Goals
Is it timely?
- After 20 years research probable yes
- ANSI has already standard for task models
What should we do in a charter
- Reference Framework? – Create common background
- Cameleon framework can be a working group note
- Metamodel for task level (CTT + additional related things considering also other proposals in the field,)
- Abstract metamodel including dialogue and presentation aspects
- Issue on pluggability of tools
- Xforms 2.0 is addressing new issues (simplifying, …)
- XBL is suitable to abstract-concrete transformations?
- We need to consider also large screens, tabletops
- Delivery context ontology is going to be simplified
- User models?
- To consider interoperability (e.g. testing for multimodal interfaces using model-based approaches)
Stakeholders
- Minimal level for reccomendation standards is to ensure two or more implementations
- Deployment – tool developers
- Adoption – developers of context-
- dependent applications, more accessible
- applications,
- Web site owners or operators (those who pay) e.g. health organizations
Benefits
- Benefits for end users and their representatives
- Resources
- Liason with authoring tools in accessibility
- Models for communicating with clients and testing
- Useful to support development with changing requirements
- Support for usability testing and verification of reachability and other properties

- Send a draft charter of the new group to potential participants - October
- Gathering testimonials and support
- Activities to involve tool developers
- Potential conferences Research: WWW, ICWE,
- Potential conferences Developers and Vendors: Apache, Eclipse, OOPSLA, CHI, Workshop at CHI,
- Collaboration working Group on Service Front Ends
- Liasons with other standard organizations and other W3C groups
- Standards for Enabling Developing of Multi-target Applications
Liaisons & Dependencies
Within W3C

- MultiModal Group: Specifications consistent with MMI architecture
- SMIL:Models consistency, temporal aspects
- HCG (Hypertext Coordination Group)
- Semantic Web: Feeding back any gaps
- Voice Browser: Check abstract vocabulary – relations with StateChartXML (SCXML)
- Mobile activity
External Liaisons
