Meeting minutes
XR Accessibility User Requirements: issues and publication request.
JW: Josh has published a commit URI to consider for publication by APA
http://
JW: APA will produce a Call For Consensus
The question is if there are reasons to not publish.
JS: To clarify, the request would be to publish this as a W3C note.
<Gives overview on what this means>
JW: Any concerns?
<Raja> No concerns
SH: I saw the email - had a look - 2 years in the making and good to go.
JW: Thanks for that
JB: Checks the acknowedgements.
<Gives overview on recent contribs>
JOC: Yes, I updated contributors list
JS: Anyone need more time?
JW: I've been through it in detail.
JS: We can still accept editorial comments.
These are not substantive.
If we are confident then this group should log a formal resolution
JS: Everyone here can vote on the CFC on the APA admin list
The CFC will go out today and last ~ a week
JW: Have heard no requests for review etc
Resolution: RQTF requests APA issues a CFC to publish XAUR http://
JS: Now please vote!
When you get the email from APA admin, give it a plus one and send.
<Raja> Ok
JW: Janina will write the CFC today
JW: This is ready for APA review and consideration after much work.
Thanks to all who contributed in various ways.
All the better and stronger for it.
As XR has a growing role.
JS: Regarding messaging Josh?
JOC: Yes, happy to say it is.
Planning on forthcoming publications
jgw: Asks Josh to provide us an overview ...
Joshue108: So, XAUR is now moving to CfC
Joshue108: remaining is NAUR and MAUR
Joshue108: Want's some sense of our expectations for the remainder of the calendar year
Joshue108: In part it's important for my funding to get NAUR finished
Joshue108: acknowledges the emergent SAUR
<Joshue108> JW: March for the NAUR sounds good
<Joshue108> I can contribute
<Joshue108> The current version reflects most of the requirements I'm aware of.
<Joshue108> Solid draft
jgw: Can devote my employer's time, ETS is interested in this moving forward
<Joshue108> That could be taken to FPWD after issues.
<Joshue108> JS: I've looked at the SAUR in detail this morning, I'm happy with it.
<Joshue108> Some nits, and one substantive thing around synchronising verbiage on glossary
<Joshue108> This may be an issue - audio vs video description
<Joshue108> I think this could go out in August
<Joshue108> So we could be done with comments via TPAC
<Joshue108> Steve had some placeholders that were to be filled in.
<Joshue108> Not a barrier but should be addressed
<Joshue108> JS: I didn't see that.
<Joshue108> SN: The only place left where there was a section to add, was at the end in the XR section
<Joshue108> Needs some review to see research on XR synchonisation
<Joshue108> JS: We can do to FPWD without that.
<Joshue108> Hot topic, useful to have an editors draft requesting community comment
<Joshue108> Thats ok in a FPWD
<Joshue108> SN: Ok
<Joshue108> We could take place holder out either.
<Joshue108> Or if the requirements would be different because its XR
<Joshue108> SN: Would need to look to make sure
<Joshue108> JW: We could introduce note - there are some style issues regarding the bibliography etc
<Joshue108> JOC: I can help with formatting etc for FPWD
<Joshue108> JS: Publishing in September would be good
<Joshue108> Could even be up to TPAC.
<Joshue108> JW: Timed text group are expecting the SAUR.
<Joshue108> JOC: Can we publish both?
<Joshue108> JS: I hear the need to finish NAUR, but its important we have a FPWD before TPAC.
<Joshue108> Would be great to get NAUR also published.
<Joshue108> SAUR has an impact on WCAG 3 also.
<Joshue108> We are helping by getting this out.
<Joshue108> JW: Would like to get SAUR done first.
<Joshue108> Want to agree that NAUR can follow
<Joshue108> JW: Not far away - larger issues can be put in as notes.
<Judy> [judy rejoins, and apologizes for the logistical glitch when I had to step off this call to take another, earlier]
<Joshue108> JS: We could probably do it, and publish soon
<Joshue108> Janinas ordering sounds good and could be done within weeks of each other.
<Joshue108> JS: Great chance to solialise
<Joshue108> JOC: I can dedicate time to this when back from hols and we can get SAUR and NAUR ready
Resolution: RQTF to prioritise a FPWD of SAUR followed by NAUR
<Joshue108> JOC: Apologies to Scott as I know you wanted to talk about Remote meetings a11y
<Joshue108> SH: All good
<Joshue108> The structured draft has received work since we discussed it.
<Joshue108> All the comments etc have been incorporated, the appendix has been worked through etc
<Joshue108> Lots of things have clicked into place
<Joshue108> Have updated the caption requirements, window resizing and more are updated
<Joshue108> Still things to do, but the question is things around hybrid meetings, presentation etc
<Joshue108> Some items to be done.
<Joshue108> My question is to look at where the space is to look at it and what we want to do.
<Joshue108> There is also the tips section - please do have a look.
<Joshue108> So how to progress?
<Joshue108> JB: Thanks Scott
<Joshue108> Its great to see the notes etc integrated into the doc
<Joshue108> I want to highlight two things, hybrid meetings first...
<Joshue108> There is more granularity needed - you need someone in the room and there are social and technical tips.
<Joshue108> We need some placeholder text at the top of the section - so we dont create an impression that this is comprehensive
<Joshue108> We need to change label on refs, link incorrect.
<Joshue108> JB: Now it is cleaned up RQTF should review
<Joshue108> JW: A question - we have two publication efforts in progress, SAUR and NAUR
<Joshue108> This doc is in a wiki, so its not subject to note track doc review process
<Joshue108> where do you see this being published?
<Joshue108> Not clear
<Joshue108> JB: We don't know yet.
<Joshue108> For sure more than a wiki.
<Joshue108> we want to evolve it - not sure if it is NOTE track but could be.
<Joshue108> Could be a WAI resource, happy to hear views.
<Joshue108> SH: I'm happy for it to be more easily edited.
<Joshue108> I think it could be a NOTE
<Joshue108> It does speak to different audience. Could be an education piece.
<Joshue108> There is a demand for this info
<Raja> If I want to disseminate to education or research, what are the steps?
<Joshue108> JW: To ask if it was to be a resource or NOTE, that would engage wide review etc. When do you think you would have it in an appropriate spot.
<Raja> like -- presentation, poster, or publication
<Joshue108> JB: <Reads Raja's question>
<Zakim> Judy, you wanted to comment on remote meetings after Scott's comments and to and to
<Joshue108> JB: I'm thinking this is as a working group NOTE- takes time to do that.
<Joshue108> Grabbing comments on wiki stuff can be tricky.
<Joshue108> Rajas comment is good as we needed this over a year ago, and particularly we need to promote awareness of this.
<Joshue108> If we do a formal group NOTE we should have a PR version
<Joshue108> JS: I wanted to speak in favour of NOTE as it is a well known process
<Joshue108> This idea is well socialised
<Joshue108> If we invent something new, we have issues with getting feedback, as well as moving from a wiki to a HTML document
<Joshue108> JS: Not so hard, style sheets are simple. @@Pandoc?
<Joshue108> JW: Not e'one can change a controlled doc
<Joshue108> JW: I can take care of format conversion and work with Scott to make sure its an accessible editing process.
<Joshue108> SH: I can do HTML
<Joshue108> JW: I can get a branch into a repo.
<Joshue108> SH: The resource was useful to have a year ago etc, but there is also guidance here that has not been implemented
<Joshue108> It also provides guidance on things that need to be added
<Joshue108> RK: I was thinking we could share it with the community...
<Joshue108> In research access community, there are user experience reports etc
<Joshue108> that would be good for the wiki. How can we get community feedback in?
<Joshue108> When it comes to education we should include that.
<Joshue108> To cover feedback like automatic captioning and show all our collective efforts.
<Joshue108> JW: If we had a FPWD on this, that would help as it is designed to get broad public review etc
<Joshue108> JS: On the messaging we try to get the widest response we can - create that list
<Joshue108> Get comment on what is good and bad
<Joshue108> It would have been good to have it, but we would be versioning it now.
<Joshue108> We've learned a lot - we can put this out and put editors notes where we have questions.
<Joshue108> SH: +1
<Joshue108> JB: Will withhold comment - getting this into education and beyond it important
