CfC is out at the moment, and looks like it'll go through. 18:11:31 janina: We have cleared the i18n issue that we had, and expect to be ready for CR this month. 18:12:34 Judy: Accessibility of Remote Meetings; WCAG Techniques and Understanding and ARIA APG redesign are planned for this month (some on the 19th, GAAD). 18:13:16 janina: A moratorium cropped up with little notice for the 13th to 23rd. 18:13:54 Judy: [will ask for more background on this] 18:14:53 janina: It should not impact APA. 18:15:10 MichaelC: It may impact the ARIA APG. We may need to roll some things out before the moratorium. 18:15:36 zakim, next item 18:15:36 agendum 3 -- Checking: New work under development? Status on cross-WAI review requests? -- taken up [from Judy] 18:16:14 janina: RQTF is taking up an Accessibility User Requirements (AUR) doc about collaborative editing environments. 18:16:23 janina: There seems to be a fair amount of research literature. 18:17:06 tzviya: very excited to hear this 18:17:09 Matthew_Atkinson: +1 18:17:20 Judy: Suggest you emphasize you're talking about web-based collaborative documents. 18:17:29 janina: +1 18:18:01 q+ 18:18:25 Judy: I raised a contrast issue with a collaborative document provider; it was fixed within two months. They realized they weren't applying WCAG to content. Suggest you emphasize the importance of this. 18:19:05 jamesn: We've done some work on this in ARIA (annotations; comments). There is interest around this. 18:19:25 q- 18:19:25 ack tzviya 18:21:49 Matthew_Atkinson: Maturity Model has moved to being a sub-group of RQTF (under APA). It's a separate meeting. Janina has been helping getting it set up and with the discussion. 18:22:22 Judy: We've learned a lot about discoverability and transparancy of sub-groups (e.g. from AGWG); want to make sure we benefit from these learnings. 18:22:30 janina: ACK; we have been and are following up in APA 18:23:12 janina: Functional Needs has moved to APA too and we are looking forward to supporting FPWD. 18:24:08 Judy: Is APA trying to broaden the community there? 18:24:28 janina: yes; we intend to continue to collaborate in cross-group communications (especially with WCAG 3; best practices; ...) 18:24:59 tzviya: Is Functional Needs going to be part of WCAG 3? 18:25:17 q+ to mention wcag2ict, agwg chartering update, and fast GH version 18:25:22 janina: Returned to APA as a separate thing, as part of FAST (APA). 18:25:51 MichaelC: Overlap of interest was identified; is currently part of FAST. May be split out in future, but still would be expected to be an APA publication. 18:26:26 jamesn: Is there anything in a document that helps me tell if it's on the Note track or the REC track? 18:27:14 Judy: There is some ambiguity; would be good to have something clearer. 18:27:46 MichaelC: There is standard wording that goes in the status, that is required for publication to be successful. I think there may be work going on to make this clearer. 18:27:55 Judy: Will talk with PLH to see what we can do. 18:28:04 janina: Could be something in ReSpec.js? 18:28:18 Ryladog has joined #waicc 18:28:26 MichaelC: There is a configuration option for _not_ being on the REC track. 18:28:34 Present+ Katie_Haritos-Shea 18:29:01 https://github.com/w3c/clearspec/issues/5 18:29:20 MichaelC: In some status text it will say that the W3C doesn't plan to advance X to a recommendation. (Though this is hard to find.) 18:29:27 This was supposed to be addressed by ClearSpec 18:31:31 Judy: After WCAG 2, industry/government parties requested guidance on how to map W3C (non-normatively) to other non-web ICT environments. This has come up again recently; AGWG will be reviewing the work statement on this soon. 18:32:03 Judy: Scope in terms of technologies will likely come up. E.g. Would web technologies on hardware be in scope? 18:32:21 Judy: There will be some notice to WAICC on this; perhaps RQTF would be interested. 18:33:09 Judy: There's a GitHub version of the FAST checklist; have you seen it? 18:33:17 MichaelC: Yes, though out of scope until after the checklist restructure. 18:33:46 Judy: AGWG is exploring something new with charters... 18:34:59 Rachael: Lots of momentum behind a couple of things in AGWG: WCAG 3 [looking at standards in a different way to cover more disabilities and technologies]; also interest in a version of WCAG 2 that addresses outstanding issues; de-duplicates some of the language that overlaps. 18:35:34 Rachael: We have had a rule that normative text can't be changed; hence some additional SCs to add things (e.g. Reflow). So there is interest in cleaning this up. 18:36:10 Rachael: This is more work than one group could do. Looking at how to support an existing spec that's tied into law, and the new, transformative work going into WCAG 3. Hard to switch between the two. 18:36:45 Rachael: We are _tentatively_ exploring the concept of what it would look like if we broke into two groups: WCAG 2 "clean" and WCAG 3 innovative transformative work. Very early discussion stages. 18:37:02 Rachael: Working on two draft hypothetical charters for potential groups. 18:37:20 q+ 18:37:27 ack ju 18:37:27 Judy, you wanted to mention wcag2ict, agwg chartering update, and fast GH version 18:37:31 ack ry 18:37:55 q+ 18:38:34 ack ra 18:38:38 Ryladog: Splitting the group would seem like a mistake—breaking up the community and discussion. 18:39:14 https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/one_or_two_groups/?login 18:39:15 Rachael: Only discussion options so far. We have a survey open (until Monday midnight). Encouraging responses well before. 18:39:50 jamesn: Agree splitting the group would be a mistake. Chairs would be dealing with two groups; many orgs may not have enough people to go to both. 18:39:54 Just a note that proposed the chairs split and a new chair would be added. 18:40:02 q+ 18:40:51 Judy: This possibility is triggering some interesting discussions amongst W3C leadership. 18:40:58 q+ 18:41:01 ack tz 18:41:30 tzviya: Caveat that I'm not in the community, but a big fan of WCAG: the fracture that exists will be there in the community and formally splitting things makes it easier for the chairs to manage. 18:42:06 Rachael: Appreciate the ACK and +1 that the biggst recognized risk is potential loss of talent. Discussion on this is very important. 18:42:26 zakim, next item 18:42:26 I see a speaker queue remaining and respectfully decline to close this agendum, Matthew_Atkinson 18:42:29 q? 18:42:31 ack Rachael 18:42:33 zakim, next item 18:42:33 agendum 4 -- Shawn's request about What WAI is working on: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-wai-cc/2022Apr/0008.html -- taken up [from Judy] 18:42:34 ack ra 18:43:35 Judy: This is a dynamic document. Shawn sent a request on the WAICC mailing list. Remember GAAD is coming up (May 19th). We are pretty-much prepared in terms of what WAI will be promoting. There will be more people than usual looking at the list of what we're working on. 18:43:53 Judy: Please look at this monthly and see if some of what you're working on should be showing up there. 18:44:06 q+ 18:45:02 Ryladog: Good work! 18:45:11 agenda? 18:45:11 ack Ryladog 18:45:22 zakim, next item 18:45:22 agendum 5 -- Matthew's request about motor disability input: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-wai-cc/2022Apr/0006.html -- taken up [from Judy] 18:45:46 scribe: Judy 18:46:01 jb: did you get any response on this? 18:46:27 matthew: we were looking at motor dexterity issues, for XR hand-input module 18:46:50 ...someone did contact me offlist to suggest someone but outside w3c 18:47:10 ...prefer someone in w3c... 18:48:36 jb: I can comment from ataxia perspective if you want 18:48:46 scribe: Matthew_Atkinson 18:49:15 Judy: We have strong direct participation from people with some disabilities, and relatively weak on others—maybe a general topic for a future coordination call. 18:49:39 q+ 18:49:45 Judy: Am I guessing right that most of our groups don't have sufficient representation from people with motor disabilities? 18:50:28 q+ 18:50:32 Ryladog: This is definitely an issue. 18:51:05 tzviya: Agree that there isn't enough representation from some communities, and we should have a discussion on it. 18:51:18 tzviya: Suggest reaching out to the WebXR community group on this specfic issue. 18:51:47 ack ry 18:51:50 ack tz 18:51:51 Judy: I know people who are facing big barriers in this area with access to XR. 18:52:19 agenda? 18:53:03 zakim, take up item 9 18:53:03 agendum 9 -- ASL interpreters -- taken up [from Judy] 18:53:11 https://www.lflegal.com/2022/04/vr-caption-lawsuit/ 18:53:21 https://beta.ada.gov/web-guidance/ 18:54:20 Judy: The service we've been using has seen a surge in demand. Do any groups have current ASL interpreting needs? 18:54:38 zakim, take up item 7 18:54:38 agendum 7 -- FYI on W3C's plans on JTC 1 PAS and WCAG 2.2 -- taken up [from Judy] 18:55:37 Judy: W3C sent WCAG 2 to ISO for endorsement under the JTC 1 PAS process. Took a break for WCAG 2.1; preparing to forward WCAG 2.2 (this takes some time). 18:55:59 Judy: Questions/concerns/comments? Please let me know. 18:56:16 Ryladog: This is good. 18:56:51 zakim, take up item 8 18:56:51 agendum 8 -- WAI-wide glossary (from Janina) -- taken up [from Judy] 18:57:14 q+ 18:57:29 janina: Need a reminder, progress check and we need to think about how to make it usable, and synchronize our definitions—or at least highlight when they're different by having those different definitions side-by-side, so the reasons can be understood. 18:58:01 janina: Need to think about how to do it, the value of consistency, and how to indicate when we're almost consistent. 18:58:37 ack ja 18:58:40 jamesn: This is a great idea, but owenrship of the definitions should be with the group that's most qualified to look after them. An entirely centralized document would be a very bad idea (from experience with ARIA). Also need to note whether definitions are normative or not. 18:59:17 s/group that/spec that/ 18:59:25 MichaelC: The thing that held us up before is that there are 100 pages of terms; need to narrow those down. 18:59:59 Judy: Need another conversation on this? 19:00:03 MichaelC: Yes; any time. 19:00:24 jamesn: When we're looking through the existing definitions, we should look at things that were defined but didn't need to be. 19:00:38 zakim, take up item 6 19:00:38 agendum 6 -- Updates & q&a on legal entity transition -- taken up [from Judy] 19:01:17 Judy: I'm encouraged with the progress I've seen. People wanted to be able to raise questions here regularly. We have seen a lot of progress on agreements recently. If you have questions, please contact me. 19:01:26 Judy: We could try for more time on this call next. 19:01:36 Judy: Anyone feeling particular need to discuss it? 19:01:56 I would like to talk about it 19:02:44 rrsagent, make minutes 19:02:44 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2022/05/04-waicc-minutes.html Matthew_Atkinson 20:27:43 Joshue108_ has joined #waicc
