15:04:33 <Zakim> agendum 1 -- Global Inclusion feedback on introduction to issue paper -- taken up [from julierawe]
15:05:16 <julierawe> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1B1vCqlU1IF5UmqxhJAy8Khdi-kRQNPalVX8f3lCMr7w/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.ygyjqiz5veyw
15:06:36 <julierawe> The Global Inclusion community group discussed the introduction yesterday
15:08:37 <julierawe> Jan The group looked at the focus of the paper--voice systems and conversational interfaces--and talked about how cognitive accessibility can also benefit non-native speakers who don't have disabilities.
15:12:25 <julierawe> Jan The group recommended adding a sentence to the introduction that acknowledges people who are learning a new language will have cognitive-related support needs.
15:13:23 <julierawe> Jan Can we simply modify so the introduction isn't limited to disabilities? Can we expand to include additional characteristics that allows us to mention people who are not fluency in a language
15:15:38 <kirkwood> present+
15:50:01 <julierawe> We discussed during the call adding a sentence high up in the introduction that mentions internationalization.
15:50:54 <julierawe> We also discussed adding an editor's note that says we're planning to expand the paper to include more challenges with internationalization and localization that users may encounter with voice systems and conversational interfaces.
15:51:37 <julierawe> Next steps: Julie will tag Lisa in margin and comments and send an email explaining the small changes we're suggesting before we publish the working draft.
15:52:08 <julierawe> Next steps: Jan will be ready at Monday's meeting to update the task force on today's discussion.
15:56:14 <julierawe> julierawe Noted that we are only suggesting these additions to the voice systems paper. The Global Inclusion only reviewed that paper and already has specific ideas on how to expand it.
15:56:47 <julierawe> julierawe Noted that Global Inclusion has not yet reviewed the other two issues papers so we are not advocating for adding these internationalization placeholders sentences to those papers yet.
16:00:26 <julierawe> julierawe This was a good lesson learned about needing to think about internationalization sooner in the process.
16:01:13 <julierawe> julierawe We need to connect with the Research Subgroup and make sure internationalization is top of mind as new issue papers get drafted.
