15:48:32 Do hyou have us muted? 15:48:40 Zakim, this is WAI_(UAWG1)10:30AM 15:48:40 ok, jeanne; that matches WAI_(UAWG1)10:30AM 15:48:54 zakim, code 15:48:54 I don't understand 'code', jeanne 15:48:59 zakim,code? 15:48:59 the conference code is 82941 (tel:+1.617.761.6200 tel:+33.4.26.46.79.03 tel:+44.203.318.0479), jeanne 15:49:09 rrsagent, make minutes 15:49:09 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2010/11/09-ua-minutes.html jeanne 15:49:12 back in 15 15:49:38 We don't see you any more 15:50:07 We are going to reboot. 15:50:28 We are probably 15 minutes ffrom being ready, apologies. 15:51:34 We are calling again. 15:52:39 just a second 15:55:32 What kind of unit do youhave? 15:56:12 tandberg 16:18:37 zakim, why didn't you notice me joining? 16:18:37 I don't understand your question, Jan. 16:19:11 zakim, I don't understand your question. 16:19:11 I don't understand 'I don't understand your question', Jan 16:19:37 zakim is confused because there are two UAAG calls at this time 16:27:43 http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2010/ED-UAAG20-20101105/ 16:31:20 Kelly: start with principle 1.1, provide access to alternative content -- look through subpoints 16:35:11 JR: too many examples -- as a general rule we should have as few examples as possible -- so it's not longer than the success criteria 16:37:14 GL: shorter and more conversational -- icons next to content with text alternatives or captions -- would that be short enough 16:37:57 +1 to shorter 16:38:34 Idea: Identify Presence of Alternative Content: The user has the option of having indicators displayed with rendered elements that have alternative content (e.g. images with short text alternatives indicated with an icon) 16:39:27 irc://irc.w3.org:6665/ua 16:40:13 http://irc.w3.org/ 16:40:18 Greg has joined #ua 16:40:29 kford has joined #ua 16:40:42 http://irc.w3.org/ 16:41:04 Or shorter: Identify Presence of Alternative Content: The user has the option of having indicators displayed with content that has alternative content (e.g. an icon to indicate an image has a short text alternatives) 16:44:22 do we really need an example in the SC?? 16:44:42 +1 16:46:30 1.1.2 16:46:30 Resolved: Renumber 1.1.2 & 3 to come before 1.1.1 16:48:09 GL: not sure we need globally 16:48:37 the user can specify which types of content to render by default 16:49:23 1.1 .3 16:51:11 KF: the user can browse the alternative -- the alternatives of what 16:51:39 GL: the user can browse for a rendered element 16:52:02 1.1.2 (former 3.1.3) Browse and Render: The user can browse content alternatives, switch between them, and render them according to the following (Level A): 16:52:24 KF: it's got to be a plural 16:52:26 "For any rendered element, the user can browse..." 16:52:38 JA: must be associated with each piece of content 16:53:47 GL: what did we come up with for a summary 16:53:58 GL: I find the bold items difficult to read 16:54:00 upshots http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2010OctDec/0007.html 16:54:39 Upshot: Let users see at a glance which pieces of content have alternatives like alt text or longdesc (3.1.1) and click on an item to see its available alternatives (3.3.3); they can also choose at least one alternative like alt text to be always displayed (3.1.2), but it's recommended that they also be able to specify a cascade, like alt text if it's there, otherwise longdesc, otherwise,... 16:54:41 ...filename, etc. 16:55:36 "synchronized alternatives for time-based media can be rendered at the same time as their associated audio and visual tracks (e.g., captions, audio descriptions, or sign language for video or audio)" 16:56:49 "non-synchronized alternatives can be rendered as replacements for the original rendered content (e.g., short text alternatives or long descriptions for images)" 16:59:01 So the entire thing now would be be: "For any rendered element, the user can browse the alternatives, switch between them, and render them according to the following (Level A): * synchronized alternatives for time-based media can be rendered at the same time as their associated audio and visual tracks (e.g., captions, audio descriptions, or sign language for video or audio)* non-synchronized alternatives can be rendered as replacements for the original rendered cont 17:01:00 ""For any rendered element, the user can browse the alternatives, and choose at least one to be rendered according to the following ..." 17:03:22 The question is, do we want to require the user be able to see more than one alternative at the same time? 17:03:47 When a rendered element has alternatives, the user can control rendering of the alternatives according to the following: 17:04:59 KF: for any rendered element with alternatives 17:05:43 rrsagent, make minutes 17:05:43 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2010/11/09-ua-minutes.html jeanne 17:05:51 Could shorten the second clause to be "the user can control which are rendered", as we've already said we're talking about alternatives. 17:07:00 GL: still need to decide whether we want to explicitly require whether the user can see more than one at the same time 17:08:03 Another slight, shorter variation on Jan's wording: "For any rendered element, the user can control rendering of the alternatives" 17:08:23 For any rendered element, the user can control rendering ofany alternatives 17:09:07 For any rendered element, the user can control rendering of the alternative content 17:09:22 When a rendered element has alternatives, the user can control the alternatives according to the following: 17:10:32 When a rendered element has alternative content, the user can control the alternatives according to the following: 17:11:28 +1 17:11:31 +1 17:11:47 "can have alternatives rendered according to the following"? 17:12:41 Just because "control" is a bit broad. 17:14:11 JR: long descriptions should be replaced, but for synchronized time-based media they can play at the same time 17:14:22 JA: different depending on the media type 17:14:53 So this only requires text alternatives *replace* images, not supplement images. Is there something else that requires or recommends the ability to have alternatives supplement the images? 17:15:05 JR: it does say can 17:15:40 JR: because only available through alternate screen readers they can be put on the screen -- particular use case we want to see although others are possible 17:16:02 GL: no mention of at the same time 17:16:41 JS: intent is clear -- doesn't mention 17:17:22 KF: Greg has raised an issue worth exploring, but not in this guideline perhaps. Do we want to encourage the display of all text and the image 17:17:48 KF: this was an option in a browser it might make people realize how crappy some of their alternate text is 17:17:53 Issue: Do we need to encourage display of alt text and images at the same time. 17:17:53 Created ISSUE-76 - Do we need to encourage display of alt text and images at the same time. ; please complete additional details at http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/tracker/issues/76/edit . 17:18:45 KF: 1.1.4 17:20:14 KF: cascade of types of alternatives is wordy 17:21:14 The user specify a preferred order of content alternatives to render by default. If the alternative content has a different height or width, the user agent will reflow the viewpor 17:21:35 The user can specify a preferred order of content alternatives to render by default. If the alternative content has a different height or width, the user agent will reflow the viewport. 17:21:57 KF: misses the point -- this is about making sure that it falls back when the first ones not there 17:23:40 The user can specify the fallback order in which to render content alternatives. 17:24:02 Maybe we should move "If the alternative content has a different height or width, the user agent will reflow the viewport" to the defn? 17:24:35 I think the instructions on reflowing are general and not repeated everywhere. 17:25:00 The user can specify the fallback order in which to render alternative content. 17:26:23 Action: Greg figure out and or create SC for content reflow. 17:26:23 Created ACTION-463 - Figure out and or create SC for content reflow. [on Greg Lowney - due 2010-11-16]. 17:28:12 I'd still prefer "different types of alternative content" but I'll yield to the majoriyity. 17:28:42 KF: back to 1.11 17:28:50 1.1.1 17:30:12 The user can have indicators rendered along with rendered elements that have alternative content (e.g. visual icons rendered in proximity of content that has short text alternatives, long descriptions, or captions). 17:30:23 The user can specify which types of alternative content to render by default. (Level A) 17:33:09 The user can specify that indicators be rendered... 17:34:27 The user can have indicators of alternative content rendered along with elements that have alternative content 17:35:46 Jan's most recent before that was "Identify Presence of Alternative Content: The user has the option of having indicators displayed with content that has alternative content (e.g. an icon to indicate an image has a short text alternatives)" 17:35:47 The user can specify that alternative content indicators be rendered... 17:36:14 The user can have indicators of alternative content rendered along with elements that have alternative content (e.g. an icon to indicate an image has a short text alternatives) 17:36:54 That sounds really repetitive, with "alternatve content" twice. 17:37:23 The user can specify that indicators be rendered along with elements that have alternative content (e.g. an icon to indicate an image has a short text alternatives) 17:38:02 The user can specify that indicators be rendered along with elements that have alternative content (e.g. an icon to indicate an image has a short text alternative) 17:39:14 The user can specify that elements that have alternative content be highlighted (e.g. an icon to indicate an image has a short text alternative) 17:39:44 We could use the term "highlight" which is defined as including both supplemental icons as well as outlines and other forms of visually distinguishing pieces of content. 17:41:28 The user can specify that elements with alternative content be highlighted (e.g. an icon to indicate an image has a short text alternative) 17:41:28 "The user can have elements highlighted to indicate that they have alternative content" 17:42:43 The user can have indicators of alternative content rendered along with elements that have alternative content 17:42:53 The user can specify that alternative content indicators be rendered along with elements that have alternative content (e.g. an icon to indicate an image has a short text alternative) 17:43:16 +1 17:43:26 +1 17:43:47 +1 17:44:02 +1 17:44:05 +1 17:44:17 I dislike it but OK 17:44:39 greag meant to say ~1 17:45:47 -1 17:46:24 I can say -1 since you don't need consensus :-) 17:46:53 1.2.1 17:53:21 http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2010/ED-UAAG20-20101105/ 17:53:35 We don't say "receive" anywhere else in the document. Elsewhere we always talk about having things rendered. 17:53:35 Repair Missing Alternatives: The user can receive generated repair text when the user agent recognizes that the author has not provided alternative content required by the technology specification (e.g. short text alternative for an image). (Level A) 17:54:36 JR: we don't define how it should be repaired 17:54:37 We also want to the user to be able to say they don't want generated repair text. 17:56:30 "The user can specify whether or not they want the user agent to generate and render repair text when it recognizes that the has not provided alternative content required by the technology specification (e.g. short text alternative for an image). (Level A)" 17:56:46 SH: not specific enough 17:58:09 "The user can specify whether or not the user agent should generate and render repair text when it recognizes that author has not provided alternative content required by the technology specification (e.g. short text alternative for an image). (Level A)" 17:59:21 JS: should the file name for an image 18:01:29 "The user can specify whether or not the user agent should generate and render repair text (e.g. file name) when it recognizes that author has not provided alternative content required by the technology specification. (Level A)" 18:03:11 So in response to Simon's concern, we could change it to: "The user can specify whether or not the user agent should generate and render repair text (e.g. file name) when it recognizes that author has not provided alternative content supported by the technology specification. (Level A)" 18:03:35 That is, "supported by the technology specification" instead of "required by" 18:04:04 The user can specify whether or not the user agent should generate and render repair text (e.g. file name) when it recognizes that author has not provided alternative content. (Level A) 18:05:09 JR: what is it asking the user agent to do -- have the capacity to generate and repair text and under what circumstances 18:05:12 My only worry with that is that it might be too broad, e.g. forcing repair text for things (e.g. text) that normally have no defined alternatives. 18:05:37 JA: it can't give you things it doesn't know about 18:05:52 JA: if you do generate repair techs allow the user to turn it on and off -- that could be a level a thing 18:06:14 GL: it's not hard to generate repair text 18:06:43 JA: the file name is always given as an example, it's not what we are talking about exactly 18:06:58 GL: specification on repair text from one of the other working groups? 18:07:51 JR: repair text has to be human authored -- they should be providing all of this 18:08:38 Filenames and the like could be considered an attributes of an element rather than alternative content for it. 18:09:21 The user could ask the user agent to render some attributes of an element as repair text. 18:09:41 That takes care of Simon's concern that the repair text might be generic and not actually relevant or useful to the user. 18:09:53 SH: definition -- in good faith, maybe that's all we can do 18:09:58 Maybe not *entirely*, but at least partially. 18:10:34 Kim has left #ua 18:11:41 Kim has joined #ua 18:12:51 jeanne has changed the topic to: Editors' Draft http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2010/ED-UAAG20-20101105/ 18:12:57 JR: tools do need to provide a repair capacity, repair techs needs to do something at least as smart as providing the name of the resource file, end-users need to be able to turn it on and off because they may not find it useful 18:13:19 repair text 18:19:39 I note the definition of repair content says "UAAG 2.0 does not require user agents to include repair content in the document object." which seems a problem for assistive technology 18:28:08 ***short break for lunch**** 18:28:14 scribe: jallan 18:29:51 gl: concerned about removing the caveat, and forcing UA to create alternative content for text 18:30:17 That is by removing the phrase "when it recognizes that author has not provided alternative content supported by the technology specification." 18:32:17 previously, The user can specify whether or not the user agent should generate and render repair text (e.g. file name) when it recognizes that author has not provided alternative content supported by the technology specification. (Level A) 18:33:01 The user can specify whether or not the user agent should generate and render repair text (e.g. file name) when it recognizes that author has not provided alternative content. (Level A) 18:33:14 Repair Missing Alternatives: The user can specify whether or not the user agent should generate and render repair text (e.g. file name) when it recognizes that author has not provided alternative content. (Level A) 18:33:23 gl: does this require alternative for text. 18:33:39 ... with no clause, then everything needs an alternative 18:34:15 repair content, repair text 18:34:15 Content generated by the user agent to correct an error condition. "Repair text" refers to the text portion of repair content. Error conditions that may lead to the generation of repair content include: Erroneous or incomplete content (e.g., ill-formed markup, invalid markup, or missing alternative content that is required by format specification); 18:34:15 Missing resources for handling or rendering content (e.g., the user agent lacks a font family to display some characters, or the user agent does not implement a particular scripting language). 18:34:15 UAAG 2.0 does not require user agents to include repair content in the document object. Repair content inserted in the document object should conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 [WCAG10]. For more information about repair techniques for Web content and software, refer to "Techniques for Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines 1.0" [ATAG10-TECHS]. 18:34:20 script 18:34:49 kf: need to scope this to the technology specification. leave it in. 18:35:41 ...there are only certain element that have alternative content (and something can be used to generate repair text) 18:36:03 sh: what is difference between required and supported 18:37:45 in HTML5 can have legend for figure, fall back text, and aria-described by, how does UA know what is missing. 18:38:09 JS: that is covered by 1.1.x 18:39:43 ja: what is use case? 18:40:04 resolved: revisit repair text 1.2.1 18:41:38 issue: revisit repair text 1.2.1 (minutes 9nov2010) 18:41:38 Created ISSUE-77 - Revisit repair text 1.2.1 (minutes 9nov2010) ; please complete additional details at http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/tracker/issues/77/edit . 18:42:45 topic: 1.2.2 Repair Empty Alternatives 18:43:04 The user has the option of receiving generated repair text when the user agent recognizes that the author has provided empty alternative content.

Is that intentional? 21:13:43 http://www.jimthatcher.com/ 21:17:35 A solution might be "a) select and apply one from all available style sheets". Not great but close. 21:17:41 suggestion: select and apply one or more available styles available for the current viewport. 21:18:55 Another example is where today you sometimes can't take advantage of a simplified presentation on the screen, only in print. 21:19:36 use case: cognitive issues. want to print the page with out the print style sheet. if print style sheet is used the paper copy looks different from the screen copy and I am confused 21:20:47 Another wording option would be "a) select and apply one or more available style sheets, regardless of target medium" 21:21:47 Style sheets for another medium might be better as lower priority. 21:22:10 FF shows style sheets in form but does not show @import style sheets to the user 21:22:43 1.7.1 if one or more author style sheets are defined the user has the following options: a. select and apply one or more style sheets b. turn off style sheets 21:23:27 Should be "b) turn off author style sheets" 21:24:05 +1 21:24:20 +1 21:24:25 1.7.1 if one or more author style sheets are defined the user has the following options: a. select and apply one or more style sheets b) turn off author style sheets 21:24:41 I don't like but can live with the (a). 21:25:23 a) select and apply one or more available style sheets, regardless of target medium" 21:26:49 User Style Sheets: If one or more user style sheets are defined, the user has the following options: (Level A) 21:26:49 (a) select a style sheet, or 21:26:49 (b) turn off user style sheets. 21:27:31 Except aren't we making the same as 1.7.1, "select and apply on user style sheet"? 21:27:36 select and apply one or more style sheets, or 21:29:11 resolution: 1.7.1 and 1.7.2 are completed!!! 21:29:33 1.7.1 (former 3.9.1) Author Style Sheets: If one or more author style sheets are defined, the user has the following options: (Level A) 21:29:33 (a) select and apply one or more author style sheets, or 21:29:33 (b) turn off author style sheets. 21:29:33 1.7.2 (former 3.9.2) User Style Sheets: If one or more user style sheets are defined, the user has the following options: (Level A) 21:29:33 Finland signing off... see you tomorrow. 21:29:34 (a) select and apply one or more user style sheets, or 21:29:36 (b) turn off user style sheets. 21:29:54 topic: 1.8.1 Highlight Viewport: The viewport with the input focus (including nested viewports and their containers) is highlighted, and the user is able to customize attributes of the highlighted mechanism, including, but not limited to, shape, size, stroke width, color, and blink rate (if any).
