PRESENT Ben Caldwell Michael Cooper Tom Croucher David MacDonald Chris Ridpath DISCUSSION Review of HTML techniques [1] preparatory to discussion on thursday call. David will add a little content to a couple sections. Checklist items need to be converted to true-false statements. We also agreed that down the road we'd like "user-friendly" checklist items that assist in the process of developing a site; these would exist alongside the present true-false statements used in conformance evaluations. We also agreed a book-style index would be useful to add later. We will generate numbers for the techniques to faciliate discussions. On Techniques Gateway [2] we talked about different levels of alternative text (e.g., the difference between alt, title, and longdesc in HTML, though we tried to generalize). We came up with some definitions we liked to put into the next draft of the document. We briefly discussed headings within the Gateway document, which were confusing. It is already a goal to align the Gateway with the Guidelines, once a solid organization emerges, and we thought a lot of the header issues would be addressed by that process. ACTION ITEMS * Ben: Convert checklist items as TF statements * Tom: Create "yes/no" versions of checklist items * Ben: Generate technique numbers in XSLT * David: Write up longdesc on frame findings * Tom: Discuss concept of multiple levels of text equivalent with UAAG group REFERENCES [1] http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/WD-WCAG20-HTML-TECHS-20031020.html [2] http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/WD-WCAG20-GATEWAY-20030723.html -- Signature -- Michael Cooper Accessibility Product Manager, Watchfire 1 Hines Rd, Kanata, ON K2K 3C7, Canada +1 (613) 599-3888 x4019 michaelc@watchfire.com http://www.watchfire.com/ Watchfire's spam filter often mistakes legitimate email for spam.
