They might have feedback on the spec, though. 19:23:45 JS: OK, we'll wait until something comes up. 19:23:51 BG: Fine with me. 19:23:57 Zakim, take up item 5 19:23:57 agendum 5.

(Reads from email) 19:25:10 BG: I went back and forth with Steve Faulker on this. 19:25:26 BG: It's related to the tab index and what shows up in the accessibility tree. 19:25:33 BG: It seems like an IE bug. 19:25:52 CS: It is definitely a difference. Not sure if it's a bug or a quirk, but we should talk about it. 19:26:01 CS: This has already been reported. 19:26:16 JS: As with active descendant, there's no impact on the mapping until something happens here. 19:26:31 CS: Correct, if they ask for a change in the spec. But I don't see any (impact) right now. 19:26:42 JS: I like to see interoperability where possible. 19:26:47 Zakim, take up item 6 19:26:47 agendum 6.

Cynthia did the heavy lifting. 19:27:14 JS: I was looking at this yesterday and have a question. 19:27:25 JS: I have to find the section of the document where to put this. 19:27:51 JS: There is a rule with respect to the MSAA spec that says if you have a role that is not one of the predefined roles, you are not supposed to put a string in the role property. 19:27:57 JS: This was filed a long time ago. 19:28:05 JS: I think I know where in the spec this goes. 19:28:10 JS: And want to confirm with you. 19:28:25 http://www.w3.org/TR/core-aam-1.1/#mapping_role 19:28:35 JS: I think it goes in the above, in section 5.4 19:28:49 JS: The fifth item in the numbered list (reads from it) 19:29:04 JS: I guess under the MSAA bullet, I would put the reference to this. 19:29:26 CS: Yes. I think the biggest impact... Firefox does this. I think they have moved largely over to IA2. 19:29:40 CS: It's important to make David aware of this. 19:29:48 CS: As he was concerned about this. 19:29:54 JS: I will talk to David about this. 19:31:10 JS: I remember going back and forth about this.
