Priority issues

Kathy: talks to 1810 , and NVDA and tree item. Also talks to Daniel and screen reader aspect

Talks to incorrect structure and causing confusion , I think it is related to 1.3.1 info and relationships.

Kathy: Tom, we were mentioning comment on aria owns ...

Tom: talks to group does not require menuitem. And it is not clearly defined.

Kathy: if information isn't provided in menu that should, it could be a 1.3.1 mapping

Wilco: Are we all onboard with this being a failure so this issue is moot?

Kathy: I think the information that the AT provides is the same with or without the links.

Wilco: We may update the examples, is that a blocking issue?

Kathy: I don't think so.

Wilco: Resolution can be adding more real world examples vs. abstract

<Wilco> draft RESOLUTION: Keep failed example 7 as a failure of 1.3.1, leave the issue open to improve the example

Kathy: I will write up note that we have come to resolution.

Secondary accessibility requirements

Kathy: talks act-rules-format.md for mapping secondary accessibility requirements updates
... Trevor did add a comment to Wilco's about explaining scenarios ...opens it up to Trevor

Trevor: first comment was on how do we word this , regarding what is allowable in regard to secondary mappings.

second comment , is there anything that we should be saying for rules that are only secondary mappings, i.e. mapping to aria on role attribute...does that do anything to this structure ? If both are secondary, they may not be followed per se.

Wilco: We need to have that scenario , what came to mind for me is the keyboard trap rule , standard and non standard , both have the SC secondary and composing rule would have as primary

the atomic rules that are using composite rule would have secondary requirements....

Kathy: under mapping for atomic rules...rewriting conformance requirements and then relating to that would be composite rules.

It may be that I need to add in secondary rules from atomic rules can be considered accessibility requirements

Trevor: We could have two atomic rules, 1.3.1 , as a secondary, but then in composite rule, then this would be were it has to map. Talks to elevation status.

Kathy: Talks to composite keyboard trap rule, SC is conformance requirement, then atomic rules , we talk to keyboard standard nav , listing SC as secondary ...in other keyboard trap non standard, we list as secondary.

Secondary may not be the word to use in this example terminology wise.

Kathy talks to Trevor's comment on formalizing reasoning behind secondary requirement scenarios

Trevor: I think we talk to this in the background. Wilco and Kathy are in agreement.

Wilco: Explaining why something is secondary is important

Kathy: We discussed this last week, any questions let me know.

Wilco: This impacts the implementation mappings. Axe core and Trusted Tester and rules format. At what point are moving this forward? Editors draft?

Trevor: I would be in favor to testing this out , marking as editors as it may be temporary solution
... Do we have to go to AG ?

Wilco: No, we can update in editor's draft.

Trevor: Ok.

Kathy: I'd like to agree to a term.

Helen: Additional may be a term

Kathy: talks to PR suggested terms.
... How about related?

Wilco: I lean toward situational

Kathy: Trevor talked to update the situations without updating requirements

Trevor: I was thinking about a living document and how we can do this.

Wilco: I think as we explore, we will find the cases.

https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/quickref/?currentsidebar=%23col_overview&levels=aaa

On how they reference situations.

Wilco: We will revisit next week.

Text content that changes automatically can be paused, stopped or hidden (efbfc7)

Kathy: We talked up to Q3 on this survey

Wilco: I want to get a sense from group, my impression is auto-updating content, it almost 50 percent essential...

Helen: One it can be essential, one can annoyance , i.e. notifications of a chat

essential and programmatically aspect

Wilco: the rule is hoping that nothing is essential, don't think you can presume that

Helen: Does the image alt make sense ? It is a manual review and hard to document sometimes. Same type of scenario.

Kathy: talks to the image of text updates and what is essential and what is not

Wilco: References essential terminology

fundamentally change the information phrasing is ambiguous ... might need to solve that meaning.

Wilco: something needs to be done on expectations , perhaps better meaning of essential
... Do people agree?

Kathy: I agree.

If we figure out here, we can use same format moving forward on essential

Wilco: Talks to example and color change and stopping. Doesn't necessarily fail the criteria

Kathy: I'd be happy with changing example.
... maybe changing color is the distraction issue.
