<cweidner> +1

<EA> +1

Lisa: our user research document, helped us collect and organise.

also the issue papers - which are more horizontal compaired to vertical research

neither have been published but have a wealth of information.

Then there is Gap analysis - highlights where there are problems.

also not published

<LisaSeemanKest> https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YH4YETBmAdhfL9p8FK5ATUiXDGibeJh66psQCSUAvLQ/edit#gid=0

so wht are our priorities - see this spread sheet

4 tabs to make more managable

from Rachael's emial it seems we will work on one bits topic at any time. Then 2 or 3 Research/pub items

<EA> Has personalisation been missed?

may have projects with the various groups at any time so can track them

lisa: personalization under AG

EA: also soe issue papers

Lisa: ongoing work so have a added to groups tab.

ea: yes happy as interested in symbol personalisation etc

lisa: about to go to CR - so crucial time to review - is a high priority for us
… making it "active" in the spreadsheet

Rachael should include AG and ACT

<Rachael> stevelee: The WAI website (Shawn) should be on this list. They have content

steve: add WAI website editorial

lisa: also W3C tools

<Rain> +1 to this conversation and having us involved

<Jennie> +1 it operationalizes are participation. Really like Rain's suggestion.

<Jennie> our - not are

<Albert> Question: Do we also send liaison to RQTF (research question task force)?

KrisAnne: working with everone is actually goo as we want to cover all people not a suset

<stevelee> rain: suggest one person nominated as contact for each group to better manage the interactions and make less daunting

Lisa: agree, was toying with that

<krisannekinney> me apologies but i need to drop.

<EA> Is there an overall formal list of liasion people for all the groups?

John: agree should formalise liaisons -

<stevelee> lisa: at least one person - and some tooling for tracking

<stevelee> +1

<Albert> +1

<cweidner> +1

JohnK: would be useful to have a plain language explanation for each sheet

<EA> +1

<Rain> +1

<JustineP> +1

albert: i'm comfortable with this approach

Rachael: more TFs are looking at collaboration, we are leading. AG chairs are looking at this an may be including more common ideas

<LisaSeemanKest> acl a

albert: can I get a better picture of what liaison will be and do

lisa: someone joins another group to keep a view of what they are doing. so APA review other publications for accessibility. Our Liaison will pick up on things coga might be interested in getting involved in.

<johnkirkwood> liason: also serve as a single point of contact, too. i feel

john: that often help single point of contact so they do pass issues that come up

<Albert> Thank you everyone for explaining

lisa: yes but do not make decision on behalf of TF

steve: headsup and keep info flowing

lisa: lots to do but this will help us not spinning our wheels.
… propose we make a start next week
… a few from each sheets

<LisaSeemanKest> 2-3 reaserch topic ?

jennie: when we talk about topics can we get idea of proposed timescales

<Rachael> I agree with 18 months for mental health

lisa: lets try filling it in... eg mental health: 18 months, issue paper: 3 months

Rachael: a question of what the TF want to focus on

rain: sensible to limit to 2 rather than 3

<Jennie> +1 and then also updates as appropriate

steve suggest we make sure the research behind each pattern is traceable. As well as adding new research

EA: do we have a mental health expert in the TF? The previous one seems ot have moved on

Lisa: review methodology and recruit who we need - both academics and representatives of people with such issues.

have separated this out.

EA: probably is one of the largest and most complex

lisa: we dont HAVE ot do it.

EA but we decided early it should be included in our scope.

rachael: als othink is incredibly import and and either we tackle or new set up new TF, but so much overlap

lisa: 3 things

1) review method and recruit

2) review mental health

3) community engagement with external research

+1

<LisaSeemanKest> methodolgy and then work on mental health
