Julie: This deck is teeing up the challenge.
15:07:00 [lisa_]
Q+
15:07:04 [kirkwood]
kirkwood has joined #COGA
15:07:36 [JohnRochford]
John loves all those options. Clever.
15:08:24 [JohnRochford]
John Foliot is the original author of the options.
15:08:35 [kirkwood]
present+
15:09:43 [JohnRochford]
q?
15:10:20 [julierawe]
Correction: John Foliot is not the author of the options. He provided a link to the most-spoken languages in the world.
15:10:35 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: Languages that are structurally different may be good.
15:11:24 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: I presented to Internationalization group at TPAC.
15:11:47 [kirkwood]
FYI: an example of US City https://www.schools.nyc.gov/about-us/policies/language-access-policy
15:11:48 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: Richard said we should be sure we have representation.
15:12:41 [julierawe]
What is Richard's last name?
15:12:49 [kirkwood]
q+
15:13:34 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: Arabic, Chinese, English are good ones.
15:14:15 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: Perhaps Russian and French would be good.
15:15:20 [JohnRochford]
Kirkwood: Urdu was required by NYC Department of Education plus 8 other languages.
15:16:15 [JohnRochford]
Julie: The smallest possible set of languages is what we should aim for.
15:16:29 [JohnRochford]
Julie: That many conditional tests are a lot.
15:16:37 [lisa_]

15:16:46 [lisa_]
ack k
15:17:16 [kirkwood]
fully agree.
15:17:33 [kirkwood]
lost irc earlier could put slide deck link in again, sorry.
15:17:45 [JohnRochford]
Julie: 4 of Option 4 are included in Option D.
15:18:17 [JohnRochford]
Julie: Sean Thompson says French is required in Canada.
15:18:53 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: We should say 5 if that is what the group decides is our capacity.
15:19:11 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: I don't think we should be limited to only these sets of options.
15:19:51 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: Richard says we should do structurally different languages.
15:20:17 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: I don't agree with any of the sets of options.
15:21:01 [JohnRochford]
Arabic, English, Mandarin, Russian + 1 other should be the set we use.
15:21:45 [kirkwood]
q-
15:21:48 [katy]
I think Arabic, Mandarin, English, Spanish, Russian
15:22:11 [JohnRochford]
+1 to Katy
15:22:18 [katy]
Yes, agree to wiki
15:22:34 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: We should Wiki.
15:22:53 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: With info on other languages.

Julie: Fine by me to pursue Richard's suggestion.
15:25:33 [kirkwood]
just as FYI NYC “Covered Languages” are “Arabic, Bengali, Chinese, English French, Haitian Creole, Korean, Russian, Spanish and Urdu”
15:25:47 [JohnRochford]
Julie: We need an incredible, authorative source for a fifth language.
15:26:26 [lisa_]
Q+
15:26:29 [julierawe]
Scribing for John: John R: how about asking the Internationalization group to recruit the people we need for this?
15:26:41 [julierawe]
John R: They have the contacts to do this, don't they?
15:27:08 [JohnRochford]
John R: How about asking the Internationalization Group to bring us the help we need to languages?
15:27:20 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: We tried that 2 years ago.
15:27:39 [kirkwood]
+1 to Lisa, my feeling too

15:28:13 [julierawe]
John R: This is going to take years. I am pessimistic
15:28:18 [JohnRochford]
John: I think this will take us years, and I am pessimistic we will be successful.

15:33:38 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: Is reiterating what she said previously.
15:34:03 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: Priority 1 would be most spoken.
15:34:52 [JohnRochford]
John R: Lisa, why most spoken and not most online?
15:34:59 [katy]
I think saying most online would help more people sooner, but it would perpetuate digital barriers perhaps?
15:35:03 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: We could have what's most online.
15:36:45 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: We need languages from different families.
15:38:22 [JohnRochford]
Katy: We could express succinctly.
15:39:02 [JohnRochford]
Kirkwood: Are we thinking about non ASCII characters?
15:39:35 [JohnRochford]
Kirkwood: There are a lot of languages, such as Urdu, that don't have ASCII characters.
15:40:52 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: When we get to the Wiki, we will have to address symbolic languages, non ASCII.
15:41:05 [julierawe]

15:42:38 [JohnRochford]
Julie: I find compelling the resource (link) Lisa shared.
15:43:10 [JohnRochford]
That link was Katy's. Thanks, Katy!
15:44:10 [julierawe]
q+
15:44:24 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: The languages we choose could accentuate the digital divide.
15:44:29 [katy]
Yes +1 to Lisa's comment about the the digital divide.
15:44:50 [JohnRochford]
+1 to Lisa's comment and the similar one Katy made earlier.
15:46:19 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: We need a proposal to how we get to a set of languages we can stand behind.
15:47:24 [lisa_]
jump over similar languas that already included. the 6 official United Nations languages then most spoken
15:47:47 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: I think the languages should be Arabic, Mandarin, English, Russian, and Hindi.
15:47:49 [katy]
+1 to Lisa. Similar to the idea of most spoken languages that are not in the same family, plus Russian as widely used online
15:48:35 [JohnRochford]
Lisa: We should verify they are all structurally different / from different families.
15:49:19 [katy]
+1 to Lisa's suggestion
15:49:38 [JohnRochford]
+1 to Lisa's suggestion, what the hell.

Agenda item #3: WCAG 3
15:53:37 [julierawe]
q+
15:55:08 [julierawe]
Lisa wants 2 COGA members to look at each set of outcomes
15:57:27 [julierawe]
Lisa: Check outcomes is the most important thing
15:57:46 [julierawe]

15:59:29 [julierawe]
