Meeting minutes

Scheduling

Lionel_Wolberger: Should we propose a breakout group for TPAC 2025?

Janina: We should clarify the goals

Jason: The more open inquisitive, intelligent discussion the better. We would need to capture it

Janina: How would we respond to negative feedback?

Jason: Where do we store this feedback
… this technology has been around for 20 years. We are ready to educate.

Lionel_Wolberger: Auditors today are often asked to audit a site with a post-source remediation solution in place

Jason: That post-source solution is often silent. There are trade-offs to any approach

Janina: If you do remediation right, no one cares how you get it done

Jason: My target audience is for the end user, and the website manager

Chris: End users would want to understand post-source, that one person's accessibility settings are hard to communicate with another end-user

Janina: WCAG claims to be technology agnostic. If it is, then post-source is just a form of technology
… a breakout session should be done as long as we have clear goals

Lionel_Wolberger: We could pull up the requests and conversation at the original kick-off Breakout, then report how we dealt with that

Janina: +1

Chris: The title and description should be defined

Edits and next steps

Janina: Edits are not in place; I need a meeting with Mike when I return to my office

Janina: Remaining steps are (1) all the places with missing bla bla, I sent out the list of ~17 items

Jason: They look good to me

Lionel_Wolberger: TO BE EDITED: 3.5.3 Shadow and Outline Effects, the WCAG styling extends to the following paragraph
… these needs editing: 5.4.4, 6.5

Preliminary announcement

Chris: An announcement that publication is coming will likely prepare audiences to get involved
