Also to be able to get information about things they are focusing their attention on. 16:44:01 q? 16:44:04 q+ 16:44:49 LS: e.g. using something like aria-described - but as I mentioned before, the content might be different to what woulld be requested by a non-visual user 16:44:57 ack me 16:45:02 q? 16:45:10 ack shep 16:45:38 DS: Best thing is to decide what we are trying to accomplish - break down our work into different goals. 16:45:57 i/LS: e.g./scribe: chaals/ 16:46:02 +1 to identifying goals. 16:46:09 … one thing will be identifying use cases 16:46:17 [+1 to identifying goals] 16:46:46 … some aspects of use cases will lead to requirements for users that are fulfilled by authoring practice, some by adding features to SVG or ARIA, some will crossover 16:46:57 … Some will be requirements on user agents. 16:47:08 … It is relatively easy to identify the features needed by a screenreader 16:47:28 [For the record I don't think it is that easy with a screenreader either, but doug's point is still valid] 16:47:58 … There are different kinds of requirement, and we need to be able to work out how to handle the range of them - e.g. signalling user requirements and use profiles 16:48:16 LS: We have been working on doing this client-side to pull out the things people want without giving away their privacy / security 16:48:27 Plumbing Potential Features: 16:48:27 Media Query feature that says to expose features of a given importance level or higher 16:48:29 Need the ability to group sections of a diagram together with a defined keyboard navigation order 16:48:30 [+1 to making sure you don't identify how easy it is to trick you in a certain way…] 16:48:30 Ability to highlight content with their associated visual descriptions 16:48:32 Ability to annotate the importance level 16:48:33 Need alternative, alternative text for people with cognitive impairments 16:48:35 We need an aria-nonliteral attribute (takes a string). See the example above. (Note: Lisa, what do you want the user agent or author to do with this. e.g. if there was a media query that stated that non-literals are used instead ... render it some how) 16:48:36 We need less icons but make them bigger. ...? 16:48:37 We need to be able to pull in information about a picture that is pulled in from somewhere else. (To Do for Lisa to expand on this) 16:48:38 Ability to tie colors to semantic meaning? 16:48:52 DS: So how do we want to approach this stuff. Do we need a longer conversation? 16:48:54 q? 16:49:16 LS: I heard two things. One, identify the goals. 2. We need to understand the user experience and what it needs to be. 16:49:35 … then we can get into the nitty gritty of how we might try to achieve these things. 16:49:44 ack me 16:49:58 q+ 16:50:08 ack ch 16:50:10 RS: Two things I see here. We need a vehicle for the user to specify their needs. 16:50:12 q+ 16:50:22 … e.g. like user context API 16:50:28 ack ri 16:50:56 … Sounds like we also need additional attributes in content to help the user agent or application author match content to user requirements. 16:51:21 … We also need to know what the user agent needs to do. 16:51:31 present+ LJWatson 16:52:02 … we can add alternate content and similar metadata of various kinds. 16:52:33 … We will need some of these things for SVG drawings. They are not necessarily important for assistive technology using accessibility APIs but it does impact the accessibility of the user experience. 16:52:37 LS: I heard two things. One, identify the goals. 2. We need to understand the user experience and what it needs to be. 3. how the user comuntes their need 16:52:46 … We need a way for the user to get the "correct" content. 16:52:58 s/comnutes/communicates 16:53:06 q? 16:53:09 s/need/needs to the application or user agent 16:53:21 One, identify the goals. 2. We need to understand the user experience and what it needs to be. 3. idetfy the sematics we need, 4 how the user comuntes their need 16:53:37 s/needs to the application or user agent/need/ 16:53:46 s/need/needs to the application or user agent 16:54:14 ack c 16:55:05 Chaals: What we need is a statement of the problems people face. A good way to do this is to gather as many examples for as many different disabilities as we can. 16:55:10 q+ 16:55:38 q- 16:56:10 q+ 16:56:13 Chaals: Before we start assigning changes to UA, ARIA or SVG, we should understand those questions at a basic level at the least. 16:56:28 https://w3c.github.io/wcag/coga/user-research.html 16:56:39 https://rawgit.com/w3c/coga/master/techniques/index.html 16:56:43 16:56:55 https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/cognitive-a11y-tf/wiki/Syntax_for_adaptable_links_and_buttons 16:57:05 Chaals: If you have an attribute that says this content doesn't contain numbers, I think that's the wrong way around. We should try to identify *when content contains numbers. There's a lower risk of false positives, and it's easier to accomplish. 16:57:47 rrsagent, make minutes 16:57:47 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2015/05/11-coga-minutes.html LJWatson 16:58:18 LS: Will write up some conclusions from this meeting and circulate. 16:58:32 -> https://www.w3.org/wiki/SVG_Accessibility#Images_for_playing_with_to_determine_use_cases_and_requirements A growing set of SVG images to consider … 16:58:32 LS: My concern is that with so many important deadlines coming up, how do we prioritise? 16:58:50 [needs a lot of things like interactive interfaces and applications to be added] 16:58:51 LS: Could we put CogA people in SVG TF or vice versa perhaps? Thoughts? 16:59:17 [I suggest we prioritise mostly by focusing on the stuff that people do the work to move forward…] 16:59:22 RS: Not sure of SVG 2 timeline, but would like to get something up and running within the next 12 months. We have work to do! 16:59:28 [chaals leaves for real] 16:59:49 ddahl has left #coga 16:59:50 RS: We (the CogA TF) need to identify the attributes that match the needs of users, and develop guidelines on how to use them properly. 17:00:09 RS: Also need a vehicle to convey to the UA how to pick the right experience - it's a context issue. 17:00:19 rrsagent, make minutes 17:00:19 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2015/05/11-coga-minutes.html LJWatson 17:00:21 Need to leave now, sorry! 17:01:12 LJWatson has left #coga 17:01:18 I need to drop off sorry 17:01:18 yes\ 17:01:26 scribe:ayelet_s 17:01:27 chaals1 has joined #coga 17:01:39 https://w3c.github.io/wcag/coga/user-research.html 17:01:52 Fred: we need actual research on user cases 17:02:24 Lisa: we have that in the user cases, but they are not specific to visual user cases 17:02:42 https://rawgit.com/w3c/coga/master/techniques/index.html 17:03:24 ,,, worth reading them before deciding to make more user cases 17:04:58 ... we are writing JSON object notations for adapting the content for different user group 17:05:40 ... will be deployed quicker than GPII 17:06:06 Fred: do we have user cases about charts or graphics 17:06:18 LS: no, but we have techniques 17:06:49 Fred: we need to extract ones for SVG 17:07:11 I've lost the Webex audi after losing the connection and rejoining - have we nearly finished? 17:07:18 https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/cognitive-a11y-tf/wiki/Easy_Personalization 17:07:58 LS: what we did so far. is a gross approach but could become more complex 17:08:13 *link to what we did so far 17:09:03 Lisa: will write E-mail in conclusion. Will also go back to task force and discuss how to prioritise this 17:09:31 Fred: how could we(SVG) validate the techniques you propose? 17:10:24 LS: easiest way would be to bring it back to our task force, as we have members working with people with disabilities 17:10:45 LS: Thanks for all, and sorry for the problems with the new technology 17:10:53 rrsagent, make logs public 17:10:59 rrsagent, create minutes 17:10:59 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2015/05/11-coga-minutes.html Lisa_Seeman 17:11:05 zakim, please part 17:11:05 Zakim has left #coga 17:11:25 rrsagent, please part 17:11:25 I see no action items
