<janina> https://typst.app/docs/reference/html/

Janina: For interesting A11y tools, on LaTeX - a Rust based replacement is on the way called TYPST. It will support valid HTML.

Janina: This may be worth following around HTML markup support for A11y. Just FYI.

Input events

WebRTC API

<matatk> w3c/a11y-request#98

<matatk> Due: 2025-01-31

matatk: Web RTC - had no issues with it (issue 98 - RTT). We will let this issue go and close it.

WebCodecs

<matatk> w3c/a11y-request#97

<matatk> Due: 2025-02-28

<Fredrik> By the way, it#s "clear audio".

matatk: Web codecs, issue 97 around routing/stream splitting. Would like to keep open but not required. Maybe file new issue with new use case concerns would be useful - 2nd screen in the MAUR as clean audio.

webauthn-3

<matatk> w3c/a11y-request#101

<matatk> Due: 2025-03-31

Comment review requests

[css-overflow-5] Focus order of generated controls

<matatk> source: w3c/csswg-drafts#10912

<matatk> tracking: w3c/a11y-review#216

matatk: For this, it was about scrolling, controls, asking how it works (CSS scrolling)- not clear.

<matatk> We have an update on the scope of this CSS question, and how it relates to the wider project of CSS carousels and scrolling...

<matatk> Explainer for CSS carousel (mentions scroll buttons): https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/blob/main/css-overflow-5/carousel-explainer.md

<matatk> TAG design review thread for CSS Scroll Buttons: w3ctag/design-reviews#1054

matatk: Wider project with CSS to make decent CSS based carousels for a11y. TBD about wider attempt to improve scrolling.

<matatk> About Explainers: https://tag.w3.org/explainers/

Matatk: The CSS explainer notes that they could focus but don't have to. And how it fits into the wider project related to carousels and generalized interaction.

PaulG: Noted that order based issue was closed and makes sense. But the context of when they want to implement their new proposal isn't clear.

<matatk> Related (I think): CSS inert: w3ctag/design-reviews#1055

PaulG: Other concerns around inert and searchability

matatk: Will pass on these concerns to the CSS group.

<PaulG> https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/10912#:~:text=Once%20you%20interact,in%20tab%20order.

matatk: next steps are to ask questions to the CSS group based on what-if scenarios
