Recent Site Updates

<Matt_King> Project showing recently deployed changes:

<Matt_King> https://github.com/w3c/wai-aria-practices/projects/2

<Matt_King> https://github.com/w3c/wai-aria-practices/issues/114

Matt_King: Example disclosure was not visually apparent.

<Matt_King> https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/example-index/alert/alert.html

<Matt_King> Details copy is now: The code in this example is not intended for production environments. Before using it for any purpose, read this to understand why.

Matt_King: changed copy and layout to make it more evident.

Matt_King: I think this was one of the most important changes we deployed.

https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/2387

Matt_King: will move forward with a solution on Issue 2387

Matt_King: would like a representative from the TF that would assist on the landmarks

Matt_King: redirects are in place.

Matt_King: not sure how we will redirect on the editors draft.

jamesn: where are new issues meant to be filed on the site?

Matt_King: by default to aria-practices and then if specific to the website gets moved to wai-aria-practices

Issue 2386

<Matt_King> github: https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/2386

Matt_King: Aaron wants just an example on a page. I think this would also be useful for ARIA-AT

jamesn: why can't it just be the example

Matt_King: I think it would be useful to have a heading and a link. If you just send the url how do you know what it is and where it comes from.

Matt_King: we would have to get permission from Shawn that would not have a header or a footer or W3C logo

jamesn: ask the question if anything else on the page is acceptable

Matt_King: i guess if we could generate these as a site build that would work out.

Issue 2385

<Matt_King> github: https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/2385

jamesn: sounds like a valid bug

Matt_King: I do not know how those heading levels are being set

Matt_King: we will have to look into it

jamesn: I am wondering if these are respec

Matt_King: these won't be respec for long

Issue 2384

<Matt_King> github: https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/2384

jamesn: the contrast ratio is with the links

Matt_King: current design of these pages does not match the current site design

jamesn: why don't we just get rid of the gray background on these pages and be done with it

Matt_King: if that is a simple fix then don't see why not.

jamesn: yes, coming as css. removing it would work. Do you want a PR?

Matt_King: yes, please

jamesn: ok, I will get that done.

Issue 2357

<Matt_King> github: https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/2357

Matt_King: I think we could add a date picker pattern

Matt_King: I am not sure if we have an issue open for search

Matt_King: Potential solution 1. Search 2. Date Picker Pattern page 3. Including note on patterns page for any pattern that includes a date picker pattern example.
