15:21:33 <Fredrik> matatk: We don't have any particularly new ones, sadly.
15:21:38 <Fredrik> matatk: WE have issues in the next one coming up.
15:21:52 <matatk> subtopic: [CSS Anchor Positioning Level 1](https://github.com/w3c/a11y-request/issues/142)
15:21:52 <matatk> Due 2026-01-30
15:21:56 <Fredrik> matatk: First off, back to specs. There is a reminder that htere is this one.
15:22:08 <Fredrik> matatk: There is probably also a meta issue not linked yet.
15:22:20 <Fredrik> matatk: There are a couple of people assigned to this.
15:22:23 <matatk> https://github.com/w3c/a11y-tracking/issues/289
15:22:47 <Fredrik> matatk: They are aski8ng for specific feedback on a11y considerations. We talked about that last week.
15:23:02 <Fredrik> matatk: Me, Paul and Eric are assigned to it.
15:23:13 <Fredrik> Fredrik: Pardon, no Oxord comma.
15:24:18 <matatk> subtopic: [DVB Accessibility Implementation Guidelines](https://github.com/w3c/a11y-request/issues/132)

15:24:45 <matatk> https://github.com/w3c/a11y-tracking/issues/266
15:26:13 <Fredrik> matatk: The next step with DVB is that those of us howho are MAUR literate shoudl check if there is something in the MAUR that isn't in the DVBa11zGL and vice versa.
15:27:16 <Fredrik> matatk: Anyone else wants to come on board with this one looking into it?

15:28:38 <RRSAgent> I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2026/01/21-apa-minutes.html Fredrik
15:28:54 <Fredrik> matatk: The first one is a new one.
15:29:02 <Fredrik> matatk: New-ish, really.
15:29:15 <matatk> subtopic: [CSS Content publishing without AAM](https://github.com/w3c/a11y-tracking/issues/276)
15:29:48 <mike_beganyi4> mike_beganyi4 has joined #apa
15:29:49 <mike_beganyi4> mike_beganyi4 has left #apa
15:29:49 <Fredrik> matatk: This is an issue that Paul filed and it's about a fact that CSS acknolwedge. There is no mapping for AT that is probably in need of mapping.
15:30:09 <Fredrik> matatk: Paul has linked to a particular comment and also a particular part of the CSS Contnt spec that notes that there is no AAM for CSS.
15:30:24 <Fredrik> matatk: Do we agree that this is an issue? Do we want to work on it? Does anyone wsant to draft something?
15:30:32 <mike_beganyi> mike_beganyi has joined #apa
15:30:41 <Fredrik> matatk: If the answer is yes, then we can track the progress of this issue.
15:30:57 <Fredrik> janina: We certainly have to get ARIA deeply involved if we are to take up AAM.
15:31:15 <Fredrik> janina: It would be a a major help. It's a job, a significant one.
15:31:33 <Fredrik> matatk: It's a nontrivial amount of work.
15:32:00 <Fredrik> matatk: Becky, Steve: input?
15:32:23 <Fredrik> becka11y: I don't  konw if I have the answers to that. CSS is not my forte, though. I can't comit at this time.
15:32:45 <Fredrik> matatk: We were asked for input earlier today how APA should do coordination between the different a11y groups. This is certainly cross-cutting.
15:33:26 <Fredrik> matatk: I might put a note on this issue thread about what we've discussed and coordinationa dn prodding folks lke Steve.
15:33:59 <Fredrik> matatk: Next one!
15:34:04 <Fredrik> matatk: We discussed these last week.
15:34:07 <matatk> subtopic: [Spec: Scroll Triggered Animations #272, COGA, disorientation considerations](https://github.com/w3c/a11y-tracking/issues/288)
15:34:08 <Fredrik> matatk: There's news, though.
15:34:28 <Fredrik> matatk: These are the four that COGA raised in response to the scrolling animations part of the CSS Animations.
15:35:58 <Fredrik> matatk: Just about this particular one, about people getting disoriented because of animation, doesn't seem just to be related to scrolling. What I am saying with my comment is that it should be included in a more general a11y section. Does taht sound reasonable?
15:36:46 <Fredrik> janina: This is a common pattern. A concern comes up with a particular spec and we want to discuss a certain topic which however is more related to the parent spec. This will happen again. The right concern but the wrong place to write the concern up.
15:37:27 <Fredrik> janina: AT the aboslute least we file an issue on the higher spec (or the lower one) so that we block the lower spec until the isue is satisfied
15:37:33 <Fredrik> janina: /satisfied
15:38:07 <Fredrik> matatk: Next spec!
15:38:14 <matatk> subtopic: [Spec: Scroll Triggered Animations #272, COGA, users often need more time impacts content type](https://github.com/w3c/a11y-tracking/issues/287)
15:39:32 <Fredrik> matatk: WCAG should cover some of this as I see it. Awareness of WCAG is quite good. If somethign isn't in WWCAG that specifically relates to CSS animations then we should propose that.
15:39:34 <Fazio> I don't think WCAG does enough
15:40:10 <Fredrik> matatk: I have a feeling that somehow the user agent applying some sort of scaling factor to timing values might have been discussed before.
15:40:34 <Fredrik> matatk: I don't know if it's been specified in seconds. That may have been discussed before.
15:41:13 <Fazio> q+
15:41:26 <Fredrik> matatk: What do people think?
15:41:37 <matatk> ack Fredrik
15:41:38 <janina> q?
15:41:40 <matatk> ack Fazio
15:41:56 <Fredrik> Fazio: We can't address anything in WCAG anymore. they are not going to revise 2.2 or any 2-series WCAG. We can only comment on the spec as far as I see it.
15:42:31 <Fredrik> janina: It's not dead, totally. 2.3 may be on the table.
15:42:45 <Fredrik> matatk: If somehting's already catered for in the WCAG we don't have to call it out here.
15:43:05 <Fredrik> Fazio: I don't think WCAG does nearly enough for issues like this, that's why I brought it up.

15:43:46 <Fredrik> matatk: Please add anythoughts to this thread above (issue 287).
15:43:57 <Fredrik> janina: We're stuck in trying to find where to document this thing.

15:45:30 <marcelo> I'll take a look
15:45:53 <Fredrik> matatk: This is the one where we say all these things need to go into an a11y consideratiosn chapter.
15:45:58 <Fredrik> matatk: Just a bit tidier.
