Github Issue #136 Scoring for Inactive Stage

<CharlesL> https://github.com/w3c/maturity-model/issues/136

Workstatement

<Sheri_B-H> Janina said APA wants a deeper why in the taskforce workstatement

<Sheri_B-H> why aren't we pointing people to ISO

<Sheri_B-H> for example

Lionel_Wolberger: It's what's different here that matters; not the usual w3C output

Sheri_B-H: One reason is that it's free of cost

Sheri_B-H: ISO ain't cheap

Sheri_B-H: Some come from orgs that then sell services

Sheri_B-H: It's also about keeping things a11y, not just getting them there and done

jeff: Also about referencing W3C specs in a W3C best practices

Lionel_Wolberger: not a general mm, it's specifically about implementation of web standards; anything that touches web directly or indirectly

Sheri_B-H: informs the path of web development as a participating best practices; even if no specs on a11y yet; e.g. blockchain

Sheri_B-H: mm is more about behavioral patterns

jeff: more about process?

<Sheri_B-H> W3 doesn't endorse other organization's standards

<Sheri_B-H> WCAG is about components, the maturity model is about behavioral patterns

<Sheri_B-H> maturity model anticipates questions that come up in the field, and provides guidance around how to produce them consistently and reliably

<CharlesL> Maturity Model aligns with W3C web accessibility guidelines

<Sheri_B-H> Janina: change produce to respond

<Sheri_B-H> The final webforms can be used to produce reports

<Sheri_B-H> even standardized reports

<Sheri_B-H> Our maturity model is established to be extensible, others are not

<Sheri_B-H> might put that closer to the top, it's pretty powerful

lionel note audiences for the mm; orgs, customers, regulators,

<Sheri_B-H> single dimension can be assessed you don't have to do the whole thing

https://github.com/w3c/maturity-model/issues/136

Sheri_B-H: maybe copy/paste problem ...

Sheri_B-H: taking it on

Sheri_B-H: Is it that should say "no activity" or "complete"?

jeff: concern to show progression?

jeff: just date the file, or dimension

Sheri_B-H: concerned about getting crowded

jeff: just for the tab

<Sheri_B-H> Put in instructions "put the date in the name of the tab for versioning"

sh: inactive / no longer inactive ?

CharlesL: yes

jeff: agrees to work issue 87

<Sheri_B-H> Need to have full on group discussion re: 89, preferably with Jake present. This ticket will require everyone to participate
