"ACT Review Process - discussion on level of requirements/detail in the process vs. prevention of making it too burdensome" taken up [from maryjom] 14:14:21 https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/conformance-testing/wiki/ACT_Review_Process 14:15:29 MaryJo: Shadi wanted to have a short discussion on the review process - i.e. the process of making sure that the rules are ready for publication as ACT-rules. Contribution, review, review with the AG etc. 14:16:22 MaryJo: We have to find the balance between openness and rigourous submission and review process, and wants to know what peoples views are on this 14:18:57 Sharu likes the flow where rules go through review, then implemented and then wetted and tested. On the comment: can we reject something? If something doesn't meet the requirements it automatically gets rejected 14:19:58 Would we accept something that doesn't contain all the parts from the rule format 14:20:56 MaryJo: do we want to document these things in the process document - i.e. potential reasons for not accepting 14:21:00 q+ 14:21:55 rdeltour has joined #wcag-act 14:22:22 Stein Erik: Thinks it is important to require a minimum of information to ensure a higher standard to the ocntributions 14:22:40 MaryJo: Thinks we should accept only submissions that contain the required parts of the ACT format 14:23:25 Sharu: We currently have certain points, but doesn't think they are explicit enough to discard contributions or to decide if they are accurate enough to be accepted 14:23:27 s/Sharu/Charu/ 14:23:46 MaryJo: we need to define a level of requirements for accpetance 14:24:33 Action: Shadi: Establish a minimum level of requirements for accepting a contribution 14:24:34 Created ACTION-23 - Establish a minimum level of requirements for accepting a contribution [on Shadi Abou-Zahra - due 2017-09-18]. 14:26:08 MaryJo: Shadi didn't put in an action number of implementation. We would need a number of implementations before passing on to the AGWG. Typically for most things in the W3C two implementations are required. 14:27:06 Mo: Isn't it two for a success criteria or specification. Should this apply to a rule? It could be accepted as a draft until a second implementation is in place 14:27:59 Sharu, Shadis responce is that we should work into the criteria; reasons for acceptance/non-acceptance. 14:29:17 Charu: We have to define what lack of quality means 14:29:51 Charu: criteria would fall under submission 14:30:27 MaryJo: reasons for rejecting could fall under the peer review to know what we are looking for 14:31:02 Charu: should go in both. We do not want to waste everyones time if it doesn't conform to certain criteria - also after peer review 14:32:43 Anne: does it say anywhere that we are looking for the balance between false positive and false negatives? 14:34:59 MaryJo: where the rule make generate more false positives the number of implementation may have to be higher 14:37:10 Mo: suggests to include in the maintainance section a clause on the process if implementations of rules show too many false positives/negatives 14:39:14 Anne: Going back to adding the reasons to drop a rule if it lacks quality. Should that be its own sections since rules could be dropped at all stages in the process - e.g. in maintainance phase 14:39:42 Mo: Instead of deleted we deprecate or quarantine 14:40:33 MaryJo: Would be nice to have states of the rule going through this process. By attaching to the rule in submission which state it is in. Are there issues? Is it in implementation etc 14:40:50 Anne: Didn't we agree to use tagging for the state rules are in? 14:41:13 tobias has joined #wcag-act 14:41:16 MaryJo: It should be added to this review process document 14:44:04 zakim, take up next 14:44:04 I see a speaker queue remaining and respectfully decline to close this agendum, maryjom 14:44:11 q 14:44:21 q? 14:44:32 ack sk 14:44:39 zakim, take up next 14:44:39 agendum 3.

We would want to point to the review process and define what are the required parts of a rule som submitters will know what we are expecting 14:49:09 Stein Erik: Suggests criteria should be kept in the review process document 14:49:30 Mo: It is important to have a reference to the requirements and keep it fairly short 14:51:17 MaryJo: give contributors q pointer to the resources they will need, an example, and anything to make the process simpler. There has to be a balance between "learn by doing" and being to prescriptive 14:53:11 MaryJo: TPAC registration still open with a deadline for early registration in October. 14:53:38 MaryJo: Our next meeting will be on 18th of September 14:55:07 rrsagent, generate minutes 14:55:07 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2017/09/11-wcag-act-minutes.html MoeKraft 14:56:43 Thanks, Mo 14:58:30 trackbot end meeting 14:58:30 Zakim, list attendees 14:58:30 As of this point the attendees have been skotkjerra, MaryJoMueller, MoeKraft, martin_, cpandhi, (22, mins, late) 14:58:38 RRSAgent, please draft minutes 14:58:38 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2017/09/11-wcag-act-minutes.html trackbot 14:58:39 RRSAgent, bye 14:58:39 I see 2 open action items saved in http://www.w3.org/2017/09/11-wcag-act-actions.rdf : 14:58:39 ACTION: Shadi: where are we with the accessibility issues in the draft [1] 14:58:39 recorded in http://www.w3.org/2017/09/11-wcag-act-irc#T14-12-38 14:58:39 ACTION: Shadi: Establish a minimum level of requirements for accepting a contribution [2] 14:58:39 recorded in http://www.w3.org/2017/09/11-wcag-act-irc#T14-24-33
