<Judy> trackbot, thanks

<trackbot> You're very welcome, Judy.

<scribe> scribe: CharlesL

MC: WCAG 2.2 is coming soon.

JB: we will want to add a lot of messaging for that release
... , can we use the 2.1 messaging more or less?

MC: will need to look at it more closer

JB: expectation setting would be a good start for 2.2
... , probably more than for a typical update.
... , anything more Michael? Tzviya said nothing for her. Janina?
... , maybe a FPWD for XAUR sets. MC nothing on aria or other groups?

MC: aria 1.3 is coming up soon, and silver is coming up in Feb.

JB: those are FPWD so that is a little more involved.
... , Janina anything from APA?

Janina: several things, from TF: Research Questions, WebRTC on a 2.0 spec use-cases (pretty much ready to go, go for CFC.
... , use-cases & requirements for XAUR
... , we have some use-cases and looking to the community for more.

<Joshue108> XAUR draft

<Joshue108> Accessible RTC Draft

<Joshue108> http://raw.githack.com/w3c/apa/AccessibleRTC/rtc/index.html

Janina: , personalization TF looking for wide review for module 1, close to CR status and wide review which is important for 2.2 since its once of its dependancies.
... , pronunciation TF looking at text to speech, gap analysis and adding an explainer, and discussed with Lieone during out call today. looking to get this to a FPWD even for the explainer as up to date as we can.

JB: thank you Janina.
... , effects of WCAG 2.2 is that supporting something already in play. MC you are up to date on that correct?

MC: I don't recognize the title.

Charles: simplification I believe that is the WCAG dependancy.

MC: this is currently an at-risk until the personalization module 1 goes to rec.

Judy: if you are confident that the timing will work, but if you haven't confirmed that you are in sync. dependance, so you may need to be ahead of WCAG.

MC: I haven't seen a draft of the success criteria, but it may be at risk.

JB: other work has been held up in the past when parallel in the past.

Janina: I think we talked timelines in TPAC.

MC: I do remember thinking we are good, but we need to check on timing , we are not focusing on the timeline you are working on, but you want a success criteria for this hasn't been proposed to the group, we would need the techniques referencing the work you are doing in personalization.

Judy: this is important, could I ask you both Janina & Michael maybe Charles, and and timing expectations and checkin points so it stays coordinated.

MC: Yes I can be there and Charles needs to be there.

Judy: Janina you talked about 3 or 4 documents at the same time, and Joshue you may remember this. The group of folks XUAR is this another set of guidelines / requirements so it could be miss understood. if we are introducing RTC usecases if these are new kinds of documents in the WAI space we may need a general blog explaining all of this.

Joshue: we need to be precise in our messaging, and bigger question emerging tech useful information and how this fits into WCAG / Silver we need to coordinate for sure.

JB: Janina, any comments for you on who your audiences etc.

Janina: Yes I have talked to everyone and messaging is important

JB: does anyone spot any intersections with your work? Aira connections, publishing etc. XUAR, Personalization and pronunciation etc.

Tzviya, if you have a link to the pronunciation work because we are working on audio publications. Marisa has been paying attension.

JB: I know of audible.com, is there an expectation/timeline for pronunciation / Narrator unless emotional markup language. does W3C need to pay attention to

Tzviya: right now there is a real desire for human voice, that is what is selling.

Upcoming W3C workshop on Web and Machine Learning https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/8238

JB: this will be in late march 24/25 a11y will be discussed.
... , critical for people for a11y issues to be discussed at this workshop.
... , OCAD university I will bring this to their attention.

Janina, I am going to look into this personally intersted.

Kathy: David ONeil on TPG side is an expert in ML and AI

JB: can you mention that to him?

Kathy: Yes, I will send an email and cc you.

JB: yes there is also a link in the agenda
... , workshops are critical for joining w3c, so it is critical for having these accessibility concerns.

Josh: It looks interesting, but I would need to go in order to see what is needed in that space.

JB: we can talk about that offline. may be a good place for us to dive into.
... , anyone else of people to bring into this discussion?

Tzviya: Publishing is interested (consumer side) and will bring this to the group.
... , I need to do more reading on it and will pass it along to WG.

JB: getting a11y added to the scope for these new emerging WG chaters.

Latest RQTF user case/user scenario work

Digital publishing update?

Tzviya: I don't think there is much to report on. the audio books Candidate release in November, we are working on testing now. we will add a note on the packaging. checkins are how testing is going. not a lot of feedback. EPUB is holding steady the Publishing Steering committee is having a F2F in Feb. the Publishing WG charter is up in July, so discussions on that what happens next is
... , will EPUB will become a rec track or hold steady? so lot up in the air.

Charles: community group working on a Best practices on discoverability of accessible EPUB and its metadata

JB: are you missing any connections with other groups? is there any additional intersection. maybe there is nothing.

Tzviya: I am pretty comfortable, dpub-aria is what it is, but I think we have worked it out with associated documents
... , working with james and Joanie on our needs.

Latest RQTF user case/user scenario work

JB: this has been covered a little with the upcoming documents. anything to highlight?
... , fairly high volume of RTC / XAUR.

Janina: verifiable credentials is another area we are looking into

JB: AR in VR and very specific things that would be a benefit in that combined env.
... , looking at objects and have an AR in the VR space (remote collaborative work) could introduce a new user need as we would need to be accessible.
... , Josh does XUAR cover this?

Josh: No it wouldn't cover it.
... , AR within VR is a technical implementation. a mix
... , implementation detail maybe?

JB: I think it may go beyond an implementation detail. Micro apps may be a place for this
... mini-apps and AR/VR combined and it may cross several areas. we may introduce it into XAUR, and maybe its not the right place. Does anyone have thoughs? Janina?

Janina: not immediately.

JB: to working on a document in VR.

Josh: collaborating on modeling you could have engineering a part for a car etc. and someone with a disability could also collaborate if their AT could interact with the VR/AR abstraction.

JB: there may be some ARIA support needed.

Joanie: Let us know happy to help.

JB: does anyone have info share for today?

<scribe> …, new focus that may have implications for other groups?

UNKNOWN_SPEAKER: , none..ok.

Next W3C CG id'd by APA WG that is in need of a Community Group liaison

Janina: conversational interfaces
... , I don't have the URI handy, but there is a CG on that.
... , will reach out once we got the explainer for pronunciation

JB: focus on when we need someone to plug in.

Josh: privacy space that I joined Ping.
... , privacy and a11y and will have some role, but discovery phase right now. now tracking that group from now on.

JB: a11y / privacy intersection or 3 things Privacy/security/a11y together or all 3?

Josh: I think it is all 3.

JB: Yeah!

CSUN meeting plans -- any pending questions?

JB: which groups are meeting that are not squared away.
... , I think it is set but any issues for these F2F meetings?

Janina: Silver is meeting is covered, all food, space, timing etc. all done

JB: we are at the time we need to announce since 2 months out now.
... , can you send out this to this mailing list.

MC: announcement sent out to silver mailing list

JB: I think we need to make a broader announcement including this list
... , any other groups to confirmed to meet.

??: we haven't yet but happy to look into it.

JB: may need to get Hardware support. certain issues that could introduce new angles to a11y.

MC: AIRA authoring practices WAI tutorials format. not sure if morphing … central way resource self consistent covering a broad set of topics and LV should be aware.
