14:14:21 [ChrisLoiselle]

Bruce: I thought we were going to have sub headings on sub headings to distinguish between non-web documents and non-web software?
14:15:53 [ChrisLoiselle]
Mary Jo: We haven't included page title scenario, however we could introduce it.
14:16:17 [ChrisLoiselle]
Gregg: This would be place to do it.

q?

Under a heading "Applying SC 2.1.1 Keyboard to Non-Web Documents" state: This applies directly as written, and as described in Intent from Understanding Success Criterion 2.1.1.
14:17:31 [maryjom]
Also make sure we have a different heading "Applying SC 2.1.1 Keyboard to Non-Web Software"

https://github.com/w3c/wcag2ict/issues/753
14:21:46 [ChrisLoiselle]
Mary Jo: Is this needed in WCAG2ICT?
14:22:18 [maryjom]
EN 301 549 has this note for non-web documents in 1.4.4 Resize Text - NOTE: It is best practice to use only fonts that allow for scaling without loss of quality (e.g. pixelized presentation). This applies in particular to embedded fonts
14:22:50 [Mike_Pluke]
q+
14:22:50 [ChrisLoiselle]
Gregg: I think it is a good note. Old fonts that pixelates would be impacted. If there are fonts that are impacted, we are assuming it doesn't exist anymore.
14:22:54 [bailey]
q+ to ask why not apps?

14:23:24 [ChrisLoiselle]
Gregg: Not sure what happens on other platforms.
14:24:06 [ChrisLoiselle]

14:25:09 [ChrisLoiselle]
Bruce: Would we apply it to software and documents?
14:25:24 [ChrisLoiselle]
Gregg: I think it should go in both places.
14:25:44 [ChrisLoiselle]
Gregg: More in documents compared to software

Bruce: Ok.
14:31:00 [ChrisLoiselle]
Mary Jo: You can test views but it is aggregated up.
14:32:30 [ChrisLoiselle]
Mary Jo: Daniel copied what was in editor's draft. It was forked in to a publication repo.
14:33:02 [ChrisLoiselle]
Bruce: I'm not sure people would know to comment on branch
14:34:22 [ChrisLoiselle]
Bruce: If people were to comment on W3C Group Note (staging) it , https://2025-note--wcag2ict.netlify.app/ it would not be able to PR'd to editor's note
14:34:55 [ChrisLoiselle]
Bruce: So my PR on editor's draft may not be a one for one against the staging document issue 750 was based on.

chris: WCAG2Mobile: Draft feedback on the use of "view"
14:49:13 [ChrisLoiselle]
https://w3c.github.io/wcag3/guidelines/#dfn-view
14:49:17 [GreggVan]
q+
14:49:22 [maryjom]
There's a long conversation in the issue about concerns about using "view"
14:49:52 [maryjom]
s/There's/...There's/
14:49:58 [ChrisLoiselle]
q?
14:50:13 [maryjom]
...There's concern with using in the guidance a definition that is under development
14:51:10 [maryjom]
gregg: In WCAG 3, if we can make the definition of "view" work, we'll be using "web page" and "view". WCAG2ICT shouldn't use "view" because, in WCAG 2.2 there is no "view" defined.
14:52:00 [maryjom]
...they are using "view" without really knowing for sure that it will work and which won't be proven until WCAG 3 is further along and tests the concept and definition.
14:53:08 [maryjom]
...Since the WCAG2Mobile is also going into web on mobile, there use of "view" when applied to web content isn't par of WCAG 2.2
14:54:58 [maryjom]
ChrisLoiselle: Agree with Gregg. Though they are really trying to pull in the capabilities in mobile for titling a view, it doesn't seem ready to definitively require it. Do we need to open an issue in WCAG2Mobile?
14:55:25 [maryjom]
GreggVan: The differing interpretation in WCAG2Mobile causes some confusion.
14:56:06 [maryjom]
...also that they have their own WCAG2Mobile document it is confusing when the advice differs as a whole.
14:57:57 [bailey]
q+
14:58:10 [maryjom]
ChrisLoiselle: The problem is bigger than use of the term "view". It's worth filing an issue on this specifically, but think there needs to be a conversation with the facilitators regarding the broader concerns.
14:58:20 [maryjom]
ack bailey
14:58:50 [maryjom]
bruce: We aren't adding a definition of "view" to WCAG2ICT, right?
14:59:03 [maryjom]
maryjom: No, no plans to do that
14:59:43 [bailey]
q+ to say i think this is about wcag2mobile not 3
14:59:56 [maryjom]
Gregg: This is a future state, so since WCAG doesn't use the term "view" it's problematic to use it in WCAG2Mobile.
14:59:56 [GreggVan]
q-
15:00:42 [maryjom]
ChrisLoiselle: The WCAG2Mobile isn't enforceable - none of the current standards use this term.
15:01:47 [maryjom]
Gregg: EN 301 549 can't pick up new terms used in WCAG2Mobile
15:01:58 [maryjom]
...at least not this late in the process.
