agendum 5 -- [Updating ARIA 1.2 due to IDL implementations (exit and re-enter CR?)](https://github.com/w3c/aria/issues/1598) -- taken up [from jamesn]
17:17:48 [Jory]
joanie: if we can put the spec BACK TO nullable DOMstring we have 3 implementations, if not we are back to 0
17:18:08 [Jory]
joanie: whould we pull the 1.2 CR, fix it, then put it back up?
17:18:18 [Jory]
james: why was it changed in the first place?
17:19:18 [Jory]
cyns: here was feedback that in #1058
17:20:17 [Jory]
correction: there was feedback in 1058 that prompted the change. AOM working group noted that there have been IDL changes that need to taken into account
17:20:54 [Jory]
james: let's make sure we understand the reason for the change before we revert it
17:21:18 [Jory]
cyns: let's get feedback from jamesc
17:21:36 [Jory]
james: let's do a draft PR for this change
17:21:51 [Jory]
cyns: will do a PR for next week
17:23:13 [Jory]
joanie: we also need to change the narrative and normative text explaining the validation and handling of an absent value
17:25:24 [Jory]
joanie: there may be role-by-role differences for what the default value should be
17:27:33 [Jory]
jamesn: please set implementers as reviewers of the draft PR
17:27:40 [Jory]
cyns: do we have tests for this yet?
17:28:07 [Jory]
joanie and syn will try to find those tests
17:28:23 [Jory]
correction: syn = cyns
17:29:41 [Jory]
jamesn: will need a CFC if we want to enter a new CR

17:29:54 [Zakim]
... taken up [from jamesn]
17:31:33 [Jory]
valerie: I think all the tests are written but there may be open PRs to be review
17:31:44 [Jory]
jamesn: happy to help with reviews
17:33:04 [Jory]
joanie: a good next step would be to test the new w3c validator
17:33:21 [Jory]
jamesn: IBM has one too (that may be OSS)
17:36:08 [Jory]
jamesn:does anyone know of another agent we can file issues against? It would be good to have a second one. W3 validator?
17:36:27 [Jory]
valerie: not sure if that one does aria 1.2 validation
17:38:08 [Jory]
jamesn: not every Author MUST statement is going to be machine checkable, but we should do the best we can.
17:38:24 [Jory]
jamesn: maybe the W3C one is not the best candidate
17:39:38 [pkra]
https://github.com/validator/validator/issues/
17:40:33 [Jory]
jamesn: (looking at the repo) they do have some ARIA validation in here
17:40:56 [Jory]
validator repo: https://github.com/validator/validator/issues/
