<SteveNoble> https://github.com/w3c/apa/issues/237

SN: I'm setting aside some time to read that study and figure out what to say in the draft

SN: These last three require some work 248, 247, 237 - the rest can be closed

JOC: I'll take care of that

jasonjgw: Seems that we have covered SAUR issues.

Accessibility of remote Meetings.

scott_h: A number of open issues on remote meetings

scott_h: Issue #261 - automated captions

scott_h: Commenter mentioned issues with caption accuracy

scott_h: Suggesting that we mention ASR is better than one at all, but understanding that human captions are better

scott_h: correction "...better than none at all"

scott_h: Issue #260 screen sharing

scott_h: Discussion around how API impacts screen sharing

scott_h: A lot depends upon the content actually being shared

scott_h: Some 3rd party plugins may help

jasonjgw: Most times this is just shared as a video screen; the general recommendation has been to share files separately

jasonjgw: Not sure if there is an interest in tool developers to solve any of these issues in the underlying technologies

scott_h: Since these 3rd party tools are not well developed, we may just want to close this issue

scott_h: We mention making resources available to all participants in an accessible version before a meeting as the goal

janina: Point that having to depend upon a screen reader output during a meeting is a hindrance to participation

janina: COGA is reviewing lots of documents

janina: They are currently using Google docs to capture their comments (not GitHub)

janina: Will pass on links to these docs when they are available to us

janina: Will look at a future meeting date for a joint call

jasonjgw: We will need to time to digest their comments; so probably will have to wait to January for a joint call

jasonjgw: Our next call is Dec 15; last for the year
