Meeting minutes

New Business

Mark_Miller Mark is podcasting through his new company. This week's episode will discuss a chrome extension developed, which transcribes what a screen reader would speak on the elements of that page. It can help devs who may not be SR users to understand things they may be missing. Extension is going into beta testing.

<gb> Issue 345 Repetition in 'how to evaluate...' (by iadawn)

Jeff Kline: The repetition is needed since the same person may not be working on each of the items so the information is there for whoever is working on the section.

ack

<CharlesL> +1 JeffA!

JeffAdams-UN Add more detail in each of the sections to expand the introductory information of the dimensions

<Mark_Miller> Issue #232 ("Dimension Evaluation Instructions Are Problematic"):

JeffAdams-UN I'll review this and make recommendations to update intro section

<Mark_Miller> Issue #43 (The "Usability Issue"):

<Mark_Miller> Issue #346 ("Describe proof points"):

<Mark_Miller> Issue #348 ("Oversight missing" / "Governance and Oversight"):

Jeff Kline: The assessment tool also reiterates this material, and some may only use that. If they use that, so the guidance is there as well.

Jeff Kline: Definitions are already at top of it with specifics for the dimension. It may be that section that could inform the main document.

Mark_Miller Offered to work with JeffA on this also
