Re: Minutes HTML-A11Y - 07 January 2010 at 16:00Z - Topic: ARIA integration, more

BTW: I have standing regrets for the meeting, since it takes place in
the middle of the night for me.

I haven't been able to focus on video a11y work in the last month, but
intend to work a bit on the wiki, go through the new video-related
a11y bugs that have been registered on public-html, reply to some of
the threads that are still open from the end of last year in
particular with some new suggestions from Opera, and generally move
video a11y (in particular captions, subtitles, and audio descriptions)
forward in the next month.

We will have a open video software developers meeting next week in New
Zealand with several Firefox video developers attending (see
http://www.foms-workshop.org/foms2010/) and a discussion on video a11y
is definitely going to happen.

Also, I would like to point out that the W3C Media Fragments Working
Group has created a new specification at the end of December which is
now a first public discussion draft, see
http://www.w3.org/TR/media-frags/, so people are encouraged to give
feedback.

Best Regards,
Silvia.
