I removed those and did a little clean-up but mostly the submission process went quite well. 12:35:06 ...there were a couple of cases where the @@@ placeholders caused problems or trying to put quotes in side the values.

I think personas are really really improtant to the design process, allowing us to keep user needs in mind. Please help us make sure we got it right. 12:44:10 Brent: Any questions from the groups? 12:44:46 ...there is a question on the weekly survey that will give you the opportunity to comment. 12:45:13 Topic: Web Accessibility Perspectives (text) 12:46:35 Shadi: Thanks to all those who provided comments. I have made updates to the pages and have worked through the comments with those who submitted them and have a new version on GitHub. There are 5 remaining issues, 3 to discuss today and 2 for the weekly survey. 12:46:45 Web Accessibility Perspectives: http://w3c.github.io/wai-showcase-examples/Overview.html 12:47:12 Issue #233: https://github.com/w3c/wai-showcase-examples/issues/233 12:47:54 Shadi: Issue #233 is on deck for discussion - on Learn More section of overview page the links are quite generic. In the specific pages, we have more specific links about the topic in question. 12:48:16 q+ 12:48:26 ...the question is if someone comes to the sub pages, they may need the generic links as well and have bypassed the overview. 12:48:37 ack Susan 12:49:21 Susan: I thought we discussed this and chose to move it to the main page. I prefer not to add a whole additional list of links, could we not link back to the overview list? 12:49:36 q+ to note (after others) that the general links on the main page maybe never be seen by people who go right to the videos 12:49:46 q+ to ask about overlapping resources 12:49:49 Shadi: What do people think of this proposal, link back to the overview page. 12:50:05 ack shawn 12:50:05 shawn, you wanted to note (after others) that the general links on the main page maybe never be seen by people who go right to the videos and to ask about overlapping resources 12:50:10 There is a navigation on the left. They can click through to any of them. 12:50:23 *any general links 12:51:08 Shawn: How much of them really overlap? For example the intro to web accessibility does not overlap at all, but the HPWDUTW is 100% overlap, what about tutorials? 12:51:15 Shadi: Low coverage on those. 12:51:41 s/HPWDUTW/“How People with Disabilities Use the Web” 12:51:44 q+ 12:51:57 Shawn: So maybe we just add one link to the subpages - only the one that is the Intro to Accessiiblity 12:52:07 where would you suggest it be added Shawn? 12:52:17 ack Susan 12:52:22 Susan: That link is already on the navigation on the left - why add it again? 12:53:12 Shawn: Our usability testing data shows that many people do not even see the navigation on the left. And many people find that cluttering and annoying and avoid it. 12:53:47 q+ 12:55:11 q+ 12:55:17 ack b 12:55:25 Brent: I would probably not make the connection that some resource in the main navigation might be helpful, so I would not think to look at those for additional resources. 12:55:28 +1 to brent 12:55:41 ftr, I do not feel strongly either way 12:55:43 ack howard 12:56:19 James has joined #eo 12:56:58 Howard: Might be useful to add a link back to video overveiw page for simplicity and clarity. 12:57:23 [ there is a link to "Overview" under the video ] 12:57:29 Shadi: Why would someone follow that link since all the videos are there? 12:57:35 to Howard's point...we're contributing to the "screen it out" by adding even more on the page. This is part of a bigger pattern we need to move away from in our redesign. 12:57:49 Howard: Sometimes people want to be back at the starting point. 12:57:58 q+ to say not add general links, emphasize paging navigation instead 12:58:17 q+ to note (after others) that the general links on the main page maybe never be seen by people who go right to the videos 12:58:44 James_ has joined #eo 12:59:06 Howard: Since the intro docs are linked from the overview page, that would be a reason to give people a chance to access it without adding repetitive links to each video section 12:59:26 ack me 12:59:26 yatil, you wanted to say not add general links, emphasize paging navigation instead 12:59:29 ack y 13:00:31 Eric: I don't think we need general links on the sub pages, they add clutter and people will not be expecting them. Maybe emphasize the page navigation - previous, next, overview page. 13:00:52 Shadi: Are you suggesting that you can provide a design overview - thank you! 13:01:30 ...to Howard's point there is a link back to the overview page but it gets lost. Does it need a design update to emphasize it? 13:01:30 If they were buttons, you would find them easier. 13:01:55 ack me 13:01:55 shawn, you wanted to note (after others) that the general links on the main page maybe never be seen by people who go right to the videos 13:01:55 Howard: Yes, that would proabably do it, but I don't feel strongly. 13:02:28 Shawn: My strong feeling is that people never see links at the bottom. 13:02:40 Shawn, data point or assumption? Do we have analytics yet? 13:02:59 q+ to say expand/collapse 13:03:04 agree on need to avoid clutter 13:03:06 ack me 13:03:07 yatil, you wanted to say expand/collapse 13:03:10 Shadi: Remember that our primary audience are people who have little or no understanding, experince with accessiiblity. 13:03:34 Susan, assumption. Yes we have analytics -- however, that doesn't tell us how many people read the links at the bottom. Would need eye tracking for that. :-) 13:03:37 Eric: Could hide those things, if you want to learn more you can open links. 13:04:51 +1 for not repeat 13:04:54 Shawn: I thought we had come to the conclusion that we should not duplicate the list on the overview page. 13:05:01 All: agree 13:05:29 +1 to add link to the introduction as the first link in every learn more section 13:05:33 Shawn: I said maybe we could add one link - the intro to accessibility. 13:05:46 I would lean against 13:06:08 Shadi: where? 13:06:20 Shawn: at the beginning of the Learn More section. 13:06:28 Shadi: any objections to that? 13:06:51 Brent: Is the first link in a list now specific to the current video topic? 13:07:04 James_ has joined #eo 13:07:10 Shadi: Yes, currently all the links are specific to the topic. 13:07:15 +1 to Brent 13:07:27 Brent: Then I do object to it being at the top. 13:07:27 [ I wonder avbout making the general link not in the list -- a paragraph - clarying it's general] 13:07:40 +1 to Brent 13:07:50 +1 to Brent 13:07:57 +some 13:07:57 ...I would propose that it be at the bottom rather than the top. 13:08:24 -1 to Brent, instead structuring differently, not feeling strongly 13:08:44 Shadi: Shawn has modified here proposal so that it becomes a general comment with an inline link - is that OK? 13:08:51 Brent: Yes that seems fine. 13:08:57 [ and then introduce the list with something like "... Specific inormation on [topic]:" 13:09:16 +1 13:09:18 q+ 13:10:25 Howard: I wonder if we should just leave it as is. I am a little bit opposed to adding more links. As it is now, we have links that are related to the topic of the page. To introduce a more general resource that is not specific to the topic. 13:10:49 +1 to prefer leave as is 13:10:50 ...seems unecessary and distracting. I would not want to add more resoruces, rather better navigation. 13:11:04 "See general _Introduction to Web Accessibility_ or specific information on Keyboard Compatibility: 13:11:06 * .... 13:11:10 *... 13:11:13 *.... 13:11:42 +1 to Howard and agree that the page navigation will be improved with the redesign 13:11:51 +1 to leave as is 13:12:00 We're contributing to our problem by adding more links 13:12:05 Shadi: Remember this is for people completely new to accessiiblity, I am not sure it is irrelvant. Are we helping people by giving them more general info? 13:12:13 +1 to leaving (status of page, not the EU) 13:12:18 Shawn: See example added above 13:12:24 +1 to leave as is 13:15:04 RESOLUTION: Learn More section of Web Persepctive video sub pages remains as is with no additions of general resources 13:15:23 Shadi: Thanks now to consider issue #257 13:15:27 Next, Issue #257: https://github.com/w3c/wai-showcase-examples/issues/257 13:16:17 ...the intro sentence is suggested to be moved below the video. 13:16:33 Sharron: I like it at the top and appreciate the drumbeat of the repetition 13:17:00 ±0 – I would prefer to link [variety of situation] to the overview. – Not feeling strongly. 13:17:02 Sharron: Like it at the top - like the repetion - drumbeat - ties them together - montra - keep being reminded 13:17:06 +1 to leaving it 13:17:08 Susan: Yes I acan live with it, it's fine. 13:17:22 s/acan/can/ 13:17:33 +1 to this payed off! 13:17:55 RESOLUTION: Intro sentence to remain at the top of the video subpages 13:18:25 Next, Issue #254: https://github.com/w3c/wai-showcase-examples/issues/254 13:19:11 Shadi: Issue #254 the transcripts on the default video, the one with no AD there is no visual information. 13:19:45 ...however, on the AD versions the transcript does include the visual information 13:21:52 Shadi: The alternative is to have only one with all the information, but that does not sync to the video. 13:23:12 ...it is a transcript that highlights as you read and as they are pronounced within the video. 13:23:20 Shawn: It is awesome! 13:23:30 James_ has joined #eo 13:24:24 +1 to remove visual descriptions from videos where the visual description is not spoken out 13:24:25 no issues 13:24:28 q+ 13:24:39 no issue 13:24:56 Shadi: Side bar note, the maker of the player is open to suggestions about the design of the control. For now the question is if it is OK that the default version of the transcript does not have the audio description. 13:26:21 James__ has joined #eo 13:27:53 ...another consideration is that as it is now, it syncs with the video. 13:28:04 ack H 13:28:32 ...my suggestion is to leave as is. 13:28:37 Sharron: +1 13:29:50 Shadi: There will be 2 more questions on the weekly survey and hopefully we will wrap this up next week and have a complete resource. 13:30:59 Zakim, pick a victim 13:30:59 Not knowing who is chairing or who scribed recently, I propose some 13:31:00 RESOLUTION: Transcripts of videos will stay as is. 13:32:47 Topic: UI Components List 13:33:07 -> https://www.w3.org/blog/wai-components-gallery/ 13:33:16 -> https://github.com/w3c/wai-components-gallery/wiki/Proposal-for-improved-quality-and-expectation-management 13:33:57 [[http://us4.campaign-archive1.com/?u=6b769da98a64f917cf55ce67d&id=8e2c91e63f&e=001c15e7d3]] 13:34:37 Eric: A few weeks back we discussed the list and the issue of what we can provide and how do we stand behind the quality. Shadi has proposed some guidelines, it has been extremely helpful in describing the problem and various approaches that are possible. 13:35:38 ...we have summarized the issues and the problems and asked everyone to review this. We want to avoid posting of bad code or people publicly dissing each other. So we want to address these issues. 13:37:18 ...first is managing expectations which involves renaming the resource and the disclaimer. Next we will increase the information the submission process asks for, asking them to think through the criteria, raising the bar. We encourage componenet owners to take accountability, giving us someone to speak with and coordiante with. 13:37:50 ...also make sure that users understand there own responsibility and finally engage the community to flag issues and help with the oversight. 13:38:03 ...there is a detailed action plan. Have people read that? 13:38:05 have read 13:38:09 but could use a summary 13:38:25 have not read - will read now 13:38:31 maybe just the action plan? 13:41:40 Eric: The action plan integrates those approaches as follows. First is to improve the resource title to make sure people don't think these are fully accessible out of the box. There is a wiki page with brainstorms for a new tile. Next is the vetting process, a very open and clear problem. The problem submission form is a Wordpress comment form that will be displayed publicly. Will provide a statement 13:41:40 builder, ensuring that submitters make an accessibility statement that is clearly aligned to WCAG. 13:41:56 s/tile/title 13:42:16 s/problem/process 13:44:10 Eric: Highlight comment threads, not sure how we will do that yet. Will recruit expert volunteers to check new entries, not a full vetting but more of a 'hives' or sanity check to establish at least a baseline. Will have a core set of rules for the sanity check that will be updated regularly. 13:45:23 ...establish response process so that the component owners will answer comments and if they do not within a certain time, will be re-evaluated and perhaps removed. 13:46:13 ...revise or create the statements and instructions that clearly reflect this process so that it is really, really clear what is the expectation. 13:46:20 Susan_ has joined #eo 13:46:28 q+ 13:47:04 Brent: The purpose of bringing it to the meeting is to drive to resolution. So we would like to allow any questions or comments at this time. 13:47:08 q+ 13:47:12 ack susan 13:47:55 q+ 13:48:54 Susan: I think this is a good action plan. However, this is putting a pretty heavy load on submitters and volunteer reviewers that it may slow down growth of the tool. I understand that we must protect the integrity of the tool but think we are going to hobble growth. 13:49:10 q+ 13:49:24 ack h 13:49:42 Eric: Yes, we know that but felt that we must do this and once the process is in place look for ways to streamline. 13:50:15 q+ 13:50:18 Howard: You need for there to be a certain number of resources there in order for people to use it, I worry about people being discouraged by the process. 13:50:46 ...and then the question arises about what will we do with the ones that have been submitted already? 13:51:21 ...might it be better to have an internal process that stars or designates the one that *have* been checked 13:51:57 Q+ 13:52:00 Eric: We understand and will ask those that are submitted to go in and follow the process. 13:52:23 ack susan 13:52:56 Susan: I think Howard's pont is good and I further worry about the author being the only one who can submit rather than people being able to say "Here is a tool I really like." 13:53:12 ack me 13:54:08 Brent: I agree with Howard about the ones that are already there - will they have to be removed? The other thing is the importance of documentation of the process so that people have confidence. 13:56:07 Sharron: channel DEnis - if we can't have a process that validates these, why do it at all? people really struck buy that commment. W3C & WAI held to higher standards. like try put the process inn place, see how it works. Then can streamline the process. Are we getting high quliaty stff? Do we need the bar so high? 13:56:32 +1 to sharron - hope just a kick-start issue to overcome 13:56:36 ... think more important to give people confidence in the quality of the resources linked here. quality over quantity 13:56:42 scribe: shawn 13:57:01 ee: good point. 13:57:25 ... raise the bar at the beginning. can see how it works - ight be able to open it up in the future 13:57:28 Q- 13:57:36 ack Sharron 13:57:38 ... not set in stone - action plan to get it off the ground 13:57:41 ack sh 13:57:57 q+ 13:58:41 brent: having same thoughts as Susan - gosh, are we gonna drive weveryone away? agree to set standard high at beginning & see what happens. 13:58:48 +1 to sharron also 13:58:59 ... if to much, then we can rethink it. error on the side of being too high as well 13:59:33 ee: want to have resolution. think support from sharron? 13:59:44 no opposition from this end 14:00:19 s/weveryone/everyone/ 14:00:20 shawn: intro duce today & survey for approval 14:00:58 brent: some out today. will put on survey. any [other] specific comments added, edited, or changed? 14:02:18 ... thanks Shadi & Eric! 14:02:42 topic: Resource Development Life Cycle 14:03:45 Brent: had survey question. received some comments.

Then we can put it into github at some point. 14:11:26 Howard: Thought any doc we have we wanted updated. 14:11:29 q+ 14:11:48 Howard what resource is it? 14:11:59 Shawn: Bring to EO planning group 14:12:18 Brent: Good point - process don't clearly defined.

Can do by e-mail. 14:22:14 Howard: So do I ask for GitHub now? Or first get approval from Planning Team. 14:22:41 Brent: send e-mail to planning team 14:22:42 q+ 14:22:57 ... this is what I suggest we do to this resource... 14:23:24 ack me 14:24:42 Shawn: Two things: It can be Eric or Shawn to create github repository. FYI: The team-eo-plan is not public visible. Mail goes to Chairs, Editors, Team Contacts. But we can open it to others, too. Feel free to join the planning meeting to – this is not some secret behind the scenes thing. 14:24:58 Shawn: e-mail is not publicly archived. anyone can get on list or come to planning meeting. (but assume most don't want the clutter) 14:25:27 Topic: Resource Check In (by Resource Managers) 14:25:57 q+ to say quickref 14:26:21 Brent: Sharron & I working on more defined process - what the high priority, what's the primary resouce that each is working on.
