15:08:56 <Zakim> agendum 1 -- Implementation details of EPUB metadata for publisher contact. -- taken up [from AvneeshSingh]
15:09:21 <Madeleine5> Madeleine5 has joined #pmwg-a11y

15:09:38 <Madeleine5> present+
15:09:58 <mgarrish> AvneeshSingh: should we be using role or another dedicated metadata
15:10:44 <mgarrish> mgarrish: I'd go with minting our own new property - using refines is too complicated
15:10:49 <mgarrish> AvneeshSingh: agree
15:11:55 <AvneeshSingh> zakim, next agendum
15:11:55 <Zakim> agendum 2 -- Decision on AccessmodeSufficient. -- taken up [from AvneeshSingh]
15:11:55 <mgarrish> RESOLVED: add properties for publisher and trusted intermediary contacts
15:12:12 <AvneeshSingh> https://github.com/w3c/epub-specs/issues/2679
15:14:20 <mgarrish> mgarrish: it's problematic to reduce requirements in new standards as it makes it incompatible with older versions
15:14:36 <mgarrish> George: maybe we should only make access mode sufficient required
15:14:48 <mgarrish> Madeleine5: access mode sufficient is the most complicated to understand
15:15:19 <mgarrish> George: it's repeatable but we allow textual and visual as single statements
15:15:46 <mgarrish> AvneeshSingh: can this be automated
15:16:14 <mgarrish> Madeleine5: yes, I've automated these in the past to make access modes from other metadata
15:16:46 <mgarrish> AvneeshSingh: daisy pipeline computes metadata when it compiles an epub - but need to check if it works with edge cases
15:17:39 <mgarrish> AvneeshSingh: we could bump it up to mandatory and see if people resist
15:17:55 <mgarrish> Madeleine5: so we want compatibility with previous
15:20:27 <mgarrish> mgarrish: content doesn't break if we change the conformance identifier
15:21:20 <mgarrish> AvneeshSingh: let's update the tracker that we're going to move it to a requirement and if we don't get any negative feedback after a couple of weeks we can move it to the spec
15:21:23 <AvneeshSingh> zakim, next agendum
15:21:23 <Zakim> agendum 3 -- Creation of a common document for explaining the accessibility metadata. -- taken up [from AvneeshSingh]
15:21:55 <mgarrish> https://github.com/w3c/publ-a11y/pull/723
15:23:29 <mgarrish> mgarrish: consolidates all the information about the accessibility metadata that was spread around in different documents and consolidates it into a single new guide that we'll maintain
15:23:53 <mgarrish> George: is this rec track?
15:24:03 <mgarrish> mgarrish: no, this will be maintained by the CG
15:24:38 <AvneeshSingh> zakim, next agendum
15:24:38 <Zakim> agendum 4 -- upgrading the floor WCAG specification for EPUB Accessibility 1.1.x from WCAG 2.0 to 2.2. -- taken up [from AvneeshSingh]
15:25:06 <AvneeshSingh> https://github.com/w3c/epub-specs/issues/2717
15:25:08 <mgarrish> AvneeshSingh: should we elevate the floor from WCAG 2.0 level A
15:25:34 <mgarrish> ... there is no urgency to make this change - WCAG 2 versions do not supersede each other
15:27:08 <mgarrish> mgarrish: what about raising just the level?
15:27:21 <mgarrish> AvneeshSingh: could be problematic as some regions still only require level A
15:29:02 <mgarrish> AvneeshSingh: let's continue with the status quo and see if we get any other feedback
15:29:02 <AvneeshSingh> zakim, next agendum
15:29:02 <Zakim> agendum 5 -- Next meeting on June 19. -- taken up [from AvneeshSingh]
