  6. Work for this week and survey overview

Summary

EOWG convened its last meeting of 2015. Brent began the meeting by reminding the group of two things. First is the fact that participants will be doing more direct editing and review of EO materials going forward. He gave James' current work on the open issues from the first set of Tips as an example of what to expect. Secondly, Brent reminded everyone to re-join EOWG under the new charter for 2016. Eric gave a brief update on comments to the QuickRef. Proposed changes were accepted. Kevin presented the entire Planning and Managing Web Accessibility resource for high level review. Look at the resource as a whole, is everything here that should be? Is it too repetitive? is the tone right, etc? Will be another opportunity for fine editorial detail but feel free to contribute those comments if they occur to you. We are looking at the big picture but while doing that, if you see obvious editorial changes - like tersification - go ahead and do it. Next was a discussion of the suggested change to alt text Tip for designers. Eric was satisfied that his objections were addressed with the rewritten tip (though he would prefer two tips) and the focus turned to a suggestion for examples. Kevin will work on it and bring to the group. In considering suggested additional changes to the current WCAG-EM Report Tool prototype, most were postponed to a later release to expedite publication of the 1.1 version. EO participants seeking further editorial changes (for example an accessibility statement) will write those and submit. The resolution is:

  • No accessibility statement will be included in version 1.1 update. If David feels strongly that one needs to be added, he will provide an edit for consideration in a future version.

More brainstorming on a change to the title of the resource. The primary reason to change is that people have a perception that this is an automated tool. Suggestions for a word to replace "Tool" in the title are welcome in the weekly survey. The next meeting will be January 8th 2016. In the meantime, please watch the wiki and use the time to catch up on reviews and surveys. Happy holidays.

Summary

EOWG convened to discuss progress on current deliverables and plan for wrapping up the year. Brent reminded the group that there would be only this meeting and one more. He asked the group to attend to surveys and expect full agendas for the next couple of weeks. Kevin reviewed his progress and expectations for the the Planning and Managing Accessibility resource. He is planning to have a complete first draft by next week for review over the year end holiday break. Eric introduced his current work on the QuickRef and the following resolutions were made:

  • Add one brief explanatory sentence about WCAG Techniques in the About section of the tool. Unlink the whole sentence. Add a link at the end of the sentence to the Understanding Techniques page.
  • Remove prefix SC from the listing of numbered success criteria
  • Remove link icons from the Understanding button and the sufficient techniques section.
  • Replace dot indicator with small tick/checkmark/hackchen

Subsequent discussion of the Quick Tips and the question of a suggested change to the Images tutorial resulted in these additional resolutions:

  • Change alt text tip title in Design to "Include image and media alternatives in your design"
  • In Images tutorial, move longdesc from first approach for solution to complex images to fourth approach.
  • Edit text to read "In Firefox, long descriptions linked by longdesc are available through View description in the image's context menu.
  • Do not accept the edit to add a Warning icon and language.

Wilco then joined the call to discuss the updates he has made to the WCAG-EM Report Tool in response to EO and public comments. Discussion included brainstorming about a new name for the resource and EOWG should expect to see a survey item on that question. The meeting adjourned with reminders to stay current with and responsive to Work for this Week as much as possible. Brent noted that chairs and staff will be trying to get meeting agendas updated as early as possible on Thursdays and asked EO to look at the agenda, and try to get familiar with issues so we have more background when coming to meetings. Thanks to all.

04 December Teleconference

Agenda

  1. Planning Resource
  2. Getting Started Tips
  3. Quickref
  4. Intro to longdesc discussion
  5. Reminder of Work for this Week, F2F, attendence surveys, etc

Summary

EOWG convened to consider public and EO comments on the Planning Guide and QuickRef as well as ongoing EO business. Discussion of the suggested re-titles of the Planning Guide resulted in the following resolution.
RESOLUTION: The resource will be renamed Planning and Managing Web Accessibility.
Next was discussion of how to reference existing EO resources within the Planning and Managing Web Accessibility (PMWA) tool. The question concerned making an exception to the convention of referring to supporting EO documents within a "More information" section. For the 25% or so of activities that will have direct correlation to an activity (such as the Business Case) should the reference be made inline to the activity description instead? This question will be on next week's survey. Next was a consideration of a change suggested by a public comment on the Getting Started Tips. What was previously a focus on alt text for images has become a broader tip that includes media accessibility, putting the The Tip title and content out of alignment. Kevin will consider points made during discussion and bring a new version back next week. Eric then walked EO through the updates made to the QuickRef in response to public comment. Suggestions for response to selected public comments include:

  • In trying to provide a QuickRef we are avoiding visual complication that would result from linking terms to the glossary. A link to the Understanding document has the full spec including links to glossary terms.
  • Changes to the filters will change the SC and techniques that are displayed.
  • AnnaBelle will work with Eric on visual polish.

Finally, the group considered the recent pull request that changed the order of the solutions for complex images (in the Images Tutorial) and issued a warning about browser support for longdesc. EO chairs will coordinate with WCAG to determine next steps. Brent reminded everyone of the need to stay current on Work for this Week, surveys, and completion of availability for teleconferences and F2F meeting in 2016. Thanks all!

Summary

EOWG convened to consider public feedback on current work and progress on deliverables. First was a brief update from the co-Chairs about updates to the WCAG-EM report tool - there is a new prototype - and the need for translation. EO is asked to help reach out to their networks for translators and to review the prototype before the discussion on 4 Dec when Wilco will try to join the call. Eric next announced that public review of the QuickRef is open and he had made some minor changes based on feedback already received. EO is enocuraged to continue to reveiw and submit comments until 2 Dec. Brent and Shadi reported on progress of the Showcase Examples with video. They are in process of choosing a production company and any EO participants who want to review submitted samples, please contact Shadi. Consideration was next given to the comments on icon use in the planning resource.

EOWG resolved to use icons for top categories but not for individual activities.

When next considering the name of the planning resource, discussion did not result in a clear favorite. The question will appear as a ranking option on next week's survey. Also on the survey will be the opportunity to comment on the start of content development for the Initiate section. An additional survey, with a longer window for response, will be provided to approve publication of the changes made to the Getting Started Tips. Brent summarized the items for EO to expect on the surveys, cautioned them that the 27 Nov teleconference was only a 50/50 chance at this point, and thanked everyone for their efforts as the meeting adjourned.

Summary

EO convened to review changes and consider next steps for current deliverables. First, Kevin presented his plans for responding to public comments on the Getting Started Tips. Group review resulted in the following resolutions:

Next EO considered the changes to the Accessibility Planning Roadmap, accepting the idea to greatly shorten the titles of the activities (but avoid shortening too much.) The linear nature of the process was discussed and a consideration was made for numbering the sections. The question was tabled for editor's discretion. Kevin asked EO to consider the name - is this really a 'Roadmap?' - and other questions that will be documented on next week's survey.

Eric thanked everyone for their review of the QuickRef prototype. Eric said most were minor comments, easily addressed. A scope comment was addressed by WCAG Chair and withdrawn as a 'show-stopper.' Eric asked Howard for more detail about his comment regarding the "Contribute" panel. Suggestions were made to move to the footer and Eric will take those under consideration. Brent reminded everyone to look for the update to W4TW and the survey, thanks for your contribution, see you next week.

Summary

After a round of introductions, EOWG focused on progress and options for current deliverables and public comments received since publication of the Getting Started Tips. Discussion began with Kevin's consideration of comments James made regarding the Planning Guide. James observed that the resource is quite wordy and suggested shorter alternatives for titles as well as an option for including icons. EO discussed each of these separately and resolved the following:

  • RESOLVED: Shorter names will be used for the activities.
  • RESOLVED: James will explore and suggest possible icons for the activities. Acceptance will depend on research results.

Consideration of the design update brought comments about the lack of balanced visual presentation in the columns layout and the potential for confusion about order and relationships. Kevin will consider these in next steps. Additional updates included these:

  • Quick Start Tips have received external public comment and Kevin has drafted response. EO comment is encouraged on the next weekly survey
  • Review of QuickRef prototype survey is open until Nov 10 and comments/approvals are needed from EO.

Brent reminded all to update availability for teleconference meetings since the holidays are coming. Questions about Face to Face meetings prompted Sharron to commit to posting a F2F survey as well. The meeting adjourned with welcome to new member Susan and welcome back to Sylvie and AnnaBelle.

Summary

EOWG met to review progress on current deliverables and to welcome new participant, Susan Hewitt of Deque. After a brief introduction, Susan said she would post more about her background to the EO list. Brent asked Kevin for an update on the Planning Resources and it was reported that the survey contained few substantive comments, mostly agreement with direction and Kevin asked for any additional comments or questions from meeting attendees. David asked if consideration had been given to providing guidance for translation, pictographic, or left-to-right languages. Kevin noted the relevance of that question and asked David for some specific suggestions, particularly on how to weave those questions into existing personas. Discussion led to the resolution listed below. Eric next reported on QuickRef progress and asked everyone to look at current MockUp to ascertain if comments had been properly addressed. Eric informed EO that he was still working on issues with the double scroll bar. Once those issues are resolved and Eric has the opportunity to update EO, he will post a joint survey for EO and WCAG Discussion of the link text for the filtered out SCs ended up with two resolutions, one superseding the other. The final Resolution is listed below. Update from the Task Force on Showcase Examples with Video ended with the acceptance of the approach and the development of story boards. The final list of Resolutions is:

  • There is general acceptance in EO of approach to Planning personas and prototype. It is OK for Kevin to move forward, review activities in detail, and develop the resource within this context.
  • EO accepts the current Showcase with Video scenarios and basic approach. The TF should proceed to develop the story boards.
  • Change link text in the QuickRef to "What did the filter remove?" and leave heading below as "Filtered Success Criteria"

Sharron reminded everyone that there would be a survey soon to try to identify dates in 2016 for EOWG face to Face meetings. Possible dates are CSUN in March, AccessU in May. EO should be thinking about what might be possible for them next year. The meeting closed with Brent's reminder to everyone to stay in touch with Work for the Week and to remember that there will be two surveys - one the typical weekly EO survey and the other specific to the QuickRef questions for both EO and WCAG.

  4. Status Update on Tips - deferred issues & public comments
  5. Survey summary and Work for this Week

Summary

EOWG convened for the weekly teleconference to welcome a new co-chair and continue work on deliverables in progress. First up was the announcement that Shawn is transitioning to a role as team Contact for EO and Brent Bakken of Pearson has accepted the position of co-chair. Sharron will continue in her role. After congratulations and thanks, Shadi introduced the topics for group consideration. Kevin re-introduced us to the Planning Resources, the foundation for which was laid earlier this year. EO should look to Work for this Week and the survey to ask any questions or seek clarification of purpose and goals. next eric updated EO on his response to recent feedback, including navigation and display updates. These will be presented for detailed comment in this week's survey. In considering the Hidden SC link that is displayed after a filtering operation has occurred, there was discussion of purpose, potential, and placement. The following resolutions were made related to the QuickRef:

  • Information in footer can be moved to "About" or bottom of main section, at editor's discretion to facilitate removal of double scroll bars
  • Display the Hidden SCs according to the design suggested and move the link to the main alert box.

Kevin next informed the group that there remained 12 outstanding issues on the Tips and that it is his intention to work on 8 of them immediately. One will be in this week's survey. Brent reminded everyone to watch for updates to Work for this Week and the new survey and the meeting adjourned.

Agenda

  1. Showcase examples - thanks, processing, coming soon
  2. WCAG 2.0 Errata - pros, cons, issues with incorporating into main doc
  3. QuickRef redesign
    • Design input from survey - thanks, processing, coming soon

    • Tagging activities - great idea; have tried it in different ways (e.g., ARB) but taxomony not done yet - discussion
  4. Planning & Managing docs - discuss Approach

Summary

EOWG convened to consider progress on current deliverables and additional education and outreach tasks. Brent provided a TaskForce update on the Showcase Examples project by thanking EO for useful comments and feedback on scenarios. He noted that the comments are being processed by the TF consisting of himself, Shadi and Adina and that they are recruiting others to contribute to the project. Shawn introduced the question of EO's opinion of the proposal for WCAG-WG to address the errata. She asked for consideration and feedback on pros and cons, messaging, outreach consequesnces etc. Noting that the errata address only editorial fixes and not substantive errata and that the result would publish with a new date and an "edited Recommendation" designation, Shawn asked EO to put their thoughts into next week's survey. Eric then presented an update on the QuickRef, thanking all for thier input and noting that the two big issues to come from the comments were suggestions for intro messaging and revisions to tagging structure. Discussion of the tag "compatibility" including brainstorming for alternatives but ended with acceptance of that as the best tag for the purpose. In discussion of including activities or roles as a filtering option (for which there is strong support), EO balanced usefulness against introduction of interface complexity. Decision was to continue to explore how to include with strong implementation support from EO. Kevin then led a discussion of his research, analysis, and proposal for a new approach to the Planning and Managing Suite of documents. EO participants discussed, had questions answered, and accepted Kevin's proposal. The resolutions that passed during the meeting are:

  • Retain the term "compatibility" until and unless someone has a viable (brilliant) alternative before publication if the QuickRef.
  • Explore the development of the functionality of introducing activities filters dependent on the creation of a workable taxonomy.
  • Three documents (and a possible GS-Tip on Managing) will comprise the suite of Planning and Managing: A newly formatted Roadmap with content from Strategic Planning, the current Improving (with minor tweaks), and the current Policy (with minor tweaks.)

Summary

EOWG met to review status of existing projects and get oriented about what was coming up next. First Shawn introduced EO participants to Adina Halter who is joining to work specifically on the Showcase Examples with Video. After a round of introductions, chairs reminded EO about the two important surveys that have been posted since last week and which are due on Tuesday, Oct 13th - links are posted, as always from Work for this Week. Next the group considered promotional efforts for the Getting Started Tips which were published last week and for ATAG which is now a W3C Recommendation. EO participants are asked to review the wiki page for Tips Promotion for ideas and understanding of how to work collaboratively on the promotional effort. Review ATAG outreach wiki page to review previous ATAG outreach and spread the word on that as well. A suggestion was made to include a Twitter and FB link for ease of sharing and Shawn agreed to investigate if/how that might be done. Next was the question of how the PF WG addressed EO comments on Media Accessibility User requirements. Shawn and Sharron are satisfied with the response and asked EO to look at the response and determine if anyone had additional comments. No one had comments and the resolution was made as follows:

  • EO accepts the disposition of our comments on the Media Accessibility User requirements doc.

Next the group turned to consideration of the Planning and Managing Accessibility resources. Kevin reminded us that preliminary analysis of these documents was done a year ago and that we are ready to return to the update and revision of these. Participants are asked to read and become familiar with these docs (linked from Work for this Week) and be prepared next week to discuss an approach to the work on them. Thorough review is not expected at this time, but high level familiarity and thoughts about the best approach to the revision. Also in queue is the final polish of the Easy Checks. We are looking for focused, actionable comments to move the resource out of draft. Sharron told the group of the intent to hold a WAI info session at Accessing Higher Ground in Boulder in November and encouraged EO participants to attend if possible. The remainder of the meeting time was spent brainstorming outreach ideas for promotion of the Getting Started Tips.

EO participants are asked to spread the word on social media etc using http://bit.ly/WAIQTips. Please document any outreach you do here: Promoting Getting Started Tips. Next was consideration of most recent updates to the Quick Ref. Eric has prepared a survey for QuickRef comments until Oct 12th, linked from Work for this Week. There is also a survey related to the Showcase Examples with Video project and it too is linked from the same wiki page. Shawn provided an update, reminding participants of our intentions with the Showcase project and pointing to requirements and Task Force objectives. Input welcome. Next was the question of EasyChecks, a resource that has been in draft for several months. We will focus on doing some cleanup and getting those to final publication. Consideration of the new Check, suggested by Gregg Vanderheiden, resulted in the decision to include it and suggestions for improvement. AnnaBelle is working on final tweaks to the illustrations. We want to get this published, so appreciate brief, clear feedback. Thanking everyone, Shawn adjourned the meeting.

Summary

EOWG convened for its weekly teleconference meeting to consider publication of the first set of three Tips for Getting Started - Designing, Developing, and Writing. Time was provided within the meeting to review the current changes (implemented since the last meeting), discuss a few unresolved issues, and register the fact that EO will continue to have time and resources to refine and update tips going forward. EO also considered resources currently in draft form and prioritized dedication of staff time to complete and publish existing resources vs working on three additional sets of potential Quick Start Tips. Discussion concluded with these resolutions:

  1. EO accepts all recorded changes with the exception of the "i" icon which is to be discussed.
  2. In Designing and Writing, replace "i" icon with checkmark.
  3. OK to publish with checkmark for rendered code (in Developing) with the understanding that open issues will include this icon and "grey bar issue."
  4. Prioritize RoadMap, Planning and Improving before next batch of Tips.

In reaching the decision about publication of the Tips, EO participants considered presentation of the overview page, the contribution panel, and the overall publication plan. Those attending registered their approval to publish within the posted survey and made commitments to test the Tips in various browsers and report any problems. Next was a discussion about how Easy Checks is also nearing the point where it can be published and be taken out of draft status. David committed to doing a thorough review and putting important issues in GitHub. Shawn reminded EO of the difference between the main list w3c-wai-eo@w3c.org and the editor's list wai-eo-editors@w3.org. The first is meant for general info needed by all EOWG active members and the second is more granular information needed only for those who are actively working on a specific resource. Finally, as the meeting adjourned, the co-chairs congratulated staff and EO participants who have contributed such good work to the Tips and thanked all for getting it to publication.

18 September Teleconference

Agenda

  1. Updates to Tips / survey response (Kevin)
  2. Tips
    1. Title of "Learn More" subsection.
    2. Design of examples
    3. Introductory text
  3. Charter tweaks: updated proposed charter, Diff
  4. Quickref survey results (Eric)
  5. Questions, discussion about EOWG participation and survey procedures, due dates. 16 Sept e-mail

Summary

EOWG met to consider the changes to the Quick Tips that Kevin implemented this week, to discuss production schedule and participant responsibility, and to get an update from Eric on the status and expectations for the QuickRef. Discussion points included reopening of the resolution to change the name of the "Learn More" section. Additoonal consideration is being made. New resolutions were made as follows:

  1. For Designing tips alt text example and similar others, can leave as is for the September release. For later, address the issue of explanation included in example box.
  2. Change intro text to "These tips are good practice; some tips are Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) requirements."
  3. Within charter revisions, change "commenting on open issues in the EOWG wiki" to "commenting on open issues."
  4. Accept additional charter edits as presented.

While it was not a formal resolution, EOWG also recommended for Kevin to remove the icons and descriptions of the next three sets of Tips, not link to the drafts, and provide a non-specific statement that we are working on More Tips and accepting input from the community (with Shadi's approval.) Shawn emphasized that the next two surveys should be fairly easy and quick and EOWG is encouraged to turn them around sooner rather than later. Eric provided a brief update on QuickRef progress but both he, Shawn, and Sharron emphasized that group should focus on QuickTips for now and get those done. Finally there was a question about participation requirements for Invited Experts vs participants with member affiliation. Shawn noted that since Good Standing requirements have been omitted in the new charters, member affiliated participants are no longer required to do as much as previously. EOWG is under close scrutiny about the ratio of Invited Experts vs member representatives however. Many stakeholders feel that Invited Experts must be active to maintain their participation. That is one reason why EO has added the ability for participants to focus on just one deliverable. Additional clarifications about participation can be found in the 16 September email to the EOWG list.Shawn thanked everyone for their focus on current deliverables and the meeting adjourned.

Next Sharron expressed deep appreciation of expertise and time commitment of all participants and reviewed requirements in order to meet production goals. The group passed the following resolution: As per charter expectation, participants attend meetings (or read minutes), complete surveys, comment in GitHub (or survey) and respond to emails.

Next on the agenda was the consideration of design changes for the presentation of examples in the Quick Tips. There was wide approval of the improvements and a few comments about minor further tweaks. Finally consideration was given to the "Learn More" sections and the link text and resources presented within them. Discussion led to issues raised in GitHub. EO is asked to consider the points raised and to comment as part of the work for this week. Discussion of QuickRef was tabled for email and/or next week's teleconference.

28 August Teleconference

Agenda

Summary

EO met for an abbreviated (1 hour) meeting to discuss the schedule and approach for completing the Quick Start Guide. The tips will be processed in 2 groups: The first group - consisting of the Tips for Developing, Designing, and Writing - will be finalized, polished and announced in September. The second group - Evaluating, Managing, and Advocating - will require a slightly different approach since they do not map as directly to WCAG and the SCs. We reviewed the requirements and looked at each of the three sets of Tips to consider the current drafts - the level of detail, the audience, and the approach. Shawn reminded everyone that the thorough review of the Writing Tips is due on September 1. This is the *last chance* we will have to make edits on the Writing Tips, so it is important to get this done before Tuesday.

    4. Tips Icons - Icons page, links to past discussions
      1. Designing - Results 1 ruled out based on concerns; Results 2, Results 3
        • Note that more of the Designing Tips apply to user interface/interaction design than to visual design
        • Discuss 3 wireframe
      2. Evaluating - Results for Bug - discuss magnifying glass over computer (4th one)
  4. Next Week
    1. Weekly survey with changes made (and maybe CAPTCHA tip)
    2. Writing Tips thorough review
    3. Probably no teleconference 28 August; instead, review Writing Tips and Developing Tips

Summary

EOWG met to review and discuss updates and changes to current work. First up was an update from Eric about his work on the QuickRef, which he said has not much if any change to the visual look since we last reviewed, but is functionally much improved with imported data from WCAG. We once again tabled the discussion of work process in the EOWG for next time since today's meeting was not well attended. Next the group reviewed the changes that Kevin has made and considered the current proposal Writing Tips that will be included based on survey and wiki input. The group approved the currently proposed alt text example with recommendations for making it more generic. Jon agreed to take a pass at doing that work. Discussion ensued about if/how to include an illustration for the Keep Content Clear and Concise tip. The group considered and approved of the revisions to the CAPTCHA tip, the wireframe icon for Designing (with tweaks) and the bug icon for Evaluating. Resolutions were:

  1. Reword last bullet (in Keep Simple Tip) to be more optional and add illustration to example.
  2. Use the wireframe icon for Designing and work on making it more clear when displayed in all sizes.
  3. Use the bug as the icon for Designing

EO participants were reminded to use GitHub for any additional comments and Eric promised to post his recorded GitHub training soon. Shawn said there may be more GitHub support from W3C following GeekWeek. Shawn proposed to add the final review of Writing Tips to the survey and work for this week since there will be plenty of time - there is no EOWG teleconference meeting next week so the survey will remain open until Sept 1. Thanks to all and a reminder to use Work for this week wiki page to stay current.

Agenda

  1. 7 August survey - debrief:
    • Changes - OKed
    • Developing Examples - discussing today
    • Designing, Alternative Text Tip - OKed
    • Developing Tip on CAPTCHA - to be included (late night survey answer)
  2. Writing Tips Combined - discuss Fresh Perspectives
  3. Writing Tips - alternative text tip (GitHub #133) - discuss new example
  4. Developing Tips examples (Examples GitHub issues) - discuss all examples
  5. Work for next week:

Summary

EOWG met to consider the results of review and comments submitted in response to the work for this week. In reviewing comments, a suggestion was made to remove all reference to CAPTCHA as it is outdated technology on its way out. However, most of EO felt that there was still enough use of CAPTCHA to warrant consideration of a related Tip. The resolution was made to keep a tip that mentions CAPTCHA (perhaps not in the title of the tip), emphasizes that it is inaccessible, and promotes the use of accessible authentication methods. Following more discussion, EO resolved to drop the first example in help users avoid and correct mistakes. Additional revisions were suggested and Kevin will consider all input and post his solutions to GitHub. Finally, Shawn reminded everyone of the process and the rapid pace for review of current work. Asked for everyone to stay in touch with Work for This Week and process questions and comments as soon as reasonably possible. Thanks all!

Summary

EOWG met to consider progress on the QuickStart Tips. Shawn pointed to Designing Tips as being finalized and urged anyone who had more to add to do so right away in GitHub. Next the group considered how to avoid redundancy and balance the need for short, focused tips against the fact that some issues are relevant in different ways for more than one of the Tip categories. A Cross-Activity Tips wiki page is open for your comments. Phrasing was discussed and suggestions made for tersification, including these resolutions:

  1. Pursue the direction of "easily identifiable" in Designing Tips and consider smoothing the phrase.
  2. Use the short, original version of the forms related tip in Writing Tips.
  3. Find another example for alt text in Writing Tips. Maybe different alt text in context.

Suggestion was made for the editor to think about how to provide guidance - in Designing and/or Developing - for two related scenarios. How to approach both various viewports (responsive) and degraded experiences (progressive enhancement). A suggestion was made that this consideration may be too advanced and therefore beyond scope for QuickTips. Shawn urged EO to stay in touch with the work for this week, adding comments in wiki, survey, or GitHub as appropriate. Thanks all for your input, Kevin for your strong effort, progress is good.

Summary

EOWG met to discuss ongoing feedback and suggestions for examples for the Quick Start Tips. After introducing James Green a new participant from VISA, Kevin and Shawn reported that they have addressed submitted comments and Kevin asked the group to review their responses. Please speak up if anything has been incorrectly or inadequately addressed. After discussion, the following directions/decisions were agreed upon: An approach of combining related Writing Tips was proposed and Kevin drafted a mockup for group consideration. A resolution was passed that in general, Tips will begin with those that are easy to understand and implement and move through stages of difficulty to the general and conceptual. Based on the requirements for this document, there are too many Development tips. EO participants will consider how to prioritize, combine, or eliminate individual Development Tips to meet stated goals. Shawn reminded everyone to stay attuned to Work for this Week and the meeting adjourned.

Summary

Summary: Shawn announced that goal of the EOWG teleconference today was to reveiw the tips that have been developed so far and determine if we want to include or exclude specific tips and to document reasons why we might decide either way. She asked everyone to make the determination based on the Criteria for Tips to include developed by EOWG at the outset of the project. Discussion/determination inlcuded the following:

  1. Writing - Headings: Will include soemthing like "use clear and simple headings to split up text when changing focus or introducing a new idea."
  2. Writing- Form Content: Direction would be not to focus so much on forms specifically but on providing clear instructions, including but not exclusively for forms.
  3. Writing - Lists: Much discussion about formats to improve general readability and understandability. Proposal is to draft a more generalized tip about making text readable and lists would be only one item within that umbrella.
  4. Developing - Language: Will draft a language declaration tip.
  5. Developing - Tables: Mention table markup not as separate tip but as an item in 'convey with markup.'
  6. Developing - Resize text: Kevin to develop quick draft for purposes of rating.
  7. Developing - Alt Text: add to survey for purposes of rating.
  8. Developing - CAPTCHA: differing opinions about the approapriateness of this topic as a "Quick Tip" to get started.
  9. Developing - Evaluation / Developing - Naming: Ideas discussed but no direction was established or decision made.

    2. Next we need input on the potential examples - before we spend time creating them. That will be next survey. For now, feel free to add a GitHub issue for each example that you have comments on.
  5. Quickref
    1. FYI on the questions from the survey July 7th

Summary

EOWG met to discuss the comments that participants submitted this week and to resolve any outstanding issues. Discussion led to the following resolutions:

  1. Showcase with videos task force work statement is approved as amended (with clarification of TF member roles).
  2. Include most of the Tips for Design. Exceptions were to omit tip about images of text and to table tip on alt text for images until other Tips are complete and final determination can be made.
  3. Include an example for Spacing and Headings (Designing) and leave the current draft open to refine and improve.
  4. For the QuickRef prototype, retain design that has panel on left with tab for content and tab for filters.

Additional comments included Shawn's reminder to stay on top of the EO Work for this Week to help Kevin determine which ideas to proceed with. There were also shouts of "Bravo" for updates to QuickRef.

  3. (postponed to next week) Showcase Task Force — participation

Summary

EOWG met to discuss the comments submitted by active participants and to resolve any outstanding issues. Discussion centered on the Tips for Designing and the QuickRef v8 and led to the following resolutions:

  1. Kevin will draft an example for use of headings and spacing.
  2. Required field example will remain, test question example will remain, will keep both before and after examples.
  3. Will tweak color choice to be less attention-grabbing and more aligned with known colors that cause barriers.
  4. Kevin will develop a short tip about alt text specifically related to design considerations, succinct and focused.

Additional discussion of QuickRef v8 was strongly supportive of the direction it is going. While trying to avoid over filling the page with text, there was consideration of the need to balance not being intrusive while also making sure that people understand that they have filtered out some information. Eric will keep these things in mind as he continues to revise the design and operation of the QuickRef. Shawn reminded everyone that there is much review to be done and asked that EO stays in tune to Work for this Week.

Next Eric pointed to the detailed feedback he received at the Auto-WCAG conference last month and presented his new prototypes for group response. Eric will consider suggestion and responses received and continue to improve the QuickRef.

Kevin reviewed the GitHub comments and suggestions he received, prompted group discussion and made the following Resolutions:

  1. Remove the tip 'Provide visible controls for audio and video players.'
  2. Write a suggested tip based on Vicki's suggestion for alt text
  3. Remove button example, look at grey-on-grey as a more common misuse of low contrast.
  4. Weave in the notion of text on images without adding too much text and no example.
  5. Simplify 'Color Alone' example (but ideally not required fields in red)
  6. Address clarity of captions, change styling to be different from WAI styling for examples, change general styling of example boxes, put links in a contextual paragraph

26 June Teleconference

Agenda

  1. Tips - discuss open questions:
    1. In Designing, should 'luminosity' be included in contrast discussion? GitHub issue 36
    2. In Writing, should 'Expand all acronyms on their first use' be removed? GitHub issue 28
    3. In Writing, is 'Keep it short and simple' too vague? GitHub issue 29
    4. Should the Learn more links be in a consistent order? GitHub issue 40
    5. How should Learn More links be presented? GitHub issue 39
      Option 1, Option 2, or Option 3
    6. Images - in general, what do you think of the examples in Tips for Designing? GitHub issue 30
      Should good and bad examples be used, for example, Don't use color alone to signify meaning? GitHub issue 27
  2. Upcoming sub-groups:
  3. Work for next week:

Summary

EO convened and discussed comments made in response to the QuickStart Guide questions that Kevin posted to GitHub last week. As a result of the discussion, the following resolutions were made:

  1. Change tip to 'Provide sufficient contrast between colors'. Include additional
  2. Add in something like: 'The guidelines provide a minimum ratio and there are tools to help you determine the ratio'
  3. Keep 'Expand acronyms' and move it to last on list
  4. Use 'Keep content short and simple'
  5. Change sentence to 'Write in short, clear sentences and paragraphs, as appropriate for the context'
  6. Keep first two writing tips separate
  7. Consider 'short and simple', use 'clear', 'concise', or 'succinct' - or combination thereof - make GitHUb issue
  8. Stick with a consistent ordering
  9. Use link structure as in example 2, and raise any questions on labelling as they arise.
  10. Stick with including bad examples as well as good, where possible.
  11. Explore a show/hide option for examples; explore providing additional focus on tip heading and/or description and less focus drawn to the examples.

Kevin will collate resolutions and while the design aspects may take a bit more time, the text changes should be made early next week and review is welcome and encouraged. Shawn announced the formation of two subgroups. The first is a Task Force (TF) that will work on the Showcase Examples with Video. Thanks Brent for agreeing to be the TF facilitator. The other is an informal group that will update the policy document. Participation in both/either groups is open to EO participants, please step up if you would like to contribute. Eric reminded EO that an optional GitHub training will be held Monday, June 29th at 16 UTC. The meeting adjourned.

19 June Teleconference

Agenda

  1. QuickRef - fyi on user feedback sessions, 6 prototypes, videos and notes available, Eric & others will process and bring summary, proposals, and questions to the group
  2. Showcase Examples with Videos - Scenario Descriptions
  3. Tips

Work for following week

  • Showcase Examples with Videos feedback
  • Tips text

Summary

EOWG convened for the weekly teleconference to discuss and decide on the following:

  1. Quick Ref: Eric went to the Auto-WCAG workshops in Utrecht, Netherlands and was able to continue gathering feedback, similar to what we had done in Austin. This was a small but very enthusiastic group of mostly evaluators, who have all worked with WCAG quite a bit. Eric and Shadi will analyze results and bring proposals bask to EO next week. QuickRef feedback data are on wiki page and videos are available as well for those who are interested.
  2. Showcase Examples with Video: Shadi led the discussion of the feedback received in the survey and told the group that the survey would remain open for another week so please continue to consider and comment. The group considered whether important issues have all been addressed in these scenarios and how to maintain positive aspect. The following Resolutions were made:
    • RESOLUTION: Re: Emmanuelle "scenario about 2.4.6 and 1.4.8 (WCAG 2.0)" - weave into existing scenarios as they fit
    • RESOLUTION: ... make overall rosy. OK to include some negative. OK for some inconsistencies according to what would best for specific scenarios. (different perspectives in minutes)
  3. Mechanisms for providing feedback to editors: After a quick FYI that the QuickStart icons are being updated and revised, Shawn asked the group to consider how we are comfortable submitting comments to editors. She asked us to consider adopting methods that do not unduly burden the editor with extracting comments and/or documentation. Eric will conduct a GitHub training (we have opened a survey to choose a date for the GitHub training). Most of EO is comfortable with the weekly survey format but understand the difficulty of extracting specific edit comments from that format. Most have at least some familiarity with GitHub and are willing to try to use that to submit specific edit comments. Three open questions about Quick Tips edits are posted now on GitHub for people to practice on.

12 June 2015 Teleconference

Agenda

  1. QuickRef redesign - review updated prototype 1 and prototype 2 for user feedback next week. (fyi: Plans for user feedback)
  2. Tips text - update on status:
    • Changes related specifically to the tips have mostly been incorporated
    • Still exploring comments from specific people
    • Managing and Advocating are undergoing a quote a bit of a change so anything for this has not yet been included
  3. Tips icons - discuss Tips Icons survey results, thoughts on feedback has been captured in Issue 12
  4. Work for this weekend and next week:
  5. Moving teleconferences to WebEx - try it out now (if time) - note that you can download a client, but you don't have to - if you do, you can have it call you

Summary

EOWG convened to discuss and determine the following:

  1. QuickRef redesign: Eric presented two prototypes that he developed based on previous feedback. These will be used next week to gather further input from users at the AutoWCAG meeting. Based on today's discussion, Eric took several actions and will continue to offer options based on our feedback and that of the users he will observe next week.
  2. Comments for QuickStart Tips: Kevin has been working his way through comments related to tips that need to be added or removed as well as title edit suggestions. He is in touch with individuals as needed for clarification. Please keep comments coming in GitHub (preferred) or the survey.
  3. Iconography for Quick Start Tips: Group participants expressed enthusiastic approval of the general idea of iconography for the Tips and had a few suggestions for specific changes. Kevin will consider, revise, and bring back to the group as needed.
  4. Video Showcase examples: We will begin work soon on these and Shawn reminded the group to review and be sure we all understand the Requirements Analysis. EO should review the draft proposed Scenario Descriptions and complete the EOWG Survey on Showcase Examples. Shadi reminded us that these are not meant to be training but rather an introduction to the need for accessibility and to introduce people who may not have seen it of what assistive technologies do and how important it is to make materials accessible to AT. Links to the review material in the Agenda.

Finally, the group signed on to try a practice of the new WebEx meeting interface. Reminder that we will continue to use IRC and zakim for cue management, etc. WebEx will take the place of the phone only. Download the client if you want the app to call you tollfree. Otherwise, dial in. Thanks all, meeting adjourned until next week.

Agenda

  1. Quick Start Tips
  2. QuickRef redesign - fyi on status
  3. Providing feedback on drafts-in-progress
    • Using Github
    • Feedback on Quick Start Tips at this stage - prefer Github or survey; wiki OK if needed.
    • other...

Summary

EOWG convened and dscussed the following:

  1. Quick Start Tips: Discussion centered around comments submitted in survey and on GitHub related to titling the sub-pages, content overlaps between sections, and navigation, (specifically whether the content should remain in the current WAI site page wrapper). Suggestions were made, preferences expressed without reaching consensus so Kevin will take suggestions into consideration for next iteration. EO participants are asked to stay alert to ongoing work.
  2. QuickRef redesign: Eric is working on a more interactive mockup for the group to explore, is happy with the direction prompted by user feedback sessions, and will have more for group input next week.
  3. Teleconference change: zakim is going away sometime near the end of June to be replaced by WebEx as a temporary solution.
  4. Comment submission: In early draft stage, we have been collecting feedback via the weekly survey and the wiki. As the draft becomes more robust it is moved to Github which then becomes the preferred mode. A GitHub tutorial will be arranged in the next couple of weeks as a refresher for EO participants. For those who do not like using wiki or GitHub, email to the list is always an option.

Agenda

  1. F2F and informal usability testing debrief
  2. Quick Start Tips - discuss:
    • First impressions of Quick Start Tips overview page. Is more info needed?
    • Titles of tips pages in overview page and of the pages themselves (e.g., "Design Tips" and "Accessibility Tips for Design")
    • EOWG input on specific tips (who's done, who can do more, etc.?)
  3. Image transcriber(s) needed
  4. Work for next week - Draft Weekly Survey

Summary

EOWG met and discussed the following:

  1. F2F and informal tools testing: The feedback received from AccessU participants was the main topic of the F2F in Austin last week as well as brief discussion of video production analysis and requirements. F2F minutes 13 May. F2F minutes 14 May
  2. Current status of Roadmap: Kevin reported that he had prioritized changes to navigation, iconography, text structure based on feedback received. he welcomes further Roadmap review and comment on the wiki.
  3. WCAG-EM Report Tool: Not much discussion since lead editor Wilco is no longer resourced to the project. We need a volunteer to transcribe the photos taken of whiteboard comments. Sharron will request that.
  4. QuickRef redesign: Eric has begun documenting the feedback and sharing it with WCAG. In response to the dissatisfaction expressed in the feedback about basing the tool on filters and the WCAG structure, Eric and Shadi have suggested using tags to filter the references. Mock up of possible future direction.
  5. QuickStart Tips: The landing page and sub pages were reviewed for first response. QT landing page in GitHub. Appreciation of simplicity with suggestions for iconography and a request to consider removing the resource from the WAI navigation frame which was seen to be distracting. Need EO input on content of Tips

The meeting adjourned after discussion of updates to the weekly survey, which Sharron will complete and notify EO of availability.

Agenda

  1. QuickRef Redesign - status of quickref survey results
  2. Quick Start Guides/Tips - discuss Feedback from survey (audiences, approach, and (if time) specifics for Designer, Developer, Author, Advocate, Manager)
  3. Usability testing in May in Austin

Summary

First the group discussed the the QuickRef redesign prototype, processing the comments from the weekly survey. Shadi got clarification from the group discussion to take to Eric for the next iteration. The plan is to have a robust prototype to use at AccessU and gather feedback from the community. Next Kevin took the group through the changes he has made to the QuickStart Tips. Kevin had boiled comments down to three categories for discussion:

  1. Audience can be enlarged to include QA - OR - is a better approach to task rather than role based guidance?
  2. Level of detail becomes an issue because of the variation in technical support needed for different task.
  3. Scope of guidance offered, is the Why necessary in a Quick Guide and what will be the role of iconography?

The decision was made to leave the survey open for another week to allow participants to continue to refine or add comments. Shawn reminded everyone to offer their thoughts and availability to support the user testing/feedback gathering at AccessU. Your thoughts about user testing participation are encouraged in the EO wiki.

Agenda

  1. Web Accessibility Roadmap prototype for informal usability testing in May - discuss roadmap mock-up survey results
  2. Usability Testing Planning - discuss Description
  3. QuickRef prototype (to be updated Friday morning) for informal usability testing in May - initial reactions to latest mock-up
  4. 2015 Charter update - update on re-presenting deliverables

Summary

EOWG reviewed the progress that Eric and Kevin have made on the Road Map. Shawn expressed thanks to all 11 (!) people who answered the survey with such short notice. The group expressed the following:

Web Accessibility Road Map

  • Strong preference for list rather than grid layout.
  • Need to document behavior in various browsers
  • Need to broaden the inquiry, taking the prototypes to usability testing in Austin next month.

Quick Ref Mock-Up

EOWG noted many changes and overall voiced strong approval as a first reaction (with the understanding that close review and documentation of findings will be possible in next week's survey.)

  • Noted how it is opened up, inviting exploration
  • Facilitates moving back and forth between this page and supporting info
  • Not yet agreed on where to move supporting resource list when veiwport narrows - some prefer to the right, others to the bottom.
  • There are questions about the funnel icon for filtering.
  • Treatment of the filtered search items also need to be addressed - what they will be called and how they will be referenced.
  • A request was made to anchor the toolbar once more at the top.
  • Some changes may be needed to the Show/Hide labeling
  • All applauded the improvements - bravo!

Shawn requested input from the group for the informal usability study to be conducted at AccessU. Please put your ideas in the Testing Planning wiki very soon as the outreach is needed ASAP. Finally, EOWG considered the new group Charter, asked a few questions about terms and overall expressed their comfort and approval of the document. Shawn asked that they register their opinions both in the meeting minutes and in the weekly survey, thanked everyone and adjourned the meeting.

  3. Quick Start Guides - introduce new deliverable for initial feedback on requirements/analysis (or, what is this anyway?!?)
  4. Videos - introduce new deliverable for initial feedback on requirements/analysis.

Summary

Eric began by thanking EO participants for feedback and addressed concerns some had about Search function and making the filters vs search term results more clear. In considering the informal usability testing that will be done at the F2F in May, questions arose about how to make people aware of the opportunity, when to alert them, whether to let potential participants know about tools in advance, and when to post the information. Shawn asked everyone to add ideas for usability testing to the EO wiki. Kevin then introduced the group to the Requirements Analysis for the Quick Start Guides which started lively discussion. EO remembered the business card sized QuickTips for WCAG 1 and brainstormed ways to incorproate the qualities that made this so appealing as the Quick Start Guides are developed to help people get a jumpstart on accessibility related to their role. Melody suggested the need to communicate the life cycle of going through these tools and where would they fit in the work cycle of each role. She agreed to work on that taxonomy and to talk with AnnaBelle who has had similar suggestions. Contribute to the wiki and/or on the weekly survey, and thanks to all.

    • Any comments on draft agenda?
    • Any concerns with allowing non-participant observers?
  4. Upcoming work - note current EOWG deliverables planning and upcoming/future weeks below
  5. Weekly survey is ready for your comments on "work for this week":

Summary

The weekly meeting convened with a review of the comments made by EO participants about the progress on the QuickRef redesign prototype. Eric noted that several design comments would be tabled for later discussion and focused on the concept and execution of "presets." Eric explained that it was meant to provide tailored presentation of the content for those who may be new to the field or have a very specific narrow focus. Filters would then be set to help these audiences. Comments were mostly favorable but some concern was expressed about 1. whether they would actually be used and 2. the technical difficulty of creating them. Eric will analyze effort and report back.

Next was consideration of Kevin's work on the Planning Guide. EO brainstormed use cases and titles, agreeing that the Guide was not highly "dynamic" and so advised against the use of that word in the title. Kevin will review the minutes and make a determination. Discussion of the agenda for the upcoming face-to-face EO meeting led to an agreement to allow non-EO participation if conference attendees wanted to observe. Shawn and other WAI team members that are going to AccessU will meet separately to work out logistics. Shawn announced that she had posted upcoming EO work which does not require review at this time but is posted for those who wish to look further ahead. Howard reminded everyone of the 25 April deadline for speaker paper submission for Accessing Higher Ground. Discussion of a possible second face to face in November in Boulder Colorado concluded with the fact that for most of EO it was highly dependent on funding. Submission of papers is encouraged with the understanding that if funding is not secured, papers may be withdrawn as long as it is done with plenty of advance notice.

  3. Page Structure Tutorial content review survey - Please complete your thorough review and the survey by Monday 23 March, or let us know if you need more time.

Summary

The main topic for discussion was the Dynamic Planning Guide. Thanks to all who completed the survey. Kevin reviewed the comments and asked everyone to confirm their perspectives on general tone and whether the categories are useful and accurate. Most people expressed their preference for the removal of the Overview panel, replacing it with a short intro paragraph. Some hesitation about the current presentation was voiced however since without the Overview, there may not be enough information to orient people to the purpose and function of the tool. For example, in the Initiation panel - Initiation of what or to what? "What you need to do" - to accomplish what? Kevin will consider this need in the next round of review, keeping in mind the caution against being TOO proscriptive. Category titles were reviewed and discussed; more action oriented titles were suggested -Initiate rather than Initiation, for example. It was suggested that a more role-based alternative to access the content was needed. Some ideas related to this seem out of current scope and Melody will help integrate an approach that would provide alternative routes to tasks while remaining within scope for this specific tool. Finally the group considered the comment some tasks seemed "pigeon-holed" into one category when they could easily be included in several (procurement for example.) The group discussed the fact in creating categories, there will be sub topics that fall across more than one and asked Kevin to be mindful of it in developing referencing strategies.

Discussion of face to face meetings included: conformation of a meeting Austin in May; probably not going to get quorum to Japan for TPAC; possibility of meeting in Colorado in November around Accessing Higher Ground. Everyone is asked to update your face-to face availability. Finally, a reminder that the deadline for completing a very thorough content review of the Page Structure tutorial is Monday 23 March. If EO participants cannot complete by then, let Shawn know and the time can be extended. Work for this week is posted.

Summary

Shawn started the meeting with the acknowledgement that in the rush to get items reveiwed for CSUN we may have tabled issues that people want to bring to group attention. She encouraged everyone to raise those issues now as we prepare for the next round of reviews and other EO work. For the next round of tutorial review, the following process change is to be implemented: During the first review round please try to suggest any and all significant content changes. In that way the final round will be polishing/word-smithing only and will reduce the number of review cycles needed.

Surveys:

The group then debriefed from CSUN with particular discussion of the WCAG session (well-received). Brent noted the general agreement by the end of the talk that the supporting documents were becoming more helpful and general appreciation of the tutorials as a useful resource. Finally the group spoke briefly about the May F2F. Sharron will follow up on the availability of people to meet on Thursday.

27 February Teleconference

Agenda

  1. Tables Tutorial
  2. WCAG-EM Report Tool
  3. (if time) QuickRef rough/early draft mockup - discuss potential changes needed before CSUN

Summary

The meeting focused on reviewing EO comments related to final revision of WAI materials. Comments were collected in a series of questionnaires. The goal was to ensure group understanding and the disposition of comments to allow publication of resources. Discussion of the icons and Table titles led to the resolution to accept the wording for table titles approved in the questionnaire. Additionally the group agreed to bring wording from the Concepts page over into the sub-pages for clarity of the meaning of the icons within the context of sub-pages. EO passed resolutions to publish the tables Tutorial and the WC-EM Report Tool v1.

Discussion of the recently presented QuickRef mock-up recognized that if the document was to be featured in a CSUN talk next week, even briefly, there would be increased attention to it. Therefore the group took some time to clarify the status as an early draft for anyone who came exploring and to point to the existing QuickRef as a the current definitive resource. The main meeting was adjourned and a few stayed behind to talk about the presentation next week that will feature that resources and other recent WAI work.

Agenda

  1. Tutorials
  2. WCAG-EM Report Tool - Reminder to complete survey before Tue 24 Feb
    • Listing updates planned and questions. Collecting input/feedback.
  3. QuickRef mockup - discuss updated mockup, QuickRef comments in weekly survey

Summary

The meeting began with a quick review for Eric of the changes he had made to the Images and Forms tutorials as a result of the inut from group survey data. The next discussion of the Tables Tutorial centered on the naming convention for the types of tables. There are differences in how EO participants understand the current names and the relation to the accessibility issues specific to each type. Eric will review the different POVs and make another pass at naming them. The review of these changes is quite time sensitive and EO is asked to stay alert to posted changes and respond to survey requests. The WCAG-EM Report tool is nearing completion. Questions remain about naming it Beta or v1 since we know there will continue to be improvements. There is a survey now open on this, please respond. Additionally the question is on the table for how to collect public input as the tool is released and used. Possibilities include GitHub, the wiki, blog posts and email. Strong support for putting a notice on the tool similar to the one on the tutorials to indicate WAI's eagerness for input and directions for providing them. Shawn ended by asking everyone to check in on current surveys and complete them as soon as possible.

Agenda

  1. Surveys for publication approval
    • Forms and Images Tutorials changes - ready! please complete by Thur 19 Feb or let us know if you need more time
    • WCAG-EM Report Tool - ready! please complete before Tue 24 Feb or let us know if you need more time
    • Tables Tutorial - waiting for WCAG WG review on Tue 17. (if you have any comments now, please file them in Github)
  2. Planning Guide
  3. QuickRef rough/early draft prototype - share initial reactions, QuickRef comments in this week's survey

Summary

Shawn thanked everyone who was able to complete the weekly survey and announced the following:

  • Forms and Images Tutorials survey changes implemented, survey ready! Please complete by Thur 19 Feb or let us know if you need more time
  • WCAG-EM Report Tool survey - ready! Please complete before Tue 24 Feb or let us know if you need more time
  • Tables Tutorial - waiting for WCAG WG review on Tue 17, then look for survey. (if you have any comments now, please file them in Github)

Next was discussion of the Dynamic Planning Guide. There was general appreciation for the mock-up but some confusion about the intent of the tool and its ultimate purpose. Kevin said the broad intent was to incorporate some of the functionality suggested in the Strategic Planning Guide while also linking to other resources. Paul has concerns about leading people to documents that are too text heavy and will send a suggested approach by email to the editor's list. Brent observed the close alignment of the categorizations to the classic training for Project Manager Certification. Discussion led to the conclusion that while the Guide is meant to support PMs there is another primary audience of those who may be advocates or managers and that will be kept in mind during development. Now is the time to provide input while there is the most flexibility in design choices, naming conventions, and title.

Finally the group considered the very early, very rough draft of the QuickRef redesign based on the earlier QuickRef analysis performed by EO. EO is pleased that this is on the table again and registered the fact that the document seems quite "vertical" at this point and needs immediate consideration of expand/collapse and other functions to address that. In addition was expressed a desire for the ability to toggle A, AA, and AAA considerations within each section. The meeting closed with open areas of discussion. Wayne will list places in WAI documents where magnification is cited as the primary access method of people with low vision and expressed his satisfaction with the way longdesc is now addressed in the tutorials.

Summary

The meeting began with an introduction to the group of new participant Melody Ma. Everyone introduced themselves and welcomed Melody to our group. The majority of the meeting was focused on finalizing the WCAG-EM Report Tool for publication by March 2 in time for CSUN. After much discussion of the question of visibility of bulleted intro information, renaming the "Tips..." section, the explanation of the "Save" functionality, and the back and forth between Steps 2 and 3, Shadi felt he had enough understanding of group preferences to take back to work with Wilco on a final v1.

Shawn made the following announcements:

  • The updated EO charter is submitted for W3C AC review and the Deliverable section is updated with work for next 2 years.
  • There is a draft plan for an EO face to face meeting on the EO wiki.
  • Volunteers needed to do a review of the new Mobile Accessibility Public Working Draft (Lydia, Brent, Wayne, Jon, and Melody agreed to perform high level review.)
  • Several approval to publish questionnaires will be coming before the CSUN conference, so EO needs to be alert and finish those as quickly as possible.

As time ran out, we tabled the discussion of the Dynamic Planning Tool and a sub-group remained after adjournment to discuss Wayne's concerns with the treatment of longdesc in the tutorials and how the editors would address those concerns.

30 January Teleconference

Agenda

  1. Task Sorting activity - brief debrief on results. (background: Planning personas, Tasks and Content Analysis)
  2. Tutorials - work for today and this week:
  3. Potential face-to-face in Austin, TX in May at AccessU (Availability for possible EOWG face-to-face meetings in 2015)

Summary

The EOWG convened to review the task sorting exercise completed by participants during this week. Kevin reported that there was more divergence than he had hoped and several people volunteered to finds others to complete the task sorting and add to the data. Next Shawn asked everyone to review the list of Images changes and Forms changes. Once your review is complete, please take the Approval to Publish Survey. Wayne was unsatisfied with how the tutorial addresses longdesc and Shadi asked for more discussion about the misunderstandings around the treatment of longdesc. Shawn suggested that we complete the current agenda and leave the longdesc further discussion for the end of the meeting as an optional topic, allowing others to leave and do the review and survey as needed. The next topic was the Face to Face meeting for EO participants. We will NOT meet at CSUN this year but are still considering a meeting at AccessU in Austin. Howard also offered meeting space at Accessing Higher Ground in November in Boulder. The optional longdesc description centered around varied understanding of how browsers render the longdesc attribute. Wayne is not satisfied that the tutorials treat the subject with sufficient thoroughness and feels there may be an even larger issue. He agreed to do one more careful review considering Shadi's clarification and continue the discussion online and next week.

Agenda

  1. WCAG-EM Report Tool - Confirm decisions based on input from Weekly Survey, 20 January
  2. Introduction to Task Sorting exercise Categorizing, grouping and refining project management tasks and categories, Background: Planning personas, Tasks and Content Analysis

Summary

The EOWG convened this week to discuss the feedback received from the group concerning the option to publish the WCAG-EM report tool. Three questions were asked of the group with the following outcomes:

  1. Can the font sizing and scalability issues be sufficiently addressed with the current code library? / Group: Yes, no need to change.
  2. Does the menu bar need to change and/or float? / Group: No change to menu or float but add a shortcut key for Save, a prompt on the button, and a short explanation
  3. Should the Sep2 and Step 3 pages of the WCAG-EM report tool be merged due to the need to move back and forth between them? / Group: Leave as is for now and get user data to consider a change in v2.

The meeting adjourned with a reminder to update availability for teleconferences and F2F and to check the wiki for next week's work.

16 January Teleconference

Agenda

  1. Tutorials - Confirm decisions from Weekly Survey, 13 January
  2. Tutorials color changes - Review design changes.
    • Current Version
    • New Version
    • Changes:
      • Added color to the left navigation (red instead of gray squares, blue instead of gray list headings).
      • Added color to the right in-page navigation (blue border and heading instead of … you guessed it … gray).
      • Changed link color to blue in the content area (not from gray).
      • Removed the white box around “Related WCAG resources” (to gray ;-).
  3. EOWG working together - how is "Work for this Week" now?

Summary

The EOWG convened to review the survey data from the weekly questionnaire and confirm the decisions made related to adding accessible solutions to Images cover page; relationship of the tutorials to WCAG2.0 and Techniques; and the Tutorial permalinks. After consideration of survey data and discussion, EO agreed to:

  • Leave the title of the Images Tutorial unchanged
  • Add more context to the tutorial cover page explaining the relationship to WCAG 2.0.
  • Change the Permalink icon to a Share icon with limited sharing options.
  • Approved color changes

The group then reviewed the new work flow focused on using the questionnaires for input. Most like the new organization of work, Brent noted that the in-person orientation was more useful than the written materials, and the discussion of possible Face to Face meetings tended to settle on Austin in May around AccessU. Shawn reminded everyone to keep current on availability surveys and adjourned.

9 January 2015 Teleconference

Agenda

  1. Tables tutorial
    Feedback from Sailesh Panchang is in these two email threads: (1) (2).
    Discuss:
  2. Tutorials review - by when can you complete them?
  3. EOWG awesome in 2015

Summary

The EOWG meeting was convened to review the editor's resolution of previous issues with the Tables tutorial based on EO survey input, to confirm the process of tutorial review in general, and to set expectations for how EO will work in 2015. Shawn and Eric resolved to check on how they respond to public comments on the tutorials and how to formally to do that going forward. In review our work processes, EO participants indicated a desire to have "Work for the week" posted to the wiki and pointed to in the weekly email reminder, but not duplicated in each place. Surveys are agreed to be a good way to communicate and minimize the time needed in meetings. Jan introduced a need within her company for a simplified way to communicate the impact of different levels of conformance on real people. Jan will work with Wayne and Sharron to define a deliverable and bring for group consideration. Recognizing that the friendliness and camaraderie of this group is one of its strong points, we agreed to agreed to leave sharing time at the end of teleconference meetings as time allows. Please plan to bring personal stories related to your accessibility experience and work to those sessions. With that in mind and as we use the surveys to become more efficient, we will try to stay focused on main business discussions within the teleconference in recognition of the volume of work coming our way.
