Current docuemnt: LexiconOverview9.xls

Topic 1 - ATAG entries

Discussion - "e.g." vs. "for example"
decided that "for example" should be used

Discussion - use of mark-up language
Thus need to be inlcuded in the glossary?
previously some people suggested this as a term that should be inlcuded
ATAG 2.0 has this in its glossary:
"Markup Language - A markup language is a syntax and/or set of rules used to manage markup (e.g. HTML [HTML4], SVG [SVG], or MathML [MATHML])."

HB:  a markup language is a syntax and/or set of rules used to manage content and structure?

Carol: a syntax and/or set of rules used to manage content and structure?

Include examples

Andrew: ... for documents and objects?

Henk has final wording

Henk wants to present ATAG glossary suggestions to EOWG this Friday

All agreed on definition

currently gives 13 entries from ATAG 2.0

Topic 2 - H-O entries

Discussion about H-O selection
accepted 16 words from this group

Topic 3 - P-Z entries

Discussion about P-Z selection
currently 16 entries have been chosen at least 3 times - but will leave this open a little longer
discusison about "text equivalent" - seems important to include even if not voted in
"Photosensitive Epilepsy, Photoepilepsy" gets a "?" as we don't inlcude other disabilities, but Harvey agues it is a critical condition
"PDA" should this be in? - Probably not - tag with a "?"
"placeholder" - checkpoint 10.4 WCAG 1.0 - deprecated, but not officially - flag with a "?"
"query-by-example" - decided to delete at this stage

Next steps:
- work through the list from A-Z and check
- Henk will update from today
- 5-6 words per week and work on descriptions
- all selected words will be in the 'total lex' tab in alpahabetical order

Next meeting - ??
