<Al> Wendy, would you get Zakim to call me when the 'hotkey requirements' agenda item is coming up?

<wendy> sure

<scribe> scribe: ben

issue: how/where to include technology version information?

<scribe> ACTION: becky to propose introduction text for javascript techniques that described default level of JavaScript for examples [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-wai-wcag-minutes.html#action01]

<scribe> ACTION: becky propose introduction text for javascript techniques that described default level of JavaScript for examples [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-wai-wcag-minutes.html#action02]

resolution: use proposed "baseline implications" from http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2005JulSep/att-0345/preventAlerts.html as a model for including baseline information

<scribe> ACTION: becky to include technique for preventing non-essential interruptions in next script techniques draft [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-wai-wcag-minutes.html#action03]

resolution: include proposed technique for preventing non-essential interruptions in next script techniques draft

<scribe> ACTION: becky to determine what the relationship between DOM level and JavaScript version is [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-wai-wcag-minutes.html#action04]

discussing tests 111, 112, 113, 203 and 114 - http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2005JulSep/0388.html

cr: propose combining tests 111 and 151 into "All data tables have a summary or caption"

<wendy> http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml2/mod-tables.html#edef_tables_summary

<wendy> For tables, visual user agents allow sighted people to quickly grasp the structure of the table from the headings as well as the caption. A consequence of this is that captions will often be inadequate as a summary of the purpose and structure of the table from the perspective of people relying on non-visual user agents.

<wendy> (from - http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml2/mod-tables.html#sec_29.1.)

issue: how do test cases relate to conformance? (seems to be a stumbling block for discussion of tests)

<scribe> ACTION: michael and wendy to raise issue of how tests relate to conformance w/ editors group [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-wai-wcag-minutes.html#action05]

Hotkey requirements http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2005JulSep/0396.html

resolution: 06 data tables require summary or caption which describes nature fo table; use this instead of headers01 (title would not be a recommended strategy)

<scribe> ACTION: chris summarize today's discussion tests wrt caption and summary on list [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-wai-wcag-minutes.html#action06]

(note that previous resolution and action relate to previous agendum)

<scribe> ACTION: wendy to check w/ chairs on this and consider raising on the list [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-wai-wcag-minutes.html#action07]
