Should we plan on a week, a month, what is preferred? 19:05:11 jeanne: We are asking that it be two weeks, or ask for an extension. 19:05:25 jeanne: maybe you need more info, or maybe you need to write up a use case. 19:05:44 jeanne: I think it would depend on how much time to write up the use case. Getting more info may be out of your control. 19:05:50 janina: That's what we want for one of them. 19:06:08 janina: The other one we aren't quite ready to have an agreement in the group on how to respond.

May add more computation into the mix. 19:38:22 Jeanne: Is that "higher points"? 19:38:35 q+ 19:38:46 ack sajkaj 19:38:48 janina: yes, it makes a big difference in comprehension. It's achievable in asynch media. A bit more of an issue in real time. Depends on how fast you type. 19:39:21 janina: In Belgium, the news is delayed so the captions can be synced. We have a wiki that's 50% or 60% close to being ready. 19:39:35 +1 CART transcription is usually around 80%-85% accurate 19:39:41 janina: We never talked about in wcag is the need to have audio and visual synced within some tolerances. 19:39:54 +1 19:39:57 janina: People that may not have disabilities actually become "disabled" if the sync is off enough. 19:40:03 q+ 19:40:04 q+ 19:40:10 jeanne: When ready to present, could you let Shawn and I know? 19:40:19 janina: Yes.

If kept in the same scale, then the extra point only occurs if the previous points are reached. Then the passing number is adjusted. The need to pass within each functional need category ensures the outcomes balance. If the AAA is in a different level or test set then the risk is mitigated that way 19:42:50 s/0/0 and ARIA/ 19:43:01 js: not current topic; but at method level 19:43:08 ack Faz 19:44:31 janina: ...fortunately we have the resolution availble, we can sync to the milisecond.

The test results that would mean that today’s AAA would result in a score at the Silver level (as opposed to the Bronze level) 19:51:20 sl: yes, that was my interpretation 19:51:33 jf: agrees 19:51:45 Triple A across functional needs or ad hoc? 19:52:17 ack Chuck 19:52:17 Chuck, you wanted to ask that is not how i interpreted it 19:52:35 ca: heard it a bit different ... 19:52:53 ca: if you meet X you might get higher by also doing y 19:53:36 sl: think it's two different topics; how we designate; then how test results are scored 19:53:39 q+ 19:54:32 Another example: (2.2.2) Pause, Stop, Hide "morphs" to (2.2.4) Interruptions 19:54:43 js: in all cases AAA gives more points -- if that's not clear, we need to make it clear 19:55:04 ack Fazio 19:56:09 js: whether or not are critical errors determines whether mandatory or optional 19:57:20 Q+ 19:57:21 sl: was confused between doing the math vs how we do the migration 19:57:25 q+ to ask that we need to do the math later, there are many ways to implement "more points" 19:57:57 q+ 19:58:09 ack Jemma 19:58:28 js: notes that much COGA has been AAA; so we need to consider how to integrate for equal treatment of disabilities 19:58:44 jema: asks about aCT? 19:58:58 js: Only a few ACT for AAA; so it can't be just ACT 19:59:07 ack Melanie 19:59:08 ack Ch 19:59:08 Chuck, you wanted to ask that we need to do the math later, there are many ways to implement "more points" 19:59:53 Melanie: recalls slide deck that AAA would be bonus and not penalize if not accomplished; thought AAA would not be critical errors 20:01:09 js: Unfortunately, some things didn't make it into the fpwd for various process reasons; I remember the question and wanted to get back there; my mistake! 20:01:45 rrsagent, make minutes 20:01:45 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2021/02/26-silver-minutes.html jeanne 20:01:51 KimD has left #silver 20:34:06 zakim, bye 20:34:06 leaving.
