s in the
techniques draftJT confusion regarding prompts and alerts. Can we make changes to definitions?
CMN We can add errata. If they are trivial we can incorporate them into a 1.01 draft, but if they change anything we must go through the process.
JT reads definition of prompt. An entry field is not requiring author response.
GR There can be author response.
JR This is confusing
CMN the question is whether a prompt can be part of an existing prompt
JT we could remove the second sentence
HS that would allow a squiggly underline
DB that isn't a prompt
CMN We have defined alert as well, and a squiggly is an alert.
JT there was a discussion on the meanings and what we were going to say.
Action JT send notes on definitions of prompt/alert to list
JT We need to be clear on what we mean. We should have examples on what we mean by prompt.
GR That's why I suggested image insertion from Homesite
/* Heather leaves
CMN I haven't been able to get the minutes up, so I would rather finish them and this discussion on-list or next week
CMN has read, but not responded formally
JT Were the comments about the referenced document or the things in the AU techniques
MK The things in the techniques document
Action CMN Start response thread for Marjolein's comments on 7.1
CMN The thursday time cannot get W3C bridge. Maybe MIT but not month to month. Tuesday there was a bridge but no Gregory. GR I can do Tuesday now
JT The time might be conflicting with CG as well.
JT Should we try to change earlier?
Yes
Action CMN Find bridge and teleconference time, and give two weeks notice. Prefer thursday noon
CMN we have to produce a public draft by beginning of May, so need to put out to WAI-IG mid April. Need not be a Note, just a working draft.
GR is in our best interest to get it out early to get feedback before joint meeting with ER
JT This isn't so much a choice as a requirement on us
CMN If people can use structures (headings, etc) and alt/longdescs I can get it in a lot faster
JT we were looking at one year, writing up what we think should be one to the Guidelines
Action JT Post charter suggestion to list as proposal
GR Going to do FrontPage / HomeSite
JT Any volunteers for re-evaluating existing conformances?
DB I would like to keep Heather doing that. I will work with her. One of our best shots is to get more from Frontpage
CMN The Frontpage people were keen to get evaluations and comment on them, rather than do their own, especially at this early stage. That may be a common approach.
JT I will ask some people here (ATRC) to do some repeats. We will have Education tools review soon as well.
