TPAC (12-16 September) Planning
Matthew_Atkinson: this will be a hybrid event physically in Vancouver, BC
Matthew_Atkinson: reminder to our task forces to think about this and help plan for event capacity

Accessibility Maturity Model https://w3c.github.io/wcag-maturity-model/index.html
Matthew_Atkinson: there are several of these. This is an effort to create a standardized one.
Matthew_Atkinson: this work is very new. It was being worked on in AGWG but will be moved. Do we think APA is a good home for this?
janina: I'll just add that with APA's mandate to look across all specs in W3C we have a wider perspective to apply to this work.
janina: it could become a one-stop shop for organizations and institutions to address accessibility including scenarios of mergers and acquisitions.
I've reviewed some of these outside documents you mentioned. I second the idea to bring this work forward from W3C and add it to this group's concerns.
janina: it's a long-term project and we're not sure how we'll organize it but we'll take this to a CfC which we can start next week.
Task Force Actions & Deliverables Updates
Matthew_Atkinson: from personalization, I'm still working on the rendering outputs for the extension. I don't think it's going to be a blocker, it's just taking a bit longer. When done, we'll send it to the chairs.
Matthew_Atkinson: we've also had some interest for recommendations from our proposed markup.
Pronunciation
irfan: I spoke to Mark yesterday. We are creating the response for ARIA WG based on our conversations. Hopefully by our meeting next week, we'll have this ready.
irfan: I'm also working on some examples. Thanks to Matthew for your help. If you have any additional language examples, I'll get them incorporated.
Matthew_Atkinson: I have friends who are accessibility consultants and copy editors who can provide good examples.
janina: we're taking the ARIA WG feedback very seriously. We're analyzing our approach and looking for the best way forward.
RQTF
janina: we're bringing the SAUR to the table for APA approval.
janina: we don't know if we're going to joint-publish with timed text. The editing work is nearly done. It will come to a CfC relatively soon as an updated working draft.
janina: the natural language interfaces document with work from Mitre, a long-time partner.
COGA
sub
janina: we're advancing their work statement. There will be a meeting tomorrow with more info coming.
FAST Update
Joshue108: we talked about errors and error recovery and we've also made some progress on personalization
Joshue108: we'll only have one meeting next week so it may not be on the agenda in APA next week

Actions Checkin (Specs) https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/track/actions/open

janina: it reads as normative but it's marked as informative. I think we need agreement on the document's recommendation level and the language used.
janina: I'm passing it back to you, Roy
Roy: I can talk to the group and confirm with them tomorrow and give you an update next week
Dangling Spec Review Cleanup: https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/wiki/Category:Spec_Review_Assigned
