Should be simple, e.g., "WCAG conformant when tech A, B, and C supported". In metadata if we have metadata conformance claims. In prose if we have prose conformance claims. 22:42:30 q+ 22:42:52 ack yvette 22:43:30 Wendy, I still do not have a definete idea. So, I select "pass". 22:43:35 yh: if a site presumes IE...think claims should be based on technology not user agents. One assumption of accessibility is not assuming what technology your user has. 22:43:42 takayuki - ok 22:43:50 -Takayuki 22:43:54 yh: think many orgs will not make conformance claim, otherwise will make them liable. 22:44:04 q- takayuki 22:44:05 hand up 22:44:18 doyle - you are on the q twice 22:44:22 ack john_sl 22:44:43 js: assuming wcag does not specify a baseline, then conformance claim has to make statement about what techs the content supports. 22:45:09 js: agree info should be requested in simplest form. 22:45:18 js: agree, about technologies not UAs. 22:45:31 js: people can add UA info, don't prevent them. 22:45:35 ack Dave_Ma 22:45:52 dmd: agree, need a baseline statement in a conformance claim. provide a template. 22:46:24 dmd: don't know that we can easily say that you won't be assuming specific UAs, if go back to IE3, make certain assumptions. 22:46:52 ack Matt 22:47:04 m3m: agree, don't tie to specific UAs. 22:47:20 m3m: browsecap.ini enumerated all capabilities of every browser. had to be udpated every week. 22:47:59 ack andi 22:48:30 asw: agree, listing the techs as part of conf claim. agree, specify level of tech (or version?). agree, can spec UA but don't require. 22:48:30 Q+ does any common browser fully support std technologies (html, xhtml, css) 22:48:45 asw: like template idea 22:48:51 ack neil 22:49:06 q+ 22:49:19 ns: ppl likely to use a tool, like bobby, to claim conformance. w/a movable baseline, how will tools claim wcag conformance? 22:49:30 ns: create checkboxes? create own baseline? 22:49:41 ns: does WCAG 1.0 have a conformance claim that ppl make? 22:50:42 ack loretta 22:51:02 lgr: checking tools do have implicit baseline, perhaps be good if they made that implicit. 22:51:27 lgr: agree, specify by tech, not UA. however, requirements often based on UAs that need to support. 22:51:37 lgr: useful to have info about which UAs support which techs. 22:51:58 lgr: however, ack matt's comment about how often that info changes. 22:52:01 ack becky 22:52:07 bg: agree, spec by tech. 22:52:17 bg: optionally, UA and AT tested with. 22:52:42 bg: consider "audience" - u.s.-only or britain-only...may have useful implications. probably not required. 22:52:54 bg: ppl assuming UAs all the day. accept that happening today. 22:52:59 ack doyle 22:53:03 ack doyle 22:53:38 db: perhaps do a "feature match" - commonalities between user agents. 22:54:04 db: don't think bulk of orgs will publish the fact that they conform. 22:54:21 db: wonder about ppl who post logos and how many of them conform. 22:54:35 ack jason 22:55:08 jw: position sent to mailing list. should be minimal conditions for a tech to be used in conforming content. 22:55:29 jw: min info required to enable 3rd party to verify if the claim is true. 22:55:43 jw: names, versions of techs that are required. 22:56:01 jw: that should be sufficient. optionally: enable additional info about other assumptions. 22:56:23 jw: important to allow ppl to link to baselines isntead of including them in the conformance claim directly. 22:56:38 jw: commonly used ones, could be provided in guide or whichever doc we choose. 22:56:52 zakim, unmute me 22:56:52 Makoto should no longer be muted 22:56:55 ack makoto 22:57:22 mu: more difficult for developers to claim conformance. especially in non-english-speaking countries e.g., japan, korea, china. 22:57:34 mu: need UA support info and simple guidelines for authors to claim conformance. 22:57:42 ack bengt 22:57:48 zakim, mute me 22:57:48 Makoto should now be muted 22:57:56 bf: agree, tech instead of UA 22:58:44 bf: confused about baseline. if set profile for different user groups. e.g., cognitive may have one type of profile. 22:58:51 bf: that would match the audience you are looking for. 22:59:36 bf: something about IE and non-supported tech... 22:59:43 ack wendy 23:00:12 q+ 23:00:17 ack gregg 23:00:24 zakijm, unmute me 23:00:37 zakim, unmute me 23:00:37 Yvette_Hoitink was not muted, Yvette_Hoitink 23:00:38 wac: this feedback will be used to create summary and hopefully proposal to be sent by next tuesday. 23:00:47 gv: seems to be more consensus than i would have guessed. 23:01:23 s/ last implicit to explicit ?/ 23:02:20 gv: talking about techs vs browsers - is there at least one implementation for every technology. if did state UA, would need to state version, security patches, etc. 23:03:15 gv: had lots of reports today. the summary seems to be: lots of work to do. the conclusion about "no baseline in guidelines document itself" seems to hold (not collapse). however, lots of exploration still needed. 23:03:37 gv: haven't found a reason not to include this direction, have lots of work before are successfully heading in this direction. 23:04:31 js: what is in the pipeline for next week? 4.2 (lgr, et al), conformance claims (wac, et al), techniques (bc, mc, bg), defn of terms (editors) 23:04:40 ack yvette 23:04:58 yh: like the round robin approach. nice to hear more ppl's opinions than usual. 23:05:06 yh: like to hear from everyone. 23:05:29 gv: we'll use the technique for big issues. in general, try to focus on ppl preparing info in advance. 23:05:29 -Michael_Cooper 23:06:39 -Andi 23:06:41 -John_Slatin 23:06:44 -Becky_Gibson 23:06:45 -Dave_MacDonald 23:06:45 -Matt 23:06:47 -Ben_and_Gregg 23:06:48 -Wendy 23:06:50 -Neil_Soiffer 23:06:51 -Loretta_Guarino_Reid 23:06:52 -Yvette_Hoitink 23:06:53 -Doyle_Burnett 23:06:53 -Makoto 23:06:55 -Bengt_Farre 23:07:05 bengt has left #wai-wcag 23:07:11 ben has left #wai-wcag 23:07:16 -JasonWhite 23:07:17 WAI_WCAG()4:00PM has ended 23:07:18 Attendees were Bengt_Farre, Makoto, Wendy, Ben_and_Gregg, Michael_Cooper, John_Slatin, Dave_MacDonald, Yvette_Hoitink, Matt, Neil_Soiffer, Loretta_Guarino_Reid, Becky_Gibson, Andi, 23:07:20 ...
