Attendees:

Tim Boland
Greg Pisocky
Jan Richards
Jutta Treviranus

Action Items indicated with an AI:

Face to Face:

No dates in May that are possible at NIST.
Looking at Toronto, tentatively week of June 12, 2006. Possibly 12 - 14. OK
for JT, JR, GP and TB.

------

A.1.4 Ensure changes to the display settings of editing views do not affect
the content being edited.

All: APPROVED

Rationale: Authors may require settings to render and control the content
during editing that differ from the presentation defined for the published
content (e.g. providing a high contrast setting to edit content that is not
intended to be high contrast)

All: APPROVED

SC1: The author must be able to configure the display settings of editing
views without affecting the Web content being edited. 

All: APPROVED

Technique A.1.4-1.3 [Advisory]:
Allowing the author to specify a preferred style sheet that will override
the "published" style of the document in the editing view.

All: APPROVED

---------------

JR's B.2.7 proposals:

[action 1] Moving checkpoint B.2.7 to Section B.3 (I think it fits under
"integration") and rewording it as: "Document features of the tool that
support the production of accessible content." 

[action 2] Changing the success criterion to specifically reference the
features related to section B.2, for example: SC 1. All features of the tool
that play a role in satisfying the success criteria for checkpoints B.2.1,
B.2.2, B.2.3, B.2.5, B.2.6 and B.2.9 must be documented in the help system.
(note the wording parallels A.3.3) 

[action 3] Moving B.2.8 to Section B.3 (I think it fits under
"promoting") and rewording it as: "Ensure that any authoring practices
demonstrated in *repair instructions* or documentation are accessible" (note
that repair instructions, a term used in B.2.3, is separated from help
system-type documentation. 

[action 4] Reword B.3.2 and its success criteria to follow the new pattern
in [actions 1 and 2]: "Ensure that features of the tool that support the
production of accessible content are always clearly available to the
author." 

[action 5] Reword B.3.4 and it's success criteria to follow the new pattern
in [actions 1 and 2]: "Ensure that features of the tool that support the
production of accessible content are configurable." 

Action JR: Rework B.3.4: Accessibility options must be turned on by default,
but you may opt out. If you do opt out, you are warned of the consequences,
and you are always allowed to opt-in. Opt-in is always available. (Rough
sentence)

All: All, revisit all of this and determine if the proposal is a good one.

-------------------------

replies. A.4.1. for BF. B.2.6. and B.2.7 

AI: GP B.1.3

AI: JR TBA...
