18:19:53 <sharper> JA: JS did a poster session at ATIA and has comments.
18:21:07 <sharper> JS: @ posters - one on WAI and Guidelines and screen-shot of Easy YouTube Browser
18:21:37 <sharper> JS: Generated most discussion as concerned that we where including Web Applications as User Agents.
18:22:08 <sharper> JS: feeling was covered by WCAG and was confusion that we required developers to conform to 2 sets of guidelines
18:22:38 <sharper> JS: Concern re - EU that thsi would quickly become a standard
18:23:07 <KFord> q+
18:23:11 <sharper> JS: W-Applications are just widgets and have to conform to WCAG and ARIA and now UAWG
18:23:17 <sharper> ack
18:23:40 <JR> q+
18:23:45 <sharper> KF: What do people think about this - what are our reactions?
18:24:38 <sharper> JR: Not going to be to much of a big deal in reality - we already point to WCAG for a big chunk of this - things after this are really just to do with broswer specific stuff - in a browser setting.
18:25:02 <KFord> q+
18:25:18 <JR> ack JR
18:25:28 <sharper> MH: Sorted in Public comment
18:25:36 <AllanJ> ack KFord
18:26:34 <AllanJ> Q+ cover the future and black hole of javascript
18:26:41 <sharper> KF: Our guidelines are the superset of the basics that would be needed, for future proofing.
18:27:06 <sharper> KF: need some good arguments on this
18:28:22 <sharper> JA: with PF dodged a bullet using ARIA - may not be so lucky next time - developers doing so so much with JavaScript that there may be problems in the future.

18:28:50 <KFord> q+
18:29:01 <sharper> ack KFord
18:30:30 <sharper> KF: UAAG 1 based on desktop - strides on eliminating the bias - desktop is still primary - but other devices must be included - need to make sure that our guidelines are not so biased. 
18:31:15 <sharper> JS: Like to take the time to re read for modularity - such that if a section applies to a W-Application or does the entire document applies - must be careful on this.
18:31:37 <sharper> JA: in Conformance claim?
18:31:47 <mth> q+
18:32:16 <sharper> JS: Guidelines to make sure that (in application notes) we have the right boundaries around the user agent types.
18:33:04 <sharper> ack mth
18:34:16 <sharper> MH: Follow up on KF - most innovation on touch screen devices etc. need to look at the document now to see this.
18:34:48 <AllanJ> boundary between (specific guidelines) for web-applications as browser and browser-application
18:34:56 <KFord> SHarper: Talking about other browsing platforms like that used by phones from Google.

18:36:11 <AllanJ> ack mth
18:36:54 <KFord> JR: +1 to kford's comments.  Reason why we need to declare any kind of boundary is that in the end we are talking about agents where the contet is web content.

18:39:27 <sharper> KF: Android technology could be the greater concern, JSON is more about the JS technology as it is about displaying information.
18:39:54 <AllanJ> SH: JSON covered by ARIA?
18:40:38 <sharper> KF: JSON more about the exchange as opposed to the display so would not effect this - as WCAG / UAAG / ARIA would still cover this.
18:40:54 <sharper> ack mth
18:41:05 <AllanJ> KF: more about background (lower-level) data transfer
18:41:20 <sharper> MH: Android browser based on WebKit and more like chrome
18:42:52 <sharper> MH: Times Article - TV Raman - touch screen technology working on user agents - ideas on this?
18:43:55 <KFord> JSON definition/description http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Json
18:44:38 <JR> So JSON is just a format
18:46:10 <sharper> RESOLVED: Still resolved to address Web Applications in the UAAG Guidelines as they are part of the browser.
18:47:57 <sharper> RESOLVED: JA - Two sets of guidelines, these are for things that are for applications and another set are the Web Applications side (this is a possibility - re JS characterisations) in maybe a 2-tiered way.

18:50:14 <sharper> JR: Could you say when content is wrapped in content then it is just content - but when you transform something you're a user agent.

18:52:11 <sharper> MH: Pulling local database information (not Web) and wrapping in html but not web content
18:52:38 <sharper> JR: is dataformat a web content format? HTML is ARIA is / word is not say
18:53:04 <AllanJ> ack KFord
18:53:06 <sharper> MH: pulling an XML doc into an XSLT system
18:54:56 <sharper> KF: common for desktop applications - will use any web tech that is on the platform as it is easy to wrap and use. Problem, maybe getting AT to switch between these applications - is this covered - should it be? Also, problem getting out of the environment.
18:56:01 <AllanJ> q+
18:56:03 <sharper> KF: Do we need a guideline saying - you've got to play nice with your neighbours.
18:57:16 <JR> q+
18:57:48 <sharper> JA: In new 508, did away with application guidelines and web guidelines - now they are just one.
