Agenda Review & Announcements

Task Force Updates

Janina: Nothing specific. Groups are working.
... Pronunciation spec should be available by end of June
... Coga: Content usable module - our approval requested

<Joshue108> https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/WD-coga-usable-20200327/

Janina: Rachel is asking people to indicate their interest
... Coordinated call for concensus

Web & Machine Learning Workshop https://www.w3.org/2020/06/machine-learning-workshop/

Janina: Virtual workshop, originally scheduled for last month
... Limited participation. Who can attend from APA?
... Jason White, Josh are interested.

Gottfried: Is AI supported checking of websites for accessibility in scope?

<becky> link to mail list post where Rachel is asking people to indicate interest in meeting to review final COGA edits: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa/2020Jun/0004.html

Janina: Don't think so.

Matthew: Not aware of anything in our company.
... But interested in this.

John: Customs and Border Control, deque is looking at AI as a testing strategy. Also Level Access.
... Personalization work anticipates AI will be involved, e.g. simplification, conversion into symbols.
... Adding metadata on element level, food for AI
... By using taxonomy terms, etc., AI can act on it

Becky: Personalization looks perfect for AI

John: AI needs data to see patterns. We create new terms with meaning.

Becky: Sharon Snyder at IBM

Janina: Can we get this as a topic added to the workshop agenda?
... Or organize a separate workshop.

Josh: I will attend to learn rather than to speak much.

John: Maybe after the workshop, Josh and i could dedicate half an hour on this in our APA call.

<JF> +1

Gottfried: Maybe invite other companies to an APA call, e.g. Level Access.

<Joshue108> Happy to do that John and report back

John: Good idea, but first start discussion among us.

Janina: Also contact Peter Korn at Amazon.

John: Also somebody from Microsoft.

Janina: And Google.

John: Apple.
... We will have some data after the workshop to act upon.

Virtual TPAC 2020 Planning

Janina: Beginning to collect agenda items.
... Immersive Web will be a topic.
... Personalization
... Pronunciation
... Date is still unclear.
... Probably longer than one week due to timezone differences
... Maybe 2-4 weeks.
... Mid to late Oct, maybe in Nov.

Michael: It will definitely be virtual, not in person

FAST Progress -- Josh

Josh: Not much from my side.

Michael: No updates.

Josh: I will be working on simplifying the JSON object we are using.
... Then bring it to APA for review.
