Topic: Selecting Web Accessibility Evaluation Tools
13:44:47 [Justin]
Shadi: While the structure stayed the same...I reworded a lot. As I worked on strategies for selecting it became its out section.
13:45:43 [Justin]
Shadi: If we can go at the last section I have grouped and worked some of the items that to me make some more sense...I would be interested in hearing people comments.
13:46:42 [Justin]
Shadi: In the considerations section I have added some examples, a little bit of users, and how it fits in the process.
13:46:57 [Justin]
Judy: Brief general reactions?
13:48:35 [Justin]
Henk: In the top navigation bar, most of the links are not numbered except one.
13:50:54 [rcastaldo]
I've read section 1, and I do like it
13:52:06 [Justin]
Henk: We are not evaluating the checks we are evaluating the web sites. Would it be better to say to help users preform web accessibility checks.
13:52:30 [Justin]
Henk: I struggled with the second section of the intro.
13:53:49 [Andrew]
s/section/sentence/
13:54:47 [Justin]
Shadi: Evaluation reviews
13:54:54 [Justin]
Henk: That would work.
13:56:08 [Justin]
Henk: In what eval tools can't do...there is the word in the last sentence....precise results or accurate results. Which is better?
13:56:35 [Justin]
Judy: I am concerned with overall that that sentence is very discouraging.
13:56:35 [Andrew]
"accurate" is better
13:57:12 [Justin]
Judy: It looks too exclusive.
13:57:33 [Justin]
Judy: Whats the main thing we are trying to communicate?
13:57:52 [Justin]
Wayne: Is this trying to say that the user has to pay attention to learning the limitations of the tool that they use?
13:58:01 [Justin]
Shadi: Yes
13:58:14 [Justin]
Shadi: it is a tool and it needs to be used correctly.
13:58:58 [Justin]
Henk: I do agree with Judy...we have to deal with the two ends....there is no tool with which you can check and repair your whole site with everything.
14:00:12 [Justin]
Wayne: In that sentence...there maybe a skilll requirement to use some tools effectively.
14:00:30 [Justin]
Shadi: correct, i don't know any tool that doesn't require some skill.
14:01:16 [Justin]
Judy: Section 2 - considerations
14:03:24 [shadi]
s/skill/skills - or basic understanding
14:04:03 [Justin]
Andrew: I think this needs a little bit of copy editing...but its good
14:04:23 [Justin]
Wayne: The organization was explained. These are the big things we want people to think about.
14:04:47 [Justin]
not really
14:05:41 [rcastaldo]
It looks fine and language sounds plain
14:06:56 [Justin]
Judy: I am not sure where to fit this in. The size of this document is a little overwhelming. I keep worrying about an individual who is looking for quick things and lands in this. I don't know if there is anything....the intro is very well broken out.
14:07:12 [Justin]
Judy: In considerations...maybe those need to be h3's
14:07:29 [Justin]
agreed
14:07:37 [Justin]
h3's would help
14:08:42 [Justin]
Shawn: I had the same reaction when i tried to skim it. We talked about short slide set about these documents. It would be good to give people a version where its quick and link to more details.
14:09:43 [Justin]
Shadi: are the titles for the overall sections...are those descriptive enough...that a experienced user would jump to features. Can we play with the in page navigation?
14:10:37 [Justin]
Wayne: Being able to navigate to the places is the trick here.
14:10:54 [Justin]
Wayne: The content looks like the write stuff if your looking for a tool.
14:11:09 [Justin]
Henk: the content is not the problem...but the formatting is an issue for me.
14:12:04 [Justin]
Judy: shadi, maybe you can use the h3s and see how you react to the titles.
14:12:16 [Justin]
Judy: Section 3 - Characteristics
14:14:58 [Justin]
zakim, please unmute me
14:14:58 [Zakim]
Justin should no longer be muted
14:15:38 [Justin]
Henk: in page feed back tools...last sentence use maybe and some.
14:17:22 [Justin]
Andrew: I had a problem with that sentence also
14:17:42 [Justin]
Shadi: The sequence in which the table cells are perceived....
14:18:48 [Justin]
Wayne: maybe features might be a little bit better and a little more plain language.
14:19:41 [Justin]
Henk: You might have one tool with many features...a tool with wizard interface feature
14:19:55 [Justin]
zakim, please mute me
14:19:55 [Zakim]
Justin should now be muted
14:20:13 [Justin]
zakim, please unmute me
14:20:13 [Zakim]
Justin should no longer be muted
14:21:03 [Justin]
Shadi: I need some more discussion
14:21:19 [Justin]
Judy: Tools that generate reports
14:21:45 [Justin]
Wayne: What if you dropped off tools?
14:23:07 [Justin]
Shadi: It was exactly like that before....in the previous version I was approaching this from the user interface...now i realize its about the characteristics.
14:25:34 [Justin]
Henk: the word mediate is off.
14:25:50 [Justin]
Judy: The sentence is still kind of complex
14:26:30 [rcastaldo]
I have to leave the call for few minutes
14:26:33 [Justin]
Judy: Section 4
14:26:39 [Justin]
zakim, please mute me
14:26:39 [Zakim]
Justin should now be muted
14:27:23 [Justin]
Shadi: Is it easy to skim?
14:27:25 [Wayne]
II need to leave early now, goodbye
14:27:36 [Justin]
bye Wayne
14:27:44 [Zakim]
-Wayne
14:28:08 [Justin]
Shadi: If i can some more comments on the structure rather then the content
14:31:01 [Justin]
Henk: We need more white space
14:31:03 [rcastaldo]
I'm back
14:31:45 [Justin]
Henk: Reliability...false negatives and positives seemed like they are switched.
14:32:19 [Justin]
Henk: How about reporting false failures?
14:32:51 [Justin]
Henk: second explanation...detecting wrong ones, its reporting false failures
14:34:19 [Justin]
Shawn: Rather then going into the details of which is which....what if just sayed false negative or false positives and then here are the examples
14:34:57 [Andrew]
Judy (and Andrew agreed) that the terms are used correctly
14:34:57 [Justin]
Judy: We could just give the examples and not use the terms.
14:35:31 [Justin]
Judy: Its a strong concept that seems to resonate with people.
14:35:57 [Justin]
shadi: How about examples, then the terms
14:38:12 [Justin]
Andrew: Under checkpoint coverage...the whole idea of spidering seems to have been dropped.
14:39:11 [Justin]
Shadi: I was having difficulties with where to place that. its a more overaching issue.
14:39:39 [Justin]
Shadi; I grant your point about manual checkpoint coverage could be reworked...to reflect how tools can help.
14:42:06 [shadi]
