Dear EOWG Participants:

An agenda and logistics for our 23 November 2007 teleconference follow. 

Time:    8:30am - 10:30am U.S. Eastern Time. For other time zones see: 
       http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meeting.html 
Bridge:  +1.617.761.6200 / +33.4.89.06.34.99 / +44.117.370.6152, code: EOWG# (3694#) 
IRC:     Channel: #eo, server: irc.w3.org, port: 6665 

Scribe:  Henny (or Wayne or Andrew) (per www.w3.org/WAI/EO/2003/scribes.html) 

Agenda:

1. MWBP-WCAG Relationship
* Requirements/Analysis: http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/changelogs/cl-mwbp-wcag
* Latest version is linked from the top of the Requirements/Analysis
An updated version may be sent to the list before the teleconference.

Some areas for discussion:
a. The MWBP to WCAG section now incorporates both WCAG 1.0 and 2.0. They are in the same paragraph. Is that easy to understand with the "WCAG 1.0 /2.0" text in bold? Should WCAG 2.0 come first?
b. The WCAG to MWBP section has two parts, first it runs through WCAG 2.0 and how the success criteria relate to MWBPs. Then another section covers WCAG 1.0 and how the checkpoints relate to to the MWBPs. This makes for a lot of redundant wording. Is this organization good because most people will only want to read one section or the other? Other ideas for organization?
c. The cross references are often hyperlinks. This reduces redundancy and facilitates maintenance, but makes the document at time difficult to work with offline or on paper. To what extent should the document cite the actual text of WCAG (especially the techniques) and the MWBPs?
d. In the section "How does it help especially users with disabilities?", the text runs "Best Practices that have no specific benefit for users with disabilities beyond that experienced by the general user in the mobile context is marked [no added benefit]" Is that clear? Some people apparently think it means that the MWBPs in question have no benefit for people with disabilities, which is not the intention. Ideas for a better way to say this?
e. Ideas for the section "3. How Barriers Experienced by Web Users with Disabilities Parallel those in the Mobile Context"?

2. Approach to WAI-ARIA Documents
* http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/changelogs/cl-aria-docs
A document that maps the content for the new documents may be sent to the list before the teleconference.

3. WAI-ARIA FAQ
* http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/ARIA/faq.html
An updated version may be sent to the list before the teleconference.

Regards, 
~ Shawn

IRC reminders and tips: 
- IRC is supplemental to the call. Some participants do not have IRC. All substantive comments should be said verbally in the call (not just in IRC). 
- To type a side comment that will _not_ get recorded in the minutes, type /me comment - e.g.: 
/me hopes everyone had pleasant holidays 
will come out: 
*shawn hopes everyone had pleasant holidays
