Meeting minutes

<dmontalvo> - resolves aria-common #109 / aria#2288 remove/replace aria-wg-active.md and aria-wg-participants.md

<dmontalvo> - [dependent] automation and synonyms (via aria #2073)

Am I in the wrong zoom?

dmontalvo: are we ok with re-using the zoom?

jamesn: sounds ok.

pkra: +1

dmontalvo: I'll update the future invites. And set up the other week.

[new-ish] aria#2338 - PR on wiki archiving

pkra: this dropped off the radar.

w3c/aria#2338
… could someone take a look at that?
… some items are unchecked. Feedback would be good.

jamesn: will take a look

spectranaut_: I like to keep the old TPAC and F2F planning docs in the wiki .

pkra: sounds good.

jamesn: yes, let's move those out of the PR.

pkra: will do.
… and ping you.

[ready?] aria #2312 / #2318 / PR #2321: PR naming/labelling convention

w3c/aria#2312

pkra: can we close this?

dmontalvo: I tested this on my fork. It worked well, incl. changing labels when editing PRs.

jamesn: let's close.

aria #2238 / PR #2288: Fix commit log for specs with monorepo

jamesn: right. Still mostly there. Except for aria because it doesn't have its own folder. I'll need to look into path resolution.
… but otherwise it pulls things out correctly.

[rahim] aria #2287: Add ReSpec aliasing clarity in README.me's "Editorial Documentation" section

pkra: rahim sent regrets. Moving on.

[peter] aria #2231: turn on automatic prettier formatting for ARIA spec

spectranaut_: about new meeting time. Scott had sent potential alternatives.
… would those work for others?

dmontalvo: Wed would work

jamesn: same.

pkra: +1

jamesn: let's propose Wed, 12pm Eastern.

spectranaut_: I'll write an email.

pkra: can we close w3c/aria#2070

Should we discuss w3c/core-aam#238 here?
… or next time?

jamesn: I'm leaning towards having something in aria proper.
… one audience is web authors so they can test that it works for them.
… AAM's are a bit removed from authors.

spectranaut_: makes sense.

pkra: we could pull things in from AAMs?

spectranaut_: but it's about AT features.

pkra: oh, right.

spectranaut_: seems fine in ARIA spec.
… problem is expressing support more granularly.
… e.g. role=button. there are several in AAMs (pressed etc). so in the section it'd be complicated.

pkra: it seems like authors really want something like caniuse or mdn. I don't see how ARIA can solve that.

jamesn: authors really need something to track what is fully working.
… comes down to notes we've discussed, e.g., for support of WIP.

pkra: there's a recent comment from aaron.
… suggesting a deep dive.

spectranaut_: let's revisit at next meeting.
