Adding ARIA is the right thing to do 15:11:56 CS: second, new content - should use native semantics to the extent that it's possible, then add ARIA where necessary 15:12:30 CS: could this be added to validation tools? 15:14:12 SF: find those things that would absolutely be meaningless and flag those 15:14:52 SF: have had native check boxes and radio buttons for a long time but people continue to want to build them using non-native ways because they don't like how the native ones look 15:15:17 SF: don't think there is a use case for role=heading in HTML 15:15:23 CS: but there could be in other languages 15:16:37 SF: how do we come up with a rule for strong vs. weak semantics that accommodates both the heading case (where native semantics should not be overridden) ... 15:17:00 SF: ... and check boxes and radio buttons where there are good reasons to override them 15:18:16 SF: can look at specific examples make a judgement but don't have a clear understanding of what the overall principle should be 15:18:30 CS: to bring to HTML WG, we need to have a good general rule 15:18:52 cshelly has joined #aapi 15:23:53 SF: won't have a lot of time in the next two weeks 15:24:11 SF: will update the matrix - important to document where HTML and ARIA overlap 15:25:21 -Stevef 15:25:21 CS: asks SF to think about how others can help 15:25:57 -Cooper 15:26:10 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=7041 15:27:04 +[Mozilla] 15:27:16 Zakim, Mozilla is David_Bolter 15:27:16 +David_Bolter; got it 15:36:01 http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria-implementation/ 15:38:43 topic: Bugs 15:39:39 AS: suggest everybody commit to do 3 specific bugs for next week 15:39:54 Andi: 7018, 7020, 7182 15:40:10 Cynthia: 7016, 7064, 7119 15:40:21 David: 7022, 6888, 7118 15:40:28 -Andi_Snow_Weaver 15:40:29 -Cynthia_Shelly 15:40:29 -David_Bolter 15:40:37 -Janina 15:40:39 Team_(aapi)15:00Z has ended 15:40:40 Attendees were Stevef, Andi_Snow_Weaver, Cooper, Janina, Cynthia_Shelly, David_Bolter 15:41:07 Additional action for next week: everybody review their bugs and come to the meeting prepared to sign of for three specific bugs for the following week. 15:41:45 ... including at least one of the more time consuming bugs 15:41:50 zakim, bye 15:41:50 Zakim has left #aapi 15:42:00 rrsagent, make minutes 15:42:00 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2009/09/08-aapi-minutes.html Andi 15:52:08 Andi has left #aapi
