15:18:21 SF: MikeSmith know of any? 15:19:05 SF: have meta generator that is exception to use of @alt -- shuts up validator -- any other errors that tell validator to ignore specific syntax 15:19:31 SF: can imagine if press rules, will be other requests for rules -- why a single exception for @alt 15:19:58 MS: worded in spec not to suppress error, but says alt required unsless there is a meta tag with name="generator" or a @title 15:19:59 +q 15:20:07 SF: flagging a conformance error 15:20:24 MS: could perceive that way, but are other things in same class -- not unique in that regard 15:20:43 MS: behavior class performance criteria for others as for generator - 15:20:46 SF: examples? 15:21:42 MS: select element has required attribute and no multiple attr and size of 1 (have to compute, not just value of attr) if all are case, must have option attr that either has a value attr or doesn't have any text content 15:21:49 MS: other cases: complicated assertions in spec 15:22:02 SF: doesn't have anything to do with setting flag via meta generator 15:22:18 SF: is there a flag one can set for changing error to non-error? 15:22:30 SF: happy to discuss offline with MS 15:22:36 ack JF 15:22:38 MS: happy to discuss offline -- not the only case 15:23:02 Leonie_Watson has joined #html-a11y 15:23:31 JF: interested in question by SF -- what we have is a meta string -- example you gave VERY tightly focused -- generator string in hand of document and effects ENTIRE document -- for CMS systems when in template can negatively affect entire site 15:23:49 JF: anything in spec that changes performance criteria for entire document 15:23:58 MS: this case is an extreme one, but not the only one 15:24:15 MS: presence of single element with certain attr in document affects every image in document 15:25:25 MS: talked with SF about this offline, but think in terms of validator behavior, don't think many users will expect when put in meta generator element in document that that means they are opting out of checking for @alt on img -- something consciously doing by adding generator? -- that to me is strong argument -- people want conformance checker to alert them to things that might otherwise miss 15:27:15 JF: CMS supports 150 content authors who don't see code ever -- just add content to template -- don't know what meta generator string is -- 3rd party conformance tools have to deal with fact that @alt not needed if meta generator inserted -- allowed because of meta generator string -- assert most authors willl have NO idea they are creating a problem because generator string says confromant 15:27:32 +1 to JF 15:28:13 MS: conformance checker hat on this doesn't seem to be optimal behaviour -- should persue, but not now -- supportive of trying to see whether this is what other people working on ER tools think is acceptable behavior 15:28:23 MS: talk with henri about it on list good approach 15:28:35 JF: ping RichS from IBM 15:28:48 SF: OpenAjax Alliance 15:29:20 MS: FIGCAPTION -- state of things: had agreement with TF just a few weeks ago --changed -- don't know how or why 15:29:29 i don't remember consensus on FIGCAPTION 15:29:32 JF wanted to include the wiki page for the @kind values for the multi-track API discussion: http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Track_Kinds 15:29:47 SF: misunderstanding in regards what WAI-CG agreed to over 2 years ago -- spec changed 15:30:23 SF: FIGCAPTION supposed to be a caption, not a text alternative -- use cases that are WCAG conformant that a CAPTION is not sufficient textual alternative -- caption has meaning inherited from print 15:31:39 MS: think we need to not operate under assumption that HTML WG chairs are going to delay LC for Text Subteam to complete work and have reviewed by TF -- not prudent assumption -- chairs plan to follow tight schedule for September 2011 publication - 15:31:53 MS: need to bring up for discussion in TF 15:32:02 JF: suggest MS discuss this with Judy Brewer 15:32:28 q? 15:32:30 MS: anything else on text subteam? 15:33:01 SF: FIGCAPTION supposed to be a caption, not a text alternative -- use cases that are WCAG conformant that a CAPTION is sufficient textual alternative 15:33:16 15:33:31 s/SF: FIGCAPTION supposed to be a caption, not a text alternative -- use cases that are WCAG conformant that a CAPTION is not sufficient textual alternative -- caption has meaning inherited from print/SF: FIGCAPTION supposed to be a caption, not a text alternative -- use cases that are WCAG conformant that a CAPTION is sufficient textual alternative / 15:33:41 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2011/05/05-html-a11y-minutes.html oedipus 15:34:38 SF: if no @alt, but @title, role still presentation for element/attr and will NOT be in A11y API or accessible to ATs 15:35:01 SF: allowing that to occur means that it will not work for AT users -- role=presentation means content not available 15:35:27 scribe: Leonie_Watson 15:35:52 JF: What does title do for us from an accessibility perspective? 15:36:21 JF: It seems to me that until the browsers do something useful with title... 15:36:46 SF: There is an implementation issue here that needs to be resolved. The conformance rule is contradictory. 15:37:15 oedipus has joined #html-a11y 15:37:28 SF: Either the spec has to change, or the implementation has to change. 15:37:41 q? 15:37:41 q+ to say working on @summary for table and issue of hidden versus discoverable metadata 15:38:24 GJR: @title has NO place in graphical/visual rendering space -- if no @alt, no text inline -- only @title available onMouseOver (device dependent) 15:38:30 JF: We have incomplete support for the title attrib, in that it only produces a tooltip in most browsers. For users with cognitive issues, you could argue this is helpful. 15:38:46 q? 15:38:52 ack oe 15:38:52 oedipus, you wanted to say working on @summary for table and issue of hidden versus discoverable metadata 15:38:54 JF: It's not available to all users though, only some users. 15:39:38 q? 15:39:39 MS: It sounds as though there's still some work to be done, but that there are people working on it. 15:40:08 Topic: Canvas sub team 15:40:51 GJR: We've been working via email. We're waiting for the results of Rich's latest exchange with Ian. We're waiting for the inter group dynamic to work itself out. I think there is movement there. 15:41:35 GJR: We're also aggresively pursuing testing canvas with ATs and browsers. We've gotten very good feedback/participation from AT providers. 15:41:40 s/(device dependent)/(device dependent and impermenant [only rendered for a short time and then disappears/ 15:42:32 MS: I don't think there's anything the TF needs to step in on there. 15:43:38 scribe: oedipus 15:43:47 -Leonie_Watson 15:43:50 TOPIC: ARIA Mapping/Bug Triage 15:44:02 MS: pertient people not here -- 15:44:20 JF: bug triage team needs to take a new pass after last few weeks of action 15:44:37 -[Microsoft] 15:44:48 TOPIC: Review of Open Action Items 15:44:48 http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/track/actions/open 15:45:15 MS: nothing with high priority -- a bunch due recently for text alternatives sub-team -- doesn't need further review 15:45:28 MS: don't need to reveiw as group 15:45:36 TOPIC: Scribe for Next Week 15:45:45 MS: volunteer for 12 May 2011? 15:46:05 jongund has joined #html-a11y 15:46:13 MS: Janina will chair next week 15:46:21 MS: other business? 15:46:27 [ADJOURNED] 15:46:34 -Eric 15:46:44 -mranon 15:46:50 -Gregory_Rosmaita 15:46:55 -Stevef 15:46:57 -JF 15:47:03 zakim, please part 15:47:03 leaving.
