stroop effect for color is a problem too
14:35:27 [Fazio]
I continue to flip the wrong gas switch in peru because green minus means gas off and red flame means on
14:35:36 [Fazio]
I interpret green as on red as off

More to neurodivergernce than autism and adhd
14:40:06 [Nehaj]
matatk: default should be both colour and shape and option should be there to switch between the two

matatk: several issues from rqtf
14:50:00 [janina]
subtopic: Request for meeting from WebRTC
14:51:17 [matatk]
https://www.w3.org/TR/raur/
14:54:24 [Roy]
A recurring topic at the intersection of WebRTC and accessibility has been the integration of real-time text (RTT) in WebRTC-based services. See for instance:
14:54:24 [Roy]
https://www.w3.org/2019/09/20-apa-minutes.html#item02
14:54:24 [Roy]
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Team/w3t-wai/2020Sep/0030.html
14:54:24 [Roy]
When the initial WebRTC API Recommendation was released, the protocol work in IETF was still in progress, leading to some relatively open-ended language in the spec:
14:54:25 [Roy]
https://www.w3.org/TR/2021/REC-webrtc-20210126/#accessibility-considerations
14:54:26 [Roy]
We have been recently notified by the author of the relevant IETF RFC that that work has now concluded:
14:54:28 [Roy]
https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc/issues/2931
14:54:30 [Roy]
Unfortunately, based on the assessment of two of the co-chairs of the WebRTC WG (including Bernard Aboba who is directly involved in the relevant FCC work in the US), the said RFC is not fit for purpose, nor implementable.
14:54:33 [Roy]
To compound that situation, according to Bernard, that unsatisfactory solution is going to become part of the EU regulation on the matter, via:
14:54:38 [Roy]
https://portal.etsi.org/STF/STFs/STF-Homepages/STF605
14:54:40 [Roy]
https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/301500_301599/301549/03.02.01_60/en_301549v030201p.pdf#page=30
14:54:42 [Roy]
The author of the RFC is himself a member of the said ETSI group; I noticed that James Craig is there as well.
14:54:44 [Roy]
I think it would be a great service to the community if we could find a path to figure out if indeed the RFC can't be made to work as is, and if so, how we can get the combination of the WebRTC API, the ETSI document and the EU regulation to align to a better situation.
14:54:48 [Roy]
One possibility might be to work towards a joint meeting (with the end goal of a joint resolution?) of WebRTC & APA; but I am open to any other suggestion you may have. It may be useful to start with a Team-internal conversation to discuss our options.
14:59:07 [Nehaj]
