We would have to look at our program of work. 13:42:11 janina: When we talk about normative standards, we are talking about documents that feature RFC 2119 terminology (MUST, SHOULD, MAY). They may also contain more informative parts too. 13:42:40 janina: The XAUR is not a normative document. APA WG can create such a document (we have before). ARIA started within APA's predecessor WG. 13:43:38 janina: As well as normative standards, we have 'Note' track documents that tend to be about best practice etc. XAUR fits into that group. We would need to talk about whether/when we may be at the right time to make a normative document, and could publish one later. 13:44:07 janina: However, don't want to get in the way of someone working on this. We could happily review, and provide feedback. 13:44:12 ack ja 13:44:12 janina, you wanted to discuss update 13:44:19 ack mi 13:44:43 MichaelC: Notes W3C will accept documents handed over from other orgs; that's expected 13:45:32 MichaelC: Expects MSF outputs could inform multiple pubs from W3C; WCAG, Immersive Web, XAUR, etc 13:46:12 MichaelC: Also multiple ways to organize the work 13:47:19 q+ 13:47:33 jasonjgw: Speculates that input to WCAG3 might be more helpful than an independent guidelines doc 13:47:55 q+ 13:48:00 jasonjgw: So it's a strategic question of what to work on and where 13:48:05 q+ to mention scope of first charter 13:48:16 ack dy 13:48:38 Dylan: long term is indeed WCAG type; esp with regulatory impact 13:49:40 Dylan: Notes that current practice to create web page or PowerPoint with same content is not equivalent; separate but equal isn't equal 13:50:08 MichaelC: Notes MSF has 2-year charter policy 13:50:30 MichaelC: Current proposed charter does not reach proposing guidelines yet 13:50:41 q? 13:50:45 ack mi 13:50:45 MichaelC, you wanted to mention scope of first charter 13:51:19 jasonjgw: Summarizes ... 13:51:42 jasonjgw: Asks about collab work; when? thoughts? 13:51:44 q+ 13:52:19 q+ to mention reports, liaison 13:52:30 Dylan: Would appreciate a rapid feedback cycle; notes deep experience in RQTF in this work 13:53:46 Dylan: Have big organizational questions that would benefit from RQTF experience; regular checkins? 13:53:52 q? 13:54:02 ack dy 13:54:04 ack mi 13:54:04 MichaelC, you wanted to mention reports, liaison 13:54:22 MichaelC: MSF produces 3-month heartbeats 13:54:39 MichaelC: Suggests a regular checkin helpful; clearly also participation in MSF 13:55:08 jasonjgw: So is there an immediate step? 13:55:33 MichaelC: No immediate step; MSF should reach out when we get more org'd 13:55:51 Dylan: Sounds good 13:56:31 that was public-rqtf@w3.org correct? 13:57:27 MSF Accessibility: accessibility@lists.metaverse-standards.org 13:57:37 [discussion of email for continued conversation] 13:59:41 zakim, end meeting 13:59:41 As of this point the attendees have been jasonjgw, janina, m-alkalbani, Scott, matatk, Raja, MichaelC 13:59:43 RRSAgent, please draft minutes 13:59:44 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2024/07/24-rqtf-minutes.html Zakim 13:59:52 I am happy to have been of service, jasonjgw; please remember to excuse RRSAgent.
