<George> jb: Congrats to Michael in getting 2.1 out in feb which was the goal.
<George> jB: We are trying to get 2.1 completed quickly, so relevant groups should review and get it in their schedule
<George> MC: we need to finish tech work by end of year and then the issues can be addressed. We need to see what 2.1 will look line before deciding if a 2.2 is needed.
<George> JB: questions
<George> SAZ: whohoo
<George> MC: this first version has stuff that was not fully vetted and these are expecially likely to change.
<George> AK: about 60 issues have come in, from github
<George> MC: 82 open issue and perhaps 30 comments
<Ryladog> what is the link to the Github WCAG 2.1 issues/comments?
<George> LS: There probably any feedback from COGA. It is too complicated to comment on.
<George> LS: We need to pull out COGA andgive the community something they can read that does not invlove as much reading.
<George> LS:Hopefully we can get some feed back after we finish this document that pulls out relevant items.
<Zakim> MichaelC, you wanted to say we shouldn´t view ¨the coga sc¨
<George> MC: when we say pulling out success criteria. Pay attentionto the extraction of the COGA success criteria items.
<George> MC: it was not clear to me that you were extracting a subset. Be careful.
<Lisa_Seeman> the link to what we are doing is at : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NBjIZgCRNRXbdC1xtrYu9vMwgEEpGDSLDZ_5IcpN0zw/edit?usp=sharing
<George> JB: Offering an idea. We have done something like this in the past with WCAG 1 were people were not accustom to integrating. Deaf and hard of hearing and also with SMIL and UAG. It can be helpful to get a highlighted view.
<George> JB: MC and AK are concerned and people can focus their time on the relevant sections.
<George> LS: Lisa posted a link and if people can make comments or add something. There are links to the official version and We tryied to send out the whole document. People looked at it and were intimidated.
<George> JB: We did something in the past with AT vendors who would not read the whole document. The caused event could bring in comments.
<George> MC: End of March is when comments should get in. It is a line in the samd.
<George> JB: we want the intersection of issues correct.
<George> AK: I think it has been difficult for any task force to feel like they are up to speed on other task forces.
<George> AK: We are finding that there is alignment between one or another.
<George> Kathy: there is a lot of email going around. we are struggling to review of the materials.
<George> JB: good opp to run in advance of this milestone. Get practice in making comments between the irritations. I will asume you are on top of that.
<George> LS: it might be worth holding a call educational calls so people can understand the user needs of the different groups. 2 or three calls that could be recorded.
<Kim> +1
<George> LS:This could give people a better feel for the COGA topic. Lisa would love to know more about the other task forces.
<George> AK: perhaps scheduling an additional call on Thursdays to give people more time to get into the depths of the proposals. Everybody is feeling strapped for time.
<George> JB: Thank you anddrew. In the past there were objections about Cognative and learning and it went well beyond
<Lisa_Seeman> Any time!
<George> JB: Lisa thank you for offering an educational opp.
<George> GK: AI to get the document in front of EPUB CG and ask for comments.
<George> RS: we are swamped.
<George> JS: we decided not to take it on as a formal review. There are plenta of APA folks involved in the review.
<George> JB: I am worried at CSUN were not going to look at it at this point.
<George> JB: We are at a time when haveing reviews at a later date would lead to unexpected results.
<George> Takeup next item
<Ryladog> Can you not hear me? Did you mute me?
<George> JB: is there anything that people want to say about CSUN
<George> JB: what should we be doing corridinating with. Relevant items with other groups.
<George> KS: Not ignoring you. mic problem.
<George> KS: One thing, I did not send to WAI-IG. They did not get the announcements oops. Katie will do it.
<George> JB: Michael, do you know what happened.
<George> JB: it dd go out to the IG.

<janina> wai-ig announcement of wcag 2.1 at: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ig/2017JanMar/0277.html
<MichaelC> Personalization Semantics editors´ draft
JB: New item from the ARIA group.
The topic of Personalization has come up over and over again in
WAI. Prior efforts have never materialized, but if we bring it
to more people's attention, along with a clear focal point,
perhaps things will be different this time..
... there may be a formal announcements
MC: It started in COGA as a
result of the Gap Analysis. It went to ARIA where it did not
have a lot of progress.
... It is important to some of the proposed success criteria in
WCAG 2.1, so it has been put on a faster track
<George> George can take the minutes back.
LS: I am coordinating with
Madeleine Rothberg and the Low Vision Accessibility Task
Force
... that may increase it's scope in WAI.
... it can address issues for other user groups
... I'm hoping it will be powerful beyond it's starting
point
<George> LS: the personalization can also help people outside wai.
<George> JB: other questions or comments?
<scribe> scribe: George
MC: announced when first draft published in about a month from now.
JB: Should we be engaging people in theformative stage.
MC: we need to manage people's expetation, but no issue with letting people know about it.
JB: interested in recruiting -- err on the side of lettingpeople know.
JB: missing a URI that I need in the web incubation group. if somebody could help me out.
JB there has been a series of efforts over several decades to get AT and OS on developing an API for testing for cross platform compatibility Browser venders are moving this into a community group space.
JB: many benefits for people with disabilities and mainstream developers. Judy is passing on the news. Michael or Janina, do you have links you can drop in.
M: Wickid Witch group? Are brooms used instead of URL?
JB: JB pleas watch that spact.
<Judy> WICG Web Incubator Community Group
<Lisa_Seeman> ahhh
jb: Update on tools accessibility
JB a month ago we had a visit from Philippe Le Hégaret who is responsible to make the tools more accessible.
JB: we had bugs submitted includa
the COGA group. Michael has tried to move the comments into
more fixes in to the tools.
... PL may join us in two weeks to help move this along.
Michael, can you update?
MC: I have been asked to say the
issues. Michael is putting issues in a team space wiki. A lot
of the issues comes down to documentation. There are
accessibility issues including complexity.
... So far the tool we have heard concerns with github, IRC,
and more.
JB: we don't directly controls. Regarding tools that are not W3C. We need to manage expetations.
<MichaelC> Cognitive A11Y TF notes taken by Lisa
JB: communicate directly with the
tool owners to address accessibility bugs.
... there may be work arounds that we might do.Media Wiki and
problems come up. issues with low vision where there are
specific with magnified text which could mess up the whole
page.
... Michale did you capture this?MC: I have not captured media
wiki issues.
MC: I am trying to consolidate the issues coming from a variety of places.
LS: I was talking to a guy on wikimedia. Lost the German team on SKYPE, but lost them. Will try to find them.
JB can point developers to guidelines to help them. Michael will add WebEx to the issues page.
<Judy> agenda order is 7, 12
JB: Jeanne, presentations on Silver
JS: two well attended sessions
and one lightening talk during the evening.
... we have completed a working draft of stake holders map and
identified 30 roles or occupations that use wcag and mapped
that to how they use it.
GK: 350 people have nominated or self-nominated as stakeholders. We have 29 researchers who have expressed interest, of which 5 have selected their project. We have a list of research questions. We have started a Community Group for the researchers and will be encouraging researchers to sign up next week.
JB: Thank you. that was great. Getting a draft of the research questions to this group would be good.
<jeanne> https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/silver/wiki/Research_Projects
JB: I was curious
... it sounded like the focus was shifting to useability
... has there been a shift
JS: at the moment we are looking
atuseability.
... we are looking at an expanding scope that we can plug
in.
JB: some people did not understand what joinig a stakholders list, but happy
<jeanne> scribe: jeanne
GK: Interesting week. @@ Lab in
Belgium had an ePub summit. Days of presentations on the uptake
of ePub around the world. May become an annual event
... March 13 was a meeting with Board of Directors, Business
PUblishing Group and others.
... ePub Community Group for ePub 3 for future
development
... may include ePub Accessiiblity 1.1
... they will be at TPAC on the last two days 8 & 9
November - 2 day publishing summit
... this may attract people beyond the usual TPAC
attendees.
... very good kickoff.
JB: We had a recent merger
between W3C and IDPF. We are in a phase where we are trying to
better coordinate the work.
... If there are opportunities to work more closely in this
area, this is a good arena to address them.
KR: Will that be post-TPAC or during the TPAC.
GK: It will be the last two
days
... Bill @@ was the director of IDPF, and he is now the W3C
Staff Contact
... The meeting was also attended by Ivan Herman and Karen
Myers
JB: I don't think we announced it in the WAI-IG, so it might be a good idea to make an announcement on WAI-IG after Bill George and I sync up, which we need schedule
GK: We also are looking for people to test our reading systems testing methodology, and it would be good to announce that on WAI-IG.
Next meeting is 29 March
<George> JB: next call is March 29 at same time
<George> JB: thank you everybody
