Results from today's WCAG WG meeting: all our changes accepted, with two editorial edits; also a review of our remaining tasks

Hi gang,

At today's WCAG WG meeting, we went over our penultimate survey 
<https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/Penultimate/results>.  They 
accepted as proposed:

  *   Definition of accessibility services of platform software
  * Programmatically Determined
  * Programmatically Set
  * Principle 4:
  * Guideline 4.
  * Short Name added to title

They had two minor editorial changes to the Note in Change of Context, 
and the Note in SC 3.2.1 On Focus:

In the Change of context note they removed a phrase to make things more 
clear:

    [Note: a change in the user agent might include bringing up a new
    windowto handle a new or some portion of the document, or might be a
    significant change in the menus and/or toolbars that are displayed
    and available for interacting with some portion of the document.]


In the SC 3.2.1 Note, the modified the first phrase of the final sentence:

    Note: Some compound documents and their user agents are designed to
    provide significantly different viewing and editing functionality
    depending upon what portion of the compound document is being
    interacted with (e.g. a presentation that contains an embedded
    spreadsheet, where the menus and toolbars of the user agent change
    depending upon whether the user is interacting with the presentation
    content, or the embedded spreadsheet content). So long as the
    mechanism by which the user indicates they are interacting with a
    different portion of the compound document is by some means other
    than reception of focus within that portion of the compound document
    (e.g. by a menu choice or special keyboard gesture), that [If the
    user uses a mechanism other than putting focus on that portion of
    the compound document with which they mean to interact (e.g. by a
    menu choice or special keyboard gesture), any resulting] <glossary
    link>change of context</glossary link> wouldn't be subject to this
    success criterion because it was not caused by a change of focus.


Gregg and I feel these are editorial changes, as no meaning changes.  If 
anyone disagrees, please reply in this thread stating that, and we can 
discuss it on Friday.


Otherwise, I think all the work that remains is noted on To do before 
3rd/final public draft 
<https://sites.google.com/site/wcag2ict/to-do-before-3rd-final-public-draft>: 


  * Michael to integrate all approved changes (much of this is done,
    some still remains)
  * Potential edits to come from Judy to the introduction
  * Decide (and spell out in introduction) what our comment period should be
  * Misc. editorial issues (do WCAG2ICT Notes go inside or outside the
    "white box", etc.)
  * Our final check (and approval) of the intended 3rd public draft
  * WCAG WG's final check (and approval) of the intended 3rd public draft


How much of this can we do in the coming 7 days...?
