Gottfried's review:

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa/2019Jul/0050.html

jgw: Notes that XR has interesting dependencies
... Also interesting transformations needed to meet user needs
... Very interesting architectural issues here

sh: Thought some of the definitions were presented in a confusing way, vr and then mixed r
... Also interesting questions re controllers for driving an xr environment
... for a11y having a functional controller is important
... meaning customizable controller interface, an API that can be implemented by other devices

jgw: Suggests relationship to gaming, and we could benefit from Matthew's insights

jb: Wonders what's most timely for RQTF attention? What can we achieve before TPAC?

jgw: My impression that WebGL dependency is substantial

jb: Need to know scope of WebGPU. Will it solve our challenges? Or just make progress in that direction.

js: Suggest there's a curb cut opportunity here, the wider world wants a semantic backbone for rendering, too, even if they don't know it yet

jgw: SSuggests considering AOM?

js: Notes COGA req for relabeling controls by understanded symbology

jgw: Could AOM do that for us?
... We will talk about this again next week, including particularly Josh's use cases draft
... Summarizes that all keep reading, and APA will take up scheduling cross group discussions

jb: Possibility of additional XR work being brought to W3C, will keep us advised
... Wants feedback on XAUR and XAUR-Media for the landing page especially

RQTF wiki - documents for review.

jgw: Any further feedback on the docs referenced from the updated wiki?
... So, we all need to read more
... Please use the wiki as the reading list

jb: Concerned that the document is overly rehab focussed.
... XR is fabuluous for rehab, but we need it everywhere, not just rehab training
... We want it for shopping, for education, for distance communications, for gaming
... So, looking at our list I'm concerned we're not presenting a comprehensive balanced picture of the user needs
... Rather than restating granular bits of WCAG, it would be good to remind people of WCAG and/or FAST
... Think XAUR may not be optimally structured

sh: Strongly agree

<Judy_> s/XR is fabulous/Sure, XR is fabulous/

sh: interoperability of controllers is important

jb: Thanks for helping me clarify that framing is important

jgw: Need to explore SR and its dependencies for the reason of the tech that will be built using them

sh: Want to acknowledge overall XAUR is an excellent doc!

CAPTCHA Note - update.

<Judy_> [JB: yes, very glad to see the XAUR early draft!]

RESOLUTION: RQTF finds work on the CAPTCHA revisions is now complete and recommends APA publish the latest Editor's Draft as the new W3C Note on CAPTCHA.
