2. Relating Showcase videos to WCAG

In the weekly EOWG teleconference, the question was raised about the relationship of the video topics to WCAG requirements for accessibility. Some topics, like keyboard accessibility, can be directly mapped to WCAG. For other topics, like plain language and large click areas, the relationship is implied rather than explicit. Please review the discussion in today's minutes and consider the importance of this question in determining whether (or not) to include the less directly referenced topics.

Summary

ChoiceAll responders
Results
I strongly feel that topics should not be included if they are not directly referenced in WCAG. Please indicate which topics you feel should be removed and why.
Accessibility is the point, these are important issues that should be included with links to supporting WAI materials. 7
I have mixed feeling and have discussed them below.
I have no opinion and will pass on this question and go with the decision of the group.

Responder Relating Showcase videos to WCAGComments
George Heake Accessibility is the point, these are important issues that should be included with links to supporting WAI materials.
Shawn Lawton Henry A specific thought I had: text customization is clearly covered in UAAG 2.0 and I think it should be included in the "showcase examples with videos". (It might also be covered more in a WCAG extension.)

[UAAG coverage includes "...The user can set text scale, color, style, line spacing, and font family globally (1.4.1, Level A)..." at <https://www.w3.org/TR/UAAG20/#gl-text-config> and there are a few more in other sections.]
Susan Hewitt Accessibility is the point, these are important issues that should be included with links to supporting WAI materials.
James Green Accessibility is the point, these are important issues that should be included with links to supporting WAI materials.
Brent Bakken Accessibility is the point, these are important issues that should be included with links to supporting WAI materials. Accessibility is about more than just the Guidelines. This is not a video showcase specifically about meeting WCAG 2.0 so I think there is affordance to address accessibility and usability.
Andrew Arch Accessibility is the point, these are important issues that should be included with links to supporting WAI materials.
Kevin White Accessibility is the point, these are important issues that should be included with links to supporting WAI materials.
Sharron Rush Accessibility is the point, these are important issues that should be included with links to supporting WAI materials.

Andrew Arch I reviewed it and put Comments below that need to be addressed before it is published as a draft. Editors' discretion, but should be considered:
3.4.3 'rivers of 'white' issue should be split off and placed under 3.2
consider cross referencing 3.4.6 with 3.6.2

Brent Bakken I have added a couple of issues in GitHub. I don't feel they need to be addressed before FPWD. One other question I had; will there be any techniques or recommendations spelled out as to how to address or implement the User Needs outlined in the green boxes? Will there be information about "what" to do?

Document looks good so far.
Andrew Arch 3.7.2 - some people also prefer to use their own text magnifier device than than browser based magnifications, especially for longer pages/documents (e.g. http://shop.rnib.org.uk/magnification.html?dir=desc&order=price#maincontent)
