WCAG 2.0 Evaluation Methodology Task Force Teleconference

test-run

EV: some last minute remarks, added an 'all pages' field, and did some editorial changes

KW: there's an accessibility problem in the survey for people using screen magnifying software

EV: we'll look in to that
... we have to choose a website

DF: will we do just one website? or more?
... suggested a website as well

http://www.w3.org/2014/02/27-eval-minutes

DF: more website give us a better view of the methodology

Liz: agree with DF

EV: Its a lot of work, don't know if we can ask that of people

KW: good to test it on different websites, different types of websites
... this will be one of the critiques we will get : we tested it on too similar sites
... share concern with number of people who will do a total evaluation

MH: scared that not to many people do the same site

EV: if we open it up, people can include the evaluating they are doing at the moment

DF: most important to ask the community for websites, to get a broader view

KW: agree with DF, but we need a disclaimer that the data will become public
... make a note that partial info is also welcome

EV: keeping it at level A will decrease the effort people have to give, increase chance to get feedback
... group decided to do AA

DF: make an open call asking people to nominate websites

DF: we can tell people that we don't need people to expect to do total evaluation, but make an emphasis on the feedback on the methodology

EV: i expect lots of people to volunteer their website for evaluation

DF: we don't need a lot, but more variation then we have now, and we need more testers
... we can start with the sites we have, and need to make a open call for more sites

ME: agree with MH, we should ask people to do one site, use that feedback on maybe a next site
... most valuable for us is if we use one or two sites

<Detlev> I meant more importantly: mor testers =more problems people may encounter using WCAG EM

DF: we need more testers

EV: we need to discuss this in a next telco, but i'd like to start the survey
... right now

DF: agree, starting now is ok to hurry up proces, but like to include more testers

EV: proposal : Start with the 3 websites we have?

DF: consensus was starting with one, adding more later

MH: let's start with one, the sooner we get results the better

<Detlev> fine

EV: or we could do a two-way rocket: first one of our 'own', after that make it more open.

<Detlev> Can we also agree that we have a second public call for evaluation soon?
