ACT standup

Helen: no progress

CarlosD: no progress also

Dan_Tripp: trying to get netlify preview locally... looking for help to solve tech issues in office hours

Shunguo: completed reviews

sashanichols: completed reviews and worked in test PR

Kathy: 3 rules submitted to AG... two came back with comments that are being addressed

TPAC ACT-R CG meeting

Helen: TPAC taking place in Japan this year, mid November
... we have been asked to say if are organizing a group meeting at TPAC or alongside
... is anyone planning to be at TPAC?
... or should we organize a zoom meeting?

CarlosD: We have office hours scheduled for that week

Helen: That would start around 9pm Japan

CarlosD: We could do a pool to inquire if anyone is planning to attend

Helen: We can do that, checking for potential times that would work

Pull Requests wanting Reviews https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+label%3A%22reviewers+wanted%22

Helen: Three pull requests still waiting for reviews
... Additionally, tried to assign 2279 (Target Size Enhanced) to Dan_Tripp
... We could use a volunteer to try to move that forward while Jean-Yves is absent
... 2099 has three reviews and can be merged
... 2022 is a new manual rule and needs reviewers to take a look at the examples

Dan_Tripp: When I get the netlify preview working locally I should be able to help with more examples for this rule

Helen: I will fix the failing checks in this PR
... 1845 still needs a third review

New Manual Tests Rule Creation Group https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/1952

Helen: Wilco created something that makes it easier to find SC without rules

<sashanichols> I think his PR is still a draft, so could have some bugs

Helen: There are a lot of SC without rules that could benefit from the manual rules
... please volunteer to work on manual rules
... there is a template to support the creation
... if you need someone to help writing the test cases, just ask for help from someone in the group

<Helen> https://deploy-preview-330--wai-wcag-act-rules.netlify.app/standards-guidelines/act/rules/wcag/

CarlosD: Do we have a list of potential rules waiting to be writen?

Helen: No, I just created a list of SC without rules, but now it is easier to find

<Helen> https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/blob/develop/pages/design/manual-template-empty.md

<Helen> https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/blob/develop/pages/design/rule-template.md

Helen: Remember that when you write a rule you don't need to test the whole SC at once, focus on a specific scenario related to the SC

CarlosD: And remember to create an issue introducing your idea to the group to get early feedback

Helen: final thoughts
