What do we want to accomplish? We typically get a lot done. October 26, Dublin 14:08:42 ack Fredrik 14:08:42 Fredrik, you wanted to react to Fredrik 14:09:43 Fredrik: Coralee posted a funding plan for invited experts and it may apply to TPAC. The deadline for applications is mid May. 14:09:43 Funding application: https://www.sovereign.tech/programs/standards 14:09:49 Deadline is 19th of May 14:10:29 chiace has joined #apa 14:10:37 matatk: this is different from previous years 14:11:43 ...please apply. We haven't encouraged people enough in the past. 14:12:07 ack me 14:13:09 I’m currently researching this at work, so I’m happy to help :) 14:13:19 ...we had a call in ADAPT discussing ML and customizing for the user. We explored use cases that overlapped accessibility and COGA and RQTF. We have a positive and negative overlap. 14:13:28 Slide deck at: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-adapt/2026Apr/0016.html 14:13:54 ...we've agreed to keep in touch about these opportunities to coordinate. 14:14:23 https://www.w3.org/2026/04/28-adapt-minutes.html 14:15:31 ...TPAC will be a venue for continuing the work. 14:16:45 subtopic: Well-known Accessibility Reporting 14:17:02 PaulG: Still looking for a home for this. TPAC? Any suggestions? 14:17:15 janina: I hope we can move on this before TPAC 14:17:29 ... would like to see it in WCAG 3; that will be hard by the end of the year; doable by this point. 14:17:32 scribe+ 14:18:21 janina: We need to have conversation in Adapt. We definitely want to be working on it ASAP and talking about it at TPAC 14:19:38 matatk: we haven't forgotten about this, I will at least informally ask around about the well-known pattern. 14:20:07 ...I suspect the advice will be the same but I'll get to it soon. In the meantime we can think about next steps. 14:20:54 ...we have to convince folks to include the rel value on their site then update the microformats wiki with useage information 14:21:59 ...I will also double-check the minutes of our previous meeting and file issues. If you're ok with ADAPT including it, we can help move it forward. 14:22:25 ...TAG and WHATWG would be separate threads. 14:22:45 q+ 14:22:53 ack mpaiva 14:22:58 https://github.com/w3c/wcag3/issues/84 14:23:39 subtopic: WCAG Content API 14:23:44 mpaiva: this was about creating a public API for the wcag content. I've use this for plugins and presentations. Not sure if this would be a good thing to present at TPAC. 14:23:49 janina: I think so. 14:23:49 See proposal from Marcelo https://github.com/w3c/wcag3/issues/84 14:23:52 q+ 14:24:10 ...a breakout would work well. 14:24:21 I wonder if something like that already exists, as it could've been useful to implement https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/quickref/ ? 14:25:09 mpaiva: let me know if you want to team up on this. 14:25:22 ack ma 14:25:39 matatk: I think it's a great idea. But something like this may already exist. 14:26:25 crwv why risinh today? 14:26:42 ignore that mis type, please 14:26:52 matatk: you can run a breakout session even if you're not at TPAC physically 14:27:00 ack me 14:27:08 q? 14:27:15 s/crwv why risinh today?// 14:27:22 s/ignore that mis type, please// 14:27:34 zakim, next item 14:27:34 agendum 3 -- New charters review -- taken up [from janina] 14:28:00 zakim, close this item 14:28:00 agendum 3 closed 14:28:01 I see 6 items remaining on the agenda; the next one is 14:28:01 4.

It talks about long script monitoring. It's focused on threads, particularly ones that don't get a chance to GC. Just looking at the spec. Some examples around performance observer. I think it's about fine-tuning performance stuff. It doesn't call out CSS directly; there are some notes 14:35:05 about terms used, which come from CSS. I'd have to read through it. 14:35:19 s/PaulG: PaulG: I/PaulG: I/ 14:36:11 zakim, next item 14:36:11 agendum 5 -- [Spec review requests](https://github.com/w3c/a11y-request/issues) -- taken up [from janina] 14:37:05 matatk: the first thing I want to discuss is tracking 14:37:16 subtopic: HTML in Canvans - tracking the tracking 14:38:09 ...I want to make sure we're looking at the right thing 14:38:28 HTML in Canvas PR (the main one?): https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/11588 14:39:03 HTML in Canvas issue (one of many?): https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/10650 14:39:32 rrsagent. make minutes 14:40:21 rrsagent, make minutes 14:40:23 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2026/04/29-apa-minutes.html Fredrik 14:41:08 https://github.com/gpuweb/gpuweb/pull/6250 14:41:23 TAG Design Review: https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/1204 14:41:50 https://github.com/WICG/html-in-canvas 14:41:51 https://github.com/WICG/html-in-canvas 14:43:37 matatk: makes note to look in ARIA and CSS repos 14:44:39 PaulG: There's an interesting discussion on Mozilla's standards-positions repo too 14:44:47 PaulG: And from ARIA in their meetings 14:44:53 https://www.w3.org/2026/04/02-aria-minutes.html#b300 14:45:49 matatk: this is a good rallying cry to pull all of the a11y groups together. 14:46:51 ...identify the key issues. Janina, Roy, and I need to triage the issues. We can highlight concerns. 14:47:35 chiace has joined #apa 14:49:30 PaulG: This is going to be big. They need to address accessibility sooner rather than later. Frameworks will spring up to support people making canvas-based sites. 14:49:46 PaulG: With GPU shaders and AI writing things, this is going to be so important that we get this right. 14:50:02 PaulG: If we don't there will be a flood of inaccessible, beautiful-looking slop. 14:50:20 From after 15 May, things should be calmer for me at work, so I’d be happy to help. You would just need to let me know what to do, and maybe share an example, so I can make sure I do everything correctly :) 14:51:25 matatk: APA's strength is talking about the use cases. It's important for us to keep track of issues. 14:51:56 subtopic: RDF 1.2 Syntaxes 14:51:56 tracking: https://github.com/w3c/a11y-tracking/issues/309 14:52:09 Fredrik's suggestion: The RDF/XML format is used to express arbitrary application data, which, in accordance with foundational W3C principles, should adhere to the organisation’s accessibility guidelines including Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) as well as other related, pertinent documents. Authors publishing such information are 14:52:09 also advised to carefully consider the needs and use of publishing such information, as well as the applicable regulations for the regions where the data is expected to be consumed and potentially revealed (e.g., EAA, CAA). 14:53:42 matatk: I don't think it's multi-modal, primarily for machines to read, all text. Do you think there's a subset of WCAG that would apply? 14:54:32 Fredrik: I'll think about it. 1.3.1 and 1.3.2 are the likely candidates. It's a meta format. 14:54:58 ...2.4.6 and 4.1.2 for good measure 14:55:12 lea has joined #apa 14:56:30 matatk: we can tell them what we'd like to see, get a draft issue and have folks review it async. I'm happy to go through that process for you. 14:57:18 rrsagent, make minutes 14:57:19 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2026/04/29-apa-minutes.html Fredrik 14:57:29 zakim, end meeting 14:57:29 As of this point the attendees have been JonCohn, janina, PaulG, Fredrik, Dr_Keith, matatk, chiace, mpaiva, tsaulter 14:57:31 RRSAgent, please draft minutes 14:57:32 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2026/04/29-apa-minutes.html Zakim 14:57:39 I am happy to have been of service, PaulG; please remember to excuse RRSAgent.
