      proposal about SCs and editors draft

Kathy: going through proposals – picking 10 that are at highest level of 
maturity to working group by end of day today to be included. Focus of 
this call to go through those items and see which ones we feel most 
strongly about. There are a few that we do have pull requests out already.
... when they going to pull requests they get a new number pull requests 
already – device sensoris 138
... other ones are single key shortcuts, touch with assistive 
technology, pointer gestures, no accidental activation and device 
sensors, change of content
... the ones we don't have pull requests on are orientation, target 
size, pointer, concurrent mechanism (pointer, concurrent mechanism may 
be can differ for now – will take more significant work to get them 
finalized)
... pointers with additional sensors which is the same basically as 
device sensors
... also speech input one and noninterference of AT
... two I was talking about for Detlev with is 62 and 61, pointer with 
sensors, pointer with additional gestures

Detlev: I don't have them now but I can't assign myself

Kathy: I can't assign either

<Jatin> +present

Kathy: the big question is which of these do we feel strongly about 
putting into the first release and which ones are we okay with not 
having in there
... 10 total – six already have four requests
... orientation and target size are almost done – 70 and 60.
... Pointer and concurrent mechanism I don't think we should worry about 
getting in – significant comments

Detlev: keyboard one – maybe could be covered with note

Kathy: I agree we could say that that one is something that we're going 
to do later, we visit for silver
... that leaves us pointer in puts additional sensors, speech

<Jatin> can you please post the SC link?

<Kathy> https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/pull/132

Kathy: this is pointer gestures

Shadi: use widget called assignees to assign – are you seeing that

Detlev: for me it looks like read-only information

Shadi: click assignees – I can assign

<Kathy> https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/pull/132

Detlev: tap right next to issues is pull request
... tricky thing from the testing point of view is you couldn't test 
this without having a mobile device

Kathy: isn't that no different than having a desktop or laptop to work 
with a keyboard

Detlev: it changes the game– they have to bring up something on mobile 
device, maybe several

Kim: it's exactly what we want to encourage

Chris: if you want to support mobile devices you have to test on mobile 
devices – that doesn't seem like a big issue to me

Kathy: speech input and noninterference with assistive technology those 
are the two remaining ones
... noninterference assigned to Josh
... we've taken out pointer, concurrent mechanisms and keyboard with AT

Kim: should have testers that can look across technologies

Kathy: noninterference – you don't need to be extra with everything

Detlev: like web design isn't using certain keyboard shortcuts because 
they know it's needed for AT

Kathy: big example here use of role equals application

Detlev: that's one technique

Kathy: we could put this one in and put a note about it being 
potentially and get people's feedback and asked for a wider thing
... Lisa had suggested that this could be merged in with standard APIs 
number 46

Chris: I was reading through standardized APIs 46 – short text at the 
top doesn't seem to match up but bottom description matches up perfectly

Jon: my feeling is noninterference in there now is narrow so there does 
need to be something in there. but I do hear people say that the user 
agent issue. I've run into issues in the past where the page had too 
many elements so not responsive to AT

Chris: there's very little about speech across the board, where the 
noninterference just trying to broaden

<chriscm> Sorry all, have to drop off!

<Kathy> Single key shortcut alternative Change of content Touch with 
Assistive Technology Pointer gestures No Accidental Activation Device 
sensors Orientation Target Size Pointer inputs with additional sensors 
Speech Input

Kathy: here's the list of 10

<Kathy> https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/issues/2

This one has a pull request – David put out there, we looked at it and 
commented it in the mobile task force. That was included in our 10 
because it had a label of mobile in it, but it's not really a mobile 
one. So we could add noninterference of AT because that is not really a 
mobile one

Kathy: does anyone have objections to this list of 10?
... that leaves out pointer, concurrent input mechanism, keyboard with 
AT and noninterference of AT would be left out – just at this time. they 
could all get in later

no objections

Kathy: I will go ahead and submit these to Andrew and Josh
... we don't have anybody doing speech input right now. Jon, could you 
do the pull request on it?

Jon: I can do the pull request, but not anything else on it

Kathy: Kim and I will try to keep up with comments on it if there are

<Kathy> https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/issues/68

Kathy: speech input number 68
... is there anything in orientation that's here still outstanding?

Jon: 4 issue was notification of change versus not clouding the issue by 
putting that in there as well

Kathy: so I think we're in good shape for these 10
... does anybody have any concerns about comments on any of these 10
... important to look at these as a whole
... proposal that just came out to put SCs in working draft, marking as 
such, this would encourage comment
... what I heard from Andrew is just because something doesn't get into 
the first public working draft does not mean that it can't be added in later

Shadi: my hope is that it will be linked – there are other ideas out 
there and maybe include links to github

Kathy: this is one way to move forward. We've got one more meeting 
before CSUN

Jon: yes – especially if you can also get a link in where other things 
are being discussed

+1 to a link

Jatin: 2.1.1 keyboard interfaces

Kathy: no change to that. We have success criteria that were proposed 
relating to touch – touch with AT, target size, pointer gestures, 
pointers with additional sensors, all related

Jatin: different methods of input – keyboard still applicable?

Jon: we are still requiring that keyboard interface be present – doesn't 
have to be a physical keyboard. As an example in iOS you can turn on 
voiceover and turn on speech and iOS has a sticky key feature. By using 
that voiceover feature you can then access the device with the keyboard 
using voiceover – proved that it can be done through the keyboard 
interface even though it's not...
... supported...
... without the ATrunning.
... it needs to be there in order to support a wide variety of assistive 
technologies. We also want to be supported with assistive technologies. 
multiple interfaces available – you don't have to carry a keyboard – so 
users can choose what works best for them

Kathy: are we saying we are recommending having a link or an appendix 
with all the other SCs, or to make a first draft on github so people can 
comment on them?

Jon: definitely a link – maybe not an appendix. But in my opinion I 
would like to see a section – here are some ideas – then we could get 
more feedback. Because a lot of people are not going to follow the link. 
But I'm not sure there is agreement on that

Kathy: making note about link
... I'll send out this list of 10 items to Josh. It looks like there's 
support for this. Thanks for all your help
