Next meeting would be on the 28th 19:08:36 Topic: Publication planning 19:08:51 Matt: We did complete publication in December, thank you for people who reviewed 19:09:12 ... We got three changes, we didn't get to the high contrast practice 19:09:24 ... I created a milestone for February, we have to set a date 19:09:43 ... I want to make sure we get comfortable enough for the contrast guidance 19:10:01 ... I am proposing the 25, last Tuesday 19:10:16 Daniel: Good from our perspective 19:10:42 John: There is asynch issue, I made some updates to dark light and I don't see they aree updated in the preview 19:11:16 ... I'll be around the rest of the meetings this month 19:12:14 Matt: I am going to adjust the milestone to the 25. Right now there are two things: for some we will be adding some stuff 19:12:31 ... There are WIP things, so we'll end up with four or five 19:12:47 Topic: PR 3194 - Grid and table properties practice editorial fix 19:13:15 Matt: This needs a reviewer. A first time contributor submitted it, seems legit 19:13:51 ... In the grid and tables property example there's is a misplaced attribute that should be inside the tag 19:14:17 Adam: Glad to do that 19:14:25 Matt: Will assign you, Adam 19:15:07 Topic: PR 2991 - Practice Page for Supporting High Contrast 19:15:36 Matt: John, you made a lot of commits last week of December 19:15:47 ... But the preview isn't building 19:16:20 Jon: I also made some more changes last week and they're not coming through either 19:16:29 s/John/Jon/g 19:17:01 Matt: Looks like you addressed all of Adam's feedback and Adam approved 19:17:20 Matt: Some of the checks are failing, maybe this is affecting the build 19:17:50 rrsagent, draft minutes 19:17:51 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2025/01/14-aria-apg-minutes.html dmontalvo 19:18:46 Matt: Last change you made, all checks passed. 19:20:15 Matt: I know there is some kind of trick to get the other repo to re-build, 19:20:54 Mike: I can bring this to Howard's attention 19:21:10 Matt: Howard can take care of this 19:21:38 Matt: Also, there was editorial work that I wanted to do but I didn't get done, maybe I should complete this before having people look at this again 19:22:25 Jon: Changes just updated the light dark to use the light dark function 19:22:53 Matt: I just wanted to be as stable as possible. We did have other people who were assigned but didn't get to it yet 19:23:20 ... Let's aim for getting all the changes in there before the next meeting so that we can trigger another review round afterwards 19:23:37 Mike: Howard may be able to join us 19:23:57 Topic: Issue 3174 - Multi-thumb slider hover ring 19:24:25 Matt: Could anyone take this on with a PR? Howard made an analysis and it seems pretty straightforward 19:24:47 arigilmore: I can assign myself 19:25:28 Topic: Issue 3211 - Labeling tablist 19:25:45 Matt: Related to feedback from Mike Gower 19:26:21 ... Apparently both the tab list pattern and the naming guidance table are requiring a name on a tab list 19:26:52 ... When we wrote this we thought it was a good idea, but now we've discovered situations where it may be redundant and end up degrading the experience for screen reader users 19:27:31 ... Is the group willing to change this? Should we recommend it or make it discretionary? 19:28:58 ... In this particular case, if there is a visual label, we are requiring an aria-labeledby association 19:29:43 ... In our example, the lack of association would be problematic 19:30:05 ... The question is how frequently the case is for tabs that don't have a visual label and should not have a aria label 19:30:25 ... I proposed a couple of conditions at the end of the issue 19:31:55 ... Mike has created a PR, haven'tlooked at the wording yet 19:32:19 ... I am feeling like this could be either way but I am leaning towards recommended 19:32:35 q+ to supportr Matt's comments 19:33:18 Siri: Tab list should have labels if there is no previous heading. Should it be required when there is no heading? 19:34:05 Jon: If the ARIA spec does not require it we can't require it 19:34:09 Matt: We could 19:34:36 Jon: If there is a visible label, 100% recommended. And also that people clarify what labels mean 19:34:52 guidance that naming is unnecessary when both 1) there is no visible text that can serve as a useful name , and 2) individual tab names are sufficiently meaningful. 19:35:54 present+ jongund 19:37:25 Matt: For example, when tabs are used for navigational purposes, I'd still name the tab list 19:37:34 Jon: The above text seems an improvement on what we have 19:37:36 Adam: Agree 19:37:54 q- 19:38:41 Matt: We may have a PR for review by the next meeting, either by Mike or by myself 19:38:46 rrsagent, draft minutes 19:38:48 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2025/01/14-aria-apg-minutes.html dmontalvo 19:39:06 Topic: 2991 preview generation 19:39:43 Howard: I addressed it. Some work was done in the preview generator repo last year, and this should prevent this issue from happening again 19:40:00 https://skipto-landmarks-headings.github.io/page-script-5/extensions.html 19:40:07 Topic: Skipto 19:40:30 Jon: There is a new feature that provides sequential access to headings and landmarks, if anyone has time I'd appreciate any feedback 19:41:23 s/new feature/work on a new extension that includes a feature/ 19:43:01 Jon: You can run this on any browser, which give you shortcuts similar to the navigation features some screen readers have 19:43:18 ... It also implements some of the UAAG 19:43:58 Matt: It'd be helpful if people in this group help Jon before we circulate this further 19:44:16 Topic: Live regions guidance 19:44:37 Matt: I refactored that, there is a PR available waiting for volunteers to continue the work 19:44:58 Jon: I can take it up after the work on contrast is finished 19:45:14 Matt: We also have to redesign how the landmark pages are, they don't follow the rest of APG 19:45:34 rrsagent, make minutes 19:45:35 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2025/01/14-aria-apg-minutes.html dmontalvo 19:46:03 Chair: Matt 19:46:04 rrsagent, make minutes 19:46:05 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2025/01/14-aria-apg-minutes.html dmontalvo 20:29:31 jongund has joined #aria-apg 20:56:54 jongund has joined #aria-apg
