality Contexts 3) Comments on Closed Functionality 4) Software with Closed Functionality 5) Closed Functionality Examples 6) Closed Functionality Considerations 7) Closed Functionality and WCAG 2.2. 8) Closed Functionality Guidance or 9) Something else

Mike_Pluke: Not 100% sure. I don't think we are going to reproduce that heading.

<PhilDay> 3, then 8, then 5 in order of preference

<Sam> 4

Shadi: Thinking of eBook readers that could be combinations of that. There are overlaps of hardware and software.

<mitch11> 3, otherwise 4, otherwise any. (I think I understand Shadi's concerns but they should be addressed in the text, regardless of the heading.)

<loicmn> 3, then 4

<shadi> +1 to Mitch

<LauraBMiller> +1 mitch

3, 4, 6

<Mike_Pluke> 3, 8

<Chuck> 5 for three, 1 for four

Question 2: The closed functionality examples in the callout

<maryjom> https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/55145/WCAG2ICT-draft2-closed-functionality/results#xq1

maryjom: Greg was thinking smartphone item would be confusing. He suggested adding in language.

maryjom: Agreement on using ATM

<maryjom> Loic's alternate proposal for telephony bullet: "telephony devices such as IP phones, feature phones, smartphones, and phone-enabled tablets. Although smartphones have build in AT or AT-like features they are mostly (but not completely) closed to other AT"

maryjom: Agreement on Loïc's comment

Sam: I think old definition was straight forward enough on telephone devices

loicmn: I felt it was good to have this comment added, but I'm also happy with simple version.

<LauraBMiller> Have to jump, thanks!

<Chuck> gotta go

<maryjom> DRAFT RESOLUTION: Update the closed functionality examples, editing to change ABM to ATM.
