[jb: notes meeting starting late due to logistics]

FYI

scott: Congratulations

judy: Thanks for update. Can confirm that W3C has had people representing different roles in different groups.

XR accessibility

jgw: XR engages multiple specifications. We need to develop a list of which

<Judy> https://immersive-web.github.io/webxr/

<Judy> https://www.khronos.org/webgl/

jgw: notes XR Device API, which in turn rests on existing WebGL
... Future versions could other rendering specs
... Gamepad API for input is included
... New grx specs for a WebGPU under development in a community group

<Judy> https://www.imore.com/putting-web-graphics-pedal-metal

jgw: May be more ...

<Judy> https://www.khronos.org/gltf/

jb: Excellent review
... The canvas dependency raises a11y concerns

<Judy> https://www.w3.org/community/gpu/

sh: Can you explain a bit more about what WebGPU is?

jb: I'm not the best explainer for that
... Notes this GL transmission protocol is already a Rev 2 spec
... May be helpful to a11y
... GLTF CG has explainers
... The GPU spec is expected to go to a W3C WG

<jasonjgw> Janina: asks with whom we could have a conversation to gain a good overview of the documents, in addition to reviewing them.

jgw: Agrees to read ahead, then a conversation

sh: Agree we need th insights

<jasonjgw> Janina notes these are foundational technologies that will appear in a range of applications over time - not just those traditionally associated with XR (e.g., publishing, real-time communication).

<jasonjgw> Janina agrees with Judy that APA needs to be familiarized with these specifications; RQTF culd be a useful vehicle for doing so.

jgw: Let's give ourselves some time to read using the links above.
... We can then work toward a meeting with an expert guest
... One we might announce more broadly

update on CAPTCHA

Use cases, user scenarios, requirements

jgw: These are the various draft documents in preparation mainly from Josh
... We should identify any issues so far
... We want to get these docs sufficiently drafted to ask for wider comment and response
... Notes many are listed in today's agenda email
... Judy added a few more

jgw: Any comments yet from anyone?

<Judy> https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/task-forces/research-questions/wiki/Main_Page

<Judy> [jb: I had to go through 5 layers of pages to get to RQTF current work... let's please not add another]

<Judy> [jb: better if we can surface the lower-down content in the level above]

<Judy> [jw: yes, can do that, pull it up one layer]

update on CAPTCHA

<jasonjgw> Janina notes that the comment period closes Friday.

<jasonjgw> Substantive issues raised in comments (even if slightly after the close of the comment period) will be addressed.

<jasonjgw> Janina plans to clarify that we aren't providing a catalogue of all CAPTCHA-related products and technologies, and that we are choosing what we cite selectively.

<jasonjgw> If there are no more comments, a Call for Consensus to advance to Note status will be circulated to APA.

<jasonjgw> Janina notes a single paragraph of difference between the current editor's draft and the wide review draft - resulting from changes suggested by internationalization review.

Scheduling

jgw: Just a general request for info on people's availability for the next month or so

<jasonjgw> Janina: available through August, up close to TPAC. We probably won't meet the week after TPAC.

janina: Will be here up to TPAC

Steve: Will be here

sh: wishes it were summer, but will be here

jb: Will be unavailable week of Aug 7 which is Geek Week at W3C, well, but given RQTF works on emerging technologies, I may indeed be here
... 21 & 28 will be gone
