Made some progress on it. Laying out, with Jon's help, a systematized presentation of modules we aren't ready to publish which we have to discussi with COGA. The documents we are about to publish, any of those started with COGA. Most importantly, we should clear the 16:14:56 janina: .... for internationalizations. 16:15:20 JF: We're going to have to go back to look at help and support and tools to see if what we're saying is what we want to be saying. 16:15:24 janina: Thanks! 16:16:02 Fazio: Many thanks from COGA. 16:16:19 JF: Please look at the mentioned modules. Any help or coments are appreciated. 16:16:56 agenda? 16:17:14 Fazio: We're working onha document for guidance on how to work with COGA. We continue to work on this document. 16:17:30 Fazio: We have an images subgroup dedicated to finding appropriate images to understand the Content Usable document. 16:17:43 Fazio: We have a lot going on, but not much more to update people on. 16:18:25 PaulG: Pronunconation: We're just sorting out or arrangements here. There is a document coming up ready fofr CFC in a week or so. 16:18:56 zakim, next item 16:18:56 agendum 4 -- FAST Update -- taken up [from janina] 16:19:35 Joshue108: On Friday we had Jake and Todd Levy hetere. We were discussing Jake's proposal on how we coulod work with that within the Functional Needs subgroup. 16:19:54 Joshue108: We have concerns about diversity. I have reached ou tot some peole who migh tfit the bill. 16:20:22 Joshue108: T orelate this to TPAC: we'rewrapping up a presentation of r a session we hope will be really useful to expaling the curren twork we¨'ve been doing. 16:20:38 Lionel_Wolberger has joined #apa 16:20:56 https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-silver/2021Sep/0080.html 16:20:57 s/T orelate/To relate 16:21:07 s/we'rewrapping/we're wrapping 16:21:17 s/r a/ 16:21:33 s/ expaling / explaining 16:21:34 janina: I was very intrigued by the work Sean Loriot has done on Functional Needs on trying to map where we have coverage which will map nicely with WACG3 and where tehre a regaps. 16:21:42 s/twork/work 16:21:57 s/we¨'ve/we've 16:22:16 janina: I found that interesting since we review a lot of specs. It may be interesting to map some of the specs we've reviewed, of both kinds, both where there is an dwhere there isn't, in the hope that we might find some technical solutions or where we may have accessibility considerations. 16:22:21 s/Levy hetere/Libby were there 16:22:28 s/Sean Loriot/Shawn Lauriat 16:22:36 janina: There ar e very interesting intersections for APA work. 16:22:41 s/coulod/could 16:22:52 janina: Josh, Michael, any reactions? 16:23:34 Joshue108: Jake did relate that Sean had made progress iterating like that. There is a list of potential guidelines which Sean has drawn up and shared. It's kind of hitting a few bases and lighting people up. We need to round that off a little within the Functional Needs subgroup because we need to work on the proposal. 16:24:48 janina: We mayb e able to drive technological solutions where. Judy shared with RQTF the work she has seen in action the work from MIT she ahs seen. 16:24:48 present+ 16:25:07 https://groups.csail.mit.edu/infolab/publications/Barbu-Deep-video-to-video-transformations.pdf 16:26:25 janina: This can be implemented in browsers or televisions or almost whatever. To what extent can we push this? Are ther eorthe rtechynologies like this where we might propose technological solutions, for instance tuning audio for people's hearing? Thos e questions are being discussed in RQTF for instance. Also WebXR. 16:26:26 like T-Pain and auto-tune??? 16:26:42 janina: There's colour adjustments for people with sensitivities to colours and so on. 16:27:09 q+ 16:27:10 q? 16:27:50 janina: These conversations are just starting. Even other aspects of what is currently authoring guidelines. An intersection and a place for APA to say: perhaps W3C should recommend and we might need a spec from us or somebody else to pick up something that's being identified through all of this work. 16:29:22 Lionel_Wolberger: I'd like your help, Janina. When we comment on a spec, we point out the places where the community creating that spec may have overlooked something that needs addressing. I don't see in that language where we would say "don't forget that there are technological solutions"' Janina, you said that we can engage technologically. There's a missn 16:29:55 janina: It might be that some group is doing something similar enough to what we want that we can egage them and engage them in the development of that section of that spec. 16:30:09 janina: Or we may propose working on tosmething from the ground up. 16:30:20 janina: We should look for those kinds of opportunities where we can define them. 16:30:48 Lionel_Wolberger: I see hwo it could go into our typical feedback. "Be aware that there is this technology developing". We could also work as matchmakers, and that would not go in our typical workflow. 16:31:07 janina: Our remit is not just to comment on what is or isn't in a spec but also to do "matchmaking". we are perfectly empowered to do that. 16:31:11 JF: We are the tipping point. 16:31:19 janina: "You and them, talk about this and CC us." 16:32:04 janina: We're going to do this kind of matchmaking during TPAC. EPUB has been busy with Schema for 25 years. Silver is dientifying that a schema for video and so forth should have technological definitions. 16:32:33 Q+ 16:32:41 janina: jFro WCA3 to say soemthing sensible about this it would be great to have Schema. Is your media exposing the appropriate thing on the appropriate address? It's a good idea to ahve a Schema. 16:33:27 janina: WCAG3 is probably going to say more than "You should have captions", probably something like "You should implement this schema; if it's a professionally developed video this schema shoudl be used". Adn so on. 16:33:53 ack jf 16:34:17 JF: Right away the quesiton comgin to my mind is: where does that metadata live? It can live inside the media wrapper or on the hosign page, it can be referenced via a scipr and so on. 16:34:35 janina: Who wants to be the host for two bilolion video sworht of metadata? 16:34:43 ack Lionel_Wolberger 16:34:45 ack li 16:34:51 zakim, next item 16:34:51 agendum 5 -- New Charters Review https://github.com/w3c/strategy/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22Horizontal+review+requested%22 -- taken up [from janina] 16:35:21 MichaelC: The We b Payments charter, we didn't make a decision on what to comment on. They are getting ready to move forward. 16:35:40 janina: Do we want to liaise? The relationsihp hasn't been particularly fruitful so far. 16:35:42 https://github.com/w3c/strategy/issues/287 16:36:06 MichaelC: We could request a liaison to push th e point or just let it go. We can still bug them if we see something. 16:36:19 MichaelC: Let it go? 16:36:24 janina: I agree. 16:36:27 Crickets. 16:36:29 zakim, next item 16:36:29 agendum 6 -- A11y Review Comment Tracker https://w3c.github.io/horizontal-issue-tracker/?repo=w3c/a11y-review -- taken up [from janina] 16:37:06 https://github.com/w3c/strategy/issues/287 16:37:40 MichaelC: There's an issue on CSS-Highlight-ATI.

No activity yet. Is this oen we want to track? 16:38:34 janina: I think yes. 16:38:48 MichaelC: Marking that as something we're tracking. 16:39:50 MichaelC: There is a couple new specs. 16:40:13 https://github.com/w3c/a11y-request/issues/16 16:40:15 MichaelC: Inceremental Font Transfer. 16:40:22 janina: We looked at this a couple weeks ago. 16:40:33 MichaelC: Looks like they did a fast review. 16:40:56 MichaelC: They are alterting to us about their fast review. 16:41:37 janina: We don't need to review this. 16:42:17 zakim, next item 16:42:17 agendum 7 -- Epub 3.3 Reviews -- taken up [from See Below] 16:42:38 janina: John, what did you find in what spec? 16:42:53 JF: On the AGWG call yesterday they were starting to look at scoring in teh context of WCAG3. 16:43:02 JF: The discussion turned to the different types of images ou tthere. 16:43:29 JF: In the context of some EPUB books, the people who have been tagging content mark images as decorative if they don't know what to do about them. 16:43:42 JF: I was concerned about the discussion about scoring in terms of different types of alt-tags and so on. 16:43:55 JF: The ofnromance is related to the quality, not just hte presence of alt text. 16:44:33 janina: Yes, that's a potential issue if the spec is not well applied by industries, someone should be doing something about that. What I heard was that you were reading an EPUB specification with wonky alt texts. 16:44:39 JF: No. 16:44:43 janina: Drop that then. 16:44:54 janina: We do have three EPUB specs we want to give a thorough read on. 16:45:46 janina: I need two people each for EPUB 3.3 and EPUB Reading Szstems. 16:45:57 Fredrik: EPUB 3.3 please. 16:46:02 janina: Done! 16:48:05 action: fredrikfischer to review EPUB 3.3 16:48:05 Created ACTION-2310 - Review epub 3.3 [on Fredrik Fischer - due 2021-10-06]. 16:48:09 Not knowing who is chairing or who scribed recently, I propose janina 16:48:22 Not knowing who is chairing or who scribed recently, I propose Lionel_Wolberger 16:50:02 https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/track/actions/2310 16:50:21 https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/track/actions/2309 16:50:59 zakim, next item 16:50:59 agendum 8 -- new on TR http://www.w3.org/TR/tr-status-drafts.html -- taken up [from janina] 16:51:04 -> https://www.w3.org/TR/design-principles/ Web Platform Design Principles/ 16:51:31 MichaelC: Only one new document. I am suspicious of anything that the Technical Architecture Gruoup publishes nowadays. 16:51:39 MichaelC: We might want to review it. 16:51:52 MichaelC: These are notes without a prior draft. 16:52:53 janina: Can we come back to this in November sometime, like around the 17th? 16:53:39 zakim, next item 16:53:39 agendum 9 -- Dangling Spec Review Cleanup: https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/wiki/Category:Spec_Review_Assigned -- taken up [from janina] 16:53:56 zakim, close item 16:53:56 I don't understand 'close item', Fredrik 16:54:03 zakim, next item 16:54:03 agendum 9 was just opened, Fredrik 16:54:10 zakim, close this item 16:54:10 agendum 9 closed 16:54:11 I see 3 items remaining on the agenda; the next one is 16:54:11 10.

There is a potential for teh scanning spec to provide overlays in an AR type situation. I'd like someone to tag team with jem on this. 16:56:18 Joshue108: It could relate to orientation as well. 16:56:34 Joshue108: The reviews are all on teh APA list as well as eht questions I have outlined. Just join in. 16:57:18 s\teh\the 16:57:23 https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa/2021Sep/0033.html 16:57:32 Review and discussion of the WebXR Hit Test Module FPWD 16:58:10 Joshue108: It is on one level kind of low-level since it relates to how the hardware parses aspects of the external environemtn but there is a potential surface here. 16:58:28 janina: It's the classica accessibility connundrum. Privacy yes, but we do like the service of what's around me. 16:59:54 Fazio: I wonder how that applies to people with disabilities. Specifically. 17:00:18 janina: That's exactly the question we need to asnwer. We know that there is a value of service. But if privacy is protectedk, is there an accessibility aspect here? 17:00:54 Joshue108: If you ahve some kind of node in the external environment which trigger disability access. 17:01:48 Joshue108: Say there si something like this here whereby some kind of input perhaps enabled by the Hit Test Module triggers an interface that persons will have overlaid over their environemt. I come to this from a perspective of harm. 17:01:59 janina: We couled easily continue this conversation. and we are past the hour. 17:02:31 zakim, make minutes 17:02:31 I don't understand 'make minutes', Fredrik 17:02:47 rrsagent, draft minutes 17:02:49 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2021/09/29-apa-minutes.html Joshue108
