Please review this link for details. 14:03:43 tink has joined #Silver 14:03:43 Shawn: thank you, looks very interesting 14:04:00 present+ Léonie (tink) 14:04:06 Bruce: Can you share Web page announcement? 14:04:06 https://www.w3.org/WAI/about/projects/wai-coop/symposium1/ 14:04:18 https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/wiki/Shape_the_Future_Symposium_2021 14:04:31 ToddLibby has joined #silver 14:04:40 present+ 14:05:57 Zakim, take up next item 14:05:57 agendum 1 -- Guideline drafts in the migration outline working session -- taken up [from Lauriat] 14:06:19 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aCRXrtmnSSTso-6S_IO9GQ3AKTB4FYt9k92eT_1PWX4/edit#heading=h.t5lsu36jh50k 14:06:34 thanks, that coop page was the one I saw yesterday and was thinking of as we talked 14:06:35 https://www.w3.org/WAI/about/projects/wai-coop/ 14:07:25 Shawn: I wanted to walk folks through the outline map. This link goes directly to a location that is a little cleaner. The exercise is to write rough guidelines to show the general format for WCAG 3. 14:07:52 ... I added 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 Language of page and language of parts 14:08:24 ... these could be seen as just part of using HTML correctly, according to spec 14:08:52 q+ 14:09:35 ... Sara has added some user needs related to errors, and the guideline itself as error prevention. 14:09:59 ... it is possible links might be grouped with error prevention, given similarities with adding a helpful label 14:10:29 Wilco: We are working on tests for language of page and language of parts as well 14:10:41 q+ 14:10:48 ack w 14:11:08 q- where 14:11:26 https://www.w3.org/TR/personalization-semantics-content-1.0/ 14:12:01 Janina: noting that we want to point out the purpose of a link and things like that, APA is going to candidate recommendation in a very predictable way, that browsers will pick up. 14:12:44 ... not only can we support identifying purpose of links, but we can also translate among AAC symbols sets (for COGA) 14:12:46 happy to help, it has a been long time since I used bliss 14:13:25 ack sajkaj 14:14:24 Shawn: Moving up in the outline, there is error identification and error notification, I left those as is, since Sara had already drafted those. 14:14:57 User need(s) - Consistency in menus and navigation benefits people with cognitive impairments and people who are blind. Consistency in the access to navigation is also important. Consistency in interactions with components is also important. Task-based assessment will be important here. 14:15:38 Shawn: The grouping above that is Consistent Nav, Consistent Identification, and Concurrent Input, and target the user need I just pasted in 14:15:38 q+ to ask about Jake's proposal? 14:15:54 Guideline: Provide similar structure and functionality via consistent paths & interactions 14:15:58 Shawn: I added a drafted guideline for this ^ 14:16:05 ack jeanne 14:16:05 jeanne, you wanted to ask about Jake's proposal? 14:16:29 Jeanne: This is great. Delighted you are working on this. Wondering if you have considered Jake's proposal with this? 14:17:36 Shawn: Definitely. I began with this, but thought drafting the guidance was an important step in moving forward with trying Jake's structure. And working on the user needs mapping is also on the agenda for today. 14:18:51 ... thought is we can take the concrete guidance and then map that into Jake's structure 14:19:53 Shawn: The next group above that is 3.2.1 3.2.2 and 3.2.5. This one didn't have user needs listed, but did have methods. 14:19:54 When any user interface component receives focus, it does not initiate a change of context. 14:19:59 When the user interacts with a component, context remains the same. 14:20:04 Warn the user that context will change when they interact with a component. 14:20:10 Only change context on user request. 14:22:03 Shawn: I boiled this down to a guideline to hopefully cover all of the types of focus: e.g. keyboard, AT, cognitive conceptual 14:22:23 +1 to cognitive focus -- good catch! 14:22:26 ... something to test out and see how it works 14:23:26 Shawn: Are there any comments on the over-all level of detail at this stage, without wordsmithing 14:23:41 ... we are aiming to give a sense of the overall structure that WCAG 3 will likely have 14:23:55 ... with the understanding that it will change significantly 14:24:29 Leonie: As someone who has been watching from a distance, this does look like a good way to move forward 14:25:14 +1 to getting the overall structure before worrying too much about details 14:25:21 Jeanne: This is also in response to a request for an overall view from AGWG 14:25:43 Shawn: Moving up again in the document, there is pronunciation, reading level and abbreviations 14:26:05 User need(s) - ambiguous interpretation of words. Does it also apply to speech input? Would this apply more to people who are deaf, whose words may not be easily understood by machines. Speech as a mode of input should be linked to Pronunciation, so that people don’t have to look in two places. (example: read, read, red) 14:26:41 q+ to note APA Pronunciation TF work 14:27:17 Shawn: user need is to provide the correct pronunciation when that impacts meaning 14:27:18 q+ to say this was intended to be more COGA oriented than speech input oriented 14:27:29 https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/task-forces/pronunciation/ 14:27:34 ack sajkaj 14:27:34 sajkaj, you wanted to note APA Pronunciation TF work 14:27:41 another favorite example of mine is wind the watch versus the wind blows 14:28:00 janina: APA is hoping that by the time WCAG 3 is ready for CR, this specification will be in play 14:28:50 SC 3.1.6 was originally from proposals from Japan. Kanji characters can have multiple ways of reading. 14:28:51 q+ to ask about intenationalisation 14:30:08 Jeanne: my understanding was that this was not oriented toward speech input, but was oriented toward COGA, should we add speech input? 14:30:14 Guideline: Augment text with ways to better understand it 14:30:25 ack tink 14:30:25 tink, you wanted to ask about intenationalisation 14:30:51 Leonie: How English-specific is this? Do all languages have these? 14:31:26 Shawn: They all have their different systems and it is definitely going to get complicated as we explore different languages 14:31:53 q+ to talk about clear words and international plain language 14:32:19 Janina; I know COGA is very interested in this and is working on updating the Content Usable document on clear words and plain language. There are significant issues as we move into different languages. 14:32:38 "SC 3.1.3 Unusual Words" was also originally came from a proposal from Japan. 14:32:47 ack jeanne 14:32:47 jeanne, you wanted to say this was intended to be more COGA oriented than speech input oriented 14:32:56 ... but it is important to say what we need to without letting internationalization issues prevent us from providing the guidance that we can 14:33:14 Jeanne: There is a group in the EU that is working on clear language across languages as well 14:33:17 Original user need description for this grouping: both Unusual words, abbreviations or acronyms need to a way for users to understand the meaning of words in their context. Language barriers are also served by this. How literal a word is in context is also an issue for people with cognitive disabilities. 14:33:22 I can never remember the word for words that can be pronounced different: homograph 14:33:23 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homograph 14:33:27 Jeanne: we can tap into that work 14:33:50 s/Janina;/Janina: 14:34:54 Shawn: The overall guideline itself points in the right direction, it trying to say regardless of things are written, it is good to have a way to augment that text with added info to make it more understandable 14:35:11 ... one example is abbr 14:35:31 ... another is a Mac short cut to show pronunciation and definitions for words 14:36:09 Shawn: We have not yet incorporated WCAG 2.2 yet 14:36:45 Jeanne: Can reading level go in with pronunciation? 14:37:04 Shawn: Perhaps, but one is more about augmentation and the other is more about authoring 14:37:22 lol, that was wrong. the word I was looking for is heteronym or heterophone: 14:37:23 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heteronym_(linguistics) 14:37:43 SC 2.5.6 Concurrent Input Mechanisms User need(s): variety of inputs, may switch between inputs at any time. See if there is overlap with pointer cancelation 14:37:45 Shawn: Next is language of page and language of parts which I moved to use HTML correctly 14:37:58 Shawn: Above that is SC 2.5.6 14:38:01 Guideline: Allow users to switch input modalities mid-task. 14:38:29 ... moved what had been a method up to the guideline level 14:39:06 q? 14:39:13 Zakim, take up next item 14:39:13 agendum 2 -- How we might incorporate the User Needs Vs. Functional Needs mapping structure -- taken up [from Lauriat] 14:39:17 ... At this point, I wonder if we have talked through enough examples to pivot to focusing on the structure Jake proposed and see if we can merge the 2 14:39:20 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1POhgI_xHZtSoNbHFp3r5HYIkl6ePaP8DC5d90SZ1tF4/edit#gid=752043294 14:39:33 ^ link to Jake's spreadsheet 14:40:21 Shawn: In column 1, you will find user needs, grouped by core principle, such as "Operable" 14:44:08 ... Let's choose one guideline as an example. "Allow users to switch input modalities mid-task" can go where "Operable" rows intersect with the "Mobility" columns. 14:44:37 q+ 14:45:20 ... The sense I'm getting is that this structure can help us see how well we have covered the intersection of user needs and functional needs 14:45:34 i concur with that observation 14:45:37 q+ 14:45:45 ... more so than a structure that will be part of the final structure of WCAG 3 14:45:45 ack jeanne 14:46:14 ... Jake's structure will be a internal Jeanne 14:46:27 s/Jeanne/tool 14:47:10 Jeanne: I agree. But I'm a little disappointed that this is not a shortcut to outcomes. 14:47:16 ack bruce_bailey 14:47:53 ... it is more of a more thorough way to track user needs 14:48:04 Bruce: What is the core question? 14:48:05 Perhaps check the transcript for the question? 14:48:41 Shawn: The question is do you agree that Jake's spreadsheet is an internal tool to ensure coverage? 14:49:13 Jeanne: In many ways the guidelines are becoming context topics 14:49:34 ... I mean this as a question 14:50:02 In review in Functional Needs group, I proposed the guidelines be renamed as user needs 14:50:03 Shawn: Are there other things that we can use this for. The original intention was to produce outcomes. 14:51:13 Shawn: Does that mean that this would have been Guidelines versus Functional Needs mapping? 14:51:15 q+ to note that this SS definition for essential does not much overlap with WCAG 2.x use of that word 14:51:54 ack bruce_bailey 14:51:57 bruce_bailey, you wanted to note that this SS definition for essential does not much overlap with WCAG 2.x use of that word 14:51:58 Shawn: Most guidelines will span user needs, so User needs won't work well as a top-level structure 14:52:05 I plan to experiment with some slicing and dicing of the structure, via the database I´m developing, and see if it yields insights 14:52:36 Bruce: The definition of essential as, "without physical harm or risk" conflicts with WCAG 2's use of "essential" 14:53:11 Shawn: Agree, and I had been thinking of essential as simply "essential to what the user wishes to do" such as make a purchase 14:54:45 Shawn: From here my thinking it we can continue to go through the Outline Map. Continue to compose short term placeholder guidelines. Then it might make sense to take the spreadsheet and place those placeholder guidelines in the spreasheet to see both coverage and other uses for the spreadsheet 14:55:12 Shawn: Other next steps? What is the best way to plug the placeholders into the editor's draft 14:55:35 Zakim, take up next item 14:55:35 agendum 3 -- CFC for Explainer -- taken up [from Lauriat] 14:55:37 Jeanne: We can design a unique format to make it clear that these are placeholders. I can work with Mike on that 14:55:44 Will work on a dedicated entry mechanism as things mature, and I get tools build 14:56:29 Jeanne: Please check your email and please vote (for or against) on a paragraph of the editor's note, this is the last step before approving publishing the Explainer. 14:56:43 ... be sure that you are replying to both lists when you vote 14:56:55 ... make sure it goes to both AG and Silver lists 14:57:08 Janina: What is the deadline? 14:57:14 13th 14:57:28 https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2021JulSep/0139.html 14:57:34 Wednesday September 15th at 10:00am Boston time.
