priorities online: http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/umtf/priorities
18:23:13 [shawn]
shawn notes that we have weak, rough coverage of promoting web accessibility at http://www.w3.org/WAI/participation.html#promo
18:24:32 [shawn]
Doyle: promoting web accessibility a high priority. talk to someone on bus, in a classroom.
18:28:46 [shawn]
Helle & Shawn: disability advocates etc. not know *web* *accessibility* (just building accessibility, e.g.). also not know issues with other disabilities (e.g., just blind)
18:43:33 [shawn]
Doyle: here also need simpler presentations of the issues, executive summary to educate developers
18:46:28 [shawn]
action: wayne revise current Deliverable 2 based on teleconference discussion, and put it as priority 1
18:52:36 [shawn]
action: wayne check with liam about priorities, and willingness to edit 1st priority doc (note his logo project still seems too big & long term, and thus would be lower priority)
18:56:17 [shawn]
Topic: What Would be in Promoting Web Accessibility Doc?
18:57:41 [shawn]
Doyle: initiate grassroots activites, cities can be working on, get people working on issues locally
18:58:17 [shawn]
Doyle: [within corporation] current EO docs address issues with business. missing straightforward doc for someone advocateing web accessibility
18:59:04 [shawn]
... a simple version of accessiility issues
18:59:41 [shawn]
... e.g., online timesheet not accessible
19:03:50 [judy]

note that these are in random order, and incomplete
19:08:46 [judy]
+ relate it to other kinds of disability advocacy, so that people can see the parallels, and use cross-over strategies
19:08:46 [judy]
+ intro saying that you can do a lot to impact web accessibility w/out knowing a lot of technical detail
19:08:46 [judy]
+ remind the importance of advocating across different disability needs, and fend off myth that disability needs conflict between different groups
19:08:47 [judy]
+ talk about the range of resources in which advocacy around Web accessibility might be needed
19:08:49 [judy]
+ lay out some different approaches, e.g. a tiered level of awareness, communication w/ organizations w/ inaccessible sites, sharing resources for more info, providing bcase rationale & resources, pushing the need to comply, & eventually additional pushing more if needed
19:08:53 [judy]
+ link to some simple sample materials to use in advocacy
19:08:55 [judy]
+ provide some tips on approaches/discussions that do work (e.g. demonstrating barriers) and that don't work well or might backfire & lose ground
19:08:58 [judy]
+ awareness for advocates about how to find policy resources that in some cases require compliance
19:15:47 [shawn]
action: william look at judy's list and how it relates to what WAI already has
19:24:55 [shawn]
