's summary

CSS Device Adaptation http://www.w3.org/TR/css-device-adapt/

JS: there is a spec in CSS that includes a provision that effectively prevents some devices fromzooming

been around for several years, but has been in working draft status

yet we are now hearing that it is being implemented

that's an issue we need to investigate, but the larger issue is the impact of early publications that move slowing at W3C, but quickly at implementors level

likely no resolution today, but we need to discuss this at length

returning to the specific spec, what are we to do now?

CYNS: with the new CR combined process, this is ging to be the new normal, right?

MC: not sure if the process directly influences this, but yes, there seems that this will be the tendancy

CYNS: point is, by the time something reaches LC, it is likely already in a working, mainstream browser

MC: correct, but this 1st PWD already had implementations on the ground

CYNS: perhaps we need a protocol between staff contacts to keep information flowing

JS: this is supposed to be happening at the Mgmt level and charters

MC: there is a bit of a catch there as well - some groups seem to manage to add new deliverables without rechartering
... the issue here was that the idea gained some significant momentum before it even reached W3C
... this is about Zoom: for example if you set zoom-minimum and zoom-maximum both to =1, then it effectively halts zooming

CYNS: perhaps we need to work with our contacts at the various browser vendors to ensure that these things can get caught at that level too
... noting similar larg-org communication issues exist everywhere

JS: we need to flag our concern about this early and flag our concerns
... hope to put up some draft language on next weeks call

CYNS: and ask for the use-cases

[meta discussion on technology versus awareness of a11y]
