Maryjom: CFC is in progress, so far there has been one objection; all of us get those emails. The objection is about the color-contrast calculations which hasn't change for WCAG, the person doesn't want it perpetuated, but we haven't change that text at all
14:05:00 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: the AG chairs will reply, I have given my input
14:05:34 [FernandaBonnin]

maryjom: Loïc's comment is that the definition already doesn't necessarily say closed to all, so it covers the partially situation and gave an example of a Smart Tv
14:11:34 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: any comment on whether or not partially closed is needed?
14:13:11 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: we agreed that no note is needed

14:24:30 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: this also applies to 1.2.3
14:25:26 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: (goes through the responses in the survey)
14:26:14 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: 5 options for changes
14:26:20 [maryjom]
One of the options available to authors for success criterion 1.2.1 (1.2.3) is that of providing a media alternative that is text—which necessarily relies on a connected assistive technology to be presented.
14:26:30 [maryjom]
Option 1: One of the options available to authors for success criterion 1.2.1 (1.2.3) is that of providing a media alternative that is text—which necessarily relies on a connected assistive technology to be presented.
14:27:05 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: option 1 is the original
14:27:32 [maryjom]
Option 2 – may rely on connected AT One of the options available to authors for success criterion 1.2.1 (1.2.3) is that of providing a media alternative that is text. Presentation of text may rely on a connected assistive technology.
14:27:49 [maryjom]
Option 3 – absence of AT: One of the options available to authors for success criterion 1.2.1 (1.2.3) is providing a media alternative that is text which, in the absence of assistive technology, would need to be available in different modalities.
14:28:19 [maryjom]
Option 4 – AT in closed system: One of the options available to authors for success criterion 1.2.1 (1.2.3) is that of providing a media alternative that is text—which assistive technology in the closed system can present in different modalities.
14:28:41 [maryjom]
Option 5 – accessibility features of closed system: One of the options available to authors for success criterion 1.2.1 (1.2.3) is that of providing a media alternative that is text—which can then be presented to the users through the accessibility features of the closed system.

Q+
14:29:57 [FernandaBonnin]
mitch11: all say different true things, my expectation would be that since we are in the problematic section, we are saying why this S.C. is problematic, which 2 or 3 (with tweaks) do cover
14:30:21 [FernandaBonnin]
mitch11: closed systems lack connected assistive technology

ack PhilDay
14:32:00 [Sam]
q+
14:32:15 [FernandaBonnin]
PhilDay: if we are stating what we required or recommend, Opt 4 and 5 could be tweaked to talk about the problem or needs on the closed system, rather than assuming that accessibility features are present
14:33:18 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: will erase opt 4 and rename opt 5
14:33:32 [maryjom]
oPoll: Which option do you prefer: 1) Option 1 – Original text, 2) Option 2 – may rely on connected AT, 3) Option 3 – absence of AT, 4) Option 4 – a11y features of closed system, or 5) something else

TOPIC: 1.3.2 Meaningful sequence
14:38:32 [maryjom]
Option 1 – with spelling fixed: 1.3.2 Meaningful Sequence—Requires information in a programmatically determinable form; a correct reading sequence should be output that helps the user correlate information that is provided auditorily or through some other non-visual means with the corresponding information displayed on the screen.
14:38:39 [maryjom]
Option 2 – edited 1.3.2 Meaningful Sequence—Requires information in a programmatically determinable form; a correct reading sequence should be output that helps the user correlate information that is provided by the accessibility features of the closed system in auditory form or through some other non-visual means with the corresponding information displayed on the screen.

14:43:07 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: don't think Recommended is normative. we avoid normative terms like should and must
14:43:38 [FernandaBonnin]
maryjom: we will have to look at the style guide to find out if its normative, we can check on that
14:44:41 [FernandaBonnin]
mitch11: without Should, the recommendation could sound like its optional to have a correct reading section
14:44:53 [FernandaBonnin]
