<kirkwood> That would be great. Sorry have a dr appointment now
<lisa> scribe: JohnRochford
John and Mike will work on Accessible Authentication text this week, as quickly as possible.
Lisa: All should fill in the surveys .
John and Mike: We also don't fill out the surveys because we may not agree but don't want to vote against.
Michael: If people don't vote (no), there will be problems down the line.
Andrew: It's better to vote with comments, but also to vote without them.
<lisa> can you here us pietro?
<lisa> hear us?
<Pietro> I hear
John: To address Lisa's and Andrew's questions, says that one of his concerns, not the primary, is that SC don't go far enough to address user needs.
<Pietro> yes, I voted sometimes
Andrew: Please don't use the term "voting".
<AWK> Andrew: We aren't voting per se, just collecting feedback for the group to read/react to
<Pietro> My problem is not the process but the time to study topics
Lisa: I want to be sure everyone is not having any technical trouble with completing surveys.
Jan: I don't have technical trouble. My problem is that I'm not sure my understanding is as good as W3C long-time participants.
<AWK> +AWK
<lisa> https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/COGA_help/
<lisa> ea can you here us?
Lisa: It's very relevant that we
do vote (answer survey questions) and express any
concerns.
... Is Wednesday a good day for everyone?
Jan: Thursdays better.
Lisa: How about same time on Thursday?
<EA> Sadly I am desperately trying to get sound and having no luck. My headphone test on Webex is perfect and I can see you all talking but not nothing is coming out!
<Pietro> I cannot Wednesday, I can Thursday
Lisa: Will send Doodle poll.

<lisa> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-cognitive-a11y-tf/2017Jun/0009.html
<EA> I will try again ... no panic
Lisa: Before you respond to the
survey about the help and support SC, I would like to know of
any concerns with it.
... Example is that we addressed long blocks of text, and we
can get more evidence for that.
<lisa> Long blocks of text: are divide with heading, keywords are visually emphasized or a summary is provided
AWK: I'm reading that long blocks
of text can be addressed by *one* of the following.
... Should we be bumping up the AAA SC that already exists to
AA instead?
Lisa: We were told we could not change existing SC.
AWK: You weren't told we could not change the level of SC.
<lisa> Long blocks of text: are divide with heading, keywords are visually emphasized or a summary is provided
Lisa: Describing problems with existing SC.
<AWK> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-cognitive-a11y-tf/2017Jun/0009.html
<lisa> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-cognitive-a11y-tf/2017Jun/0009.html
Lisa: There were a few SC with overlap, but Jan's writing an email with the differences between them.
<Pietro> correct "are divide" into "they are divided"
EA: Some European nations have guidelines / requirements for some explicit way to simplify complex text.
<lisa> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-cognitive-a11y-tf/2017Jun/0009.html
<lisa> http://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/bitv_2_0/anlage_2.html
Jan: We are going to get pushback on what's a long doc, which is why we are focusing on long text.
Lisa: We could not find a definition people could live with for long docs.
<lisa> https://www.lingulab.de/content/barrierefreiheit-bitv-wcag/barrierefreiheit-bitv/
Mike: This would be especially useful for supplemantary information.
Lisa: People could see a summary
of sorts from headings, which are described elsewhere in the
WCAG.
... We are saying for numerical content, that we can do any of
these things (headings, summaries, etc.)
... Should there be an exception for single digits / real
numbers.
... Example - numerical content beyond real numbers
Jan: We should not need an alternative unless there is a need to manipulate the numbers.
Lisa: Jan, would you draft that exception?
Jan: Yes.
Lisa: Does anyone have any objections to the whole SC?
AWK: There's no organizing connections amongst the 3 parts. How could this be tweaked to make sense for more people?
Jan: Concern is about the cognitive load. I agree we could change the one statement at the beginning, and providing a little more explanation.
AWK: If we are talking about
nonstandard controls not having instructions, for example,
there may be no dependency on a term such as long
document.
... If this should be separated out maybe it could be separate
SC.
Lisa: Possibly what we could do
is that we could separate into different SC as long as doing so
would not need a long timeline, such as 2 months.
... Should we take out "one or more of the following"?
EA: Why do we need to define "long document"?
Lisa: Because, for example, the
SC needs to be testable.
... To EA, could we have a word count for each language?
Jan: We are going to have trouble finding a research base for that.
EA: Agrees with Jan.
<AWK> I'm starting a call at the top of the hour so need to drop
Have to go. Bye.
