Announcements
1.Web Content is rechartering - announced - 2 stage process, 1.1 version,
then work on major revision

Discussion
1.Candidate Recommendation Stage
Are we obligated?
Showing implementations to director and in techniques document?
jg: review-new stage of recommendation. Proposed Rec-Candidate
(implementation period-demonstrate that guidelines are implementable)-Full Rec.
Our obligation-that our technical guidelines are usable by vendors, show an
example of each checkpoint in a browser or demonstration project. Where
no clear implementation get a vendor to make an example.
rs:will it push out timeline?
jg: should not puch out timeline. rs would be a good resource for DOM
demonstration, not asking for commitment. need examples of guideline 5....other
comments
rs: want to become more involved in DOM working group
jg: look through techniques, and fill in blanks
mq: send information to reviewers about new process
jg: reviews might not know about new process
mq: feedback about status of document
LC#137: Use of terms for disabilities, impairment -- add in agenda
jg: Denis Anson brought WHO def to f2f. jg brought to coordination
group...CG those defs are medical model, contemporary-more positive, inclusive.
Many disability groups do not like WHO def. CG recommends using standing
def. in the current document. Comments....
mq: so we don't have to change anything. its all personal preference
jg: good for keeping in harmony with other documents, and Judy Brewer would
balk. Issue closed. no decension in group.
LC#138: "Synchronized equivalent" v. "Continuous Equivalent"/ Proposed
split of 2.5 add in agenda
jg: coordinate with AU - not addressed in their document. should not have
dependencies. may have a problem with web content. WCGL is not
chartered hard to get together. send proposal to AU and GL with history and
proposal. Action item for Madelaine Rothberg, Marjia, Eric Hanson.
Action JG: Contact Madelaine Rothberg, Marjia, Eric Hanson, Ian .send
proposal to AU and GL with history and proposal.
2.LC#133: Priority of 10.1 compared to 10.3
http://cmos-eng.rehab.uiuc.edu/ua-issues/issues-linear.html#133
rs: on 10-1 provide input to api
jg: Ian has action on API issue. lets focus on priority
jg: allowing user to change input bindings
mq: changing 10-1 priority
jg: priority ok
rs: priority ok
db: priorty ok
Resolved leave priorites as is
3.LC#146: Review priorities of 4.16, 5.2, 8.3, 8.5, 10.3, 10.6
http://cmos-eng.rehab.uiuc.edu/ua-issues/issues-linear.html#146
review 4.16
ja: how does this apply to gui browsers
jg: poll group all ok with P2
Resolved: 4.16 P2
Resolved 5.2 revised 2 times
/* Ian Joins */
/* Ian becomes the scribe */
For checkpoint 8.3:
* Some agreement that the outline view is a technique for navigation.
Resolved:
a) 8.5 in 6 December draft now Priority 3.
b) Clarify that the view need not be active. Clarify that this is a
technique for 7.7
For checkpoint 8.3 in 6 December draft:
RS: A lot of non-disabled users don't have access to this information.
IJ: Is it a lot extra effort to follow the link and then hit back?
RS, DB: This is a usability issue.
JG: What are the implications to the UAs? Exposing the history list to the AT?
MQ: I find visited links to be useless. The information I get sometimes is
unreliable.
DB: I don't if the history list is available programmatically. I suspect it
is.
RS: I think so too.
Resolved: Priority 3
For checkpoint 10.3 in 6 December draft:
Resolved: Priority 2 (same)
For checkpoint 10.6 in 6 December draft:
DB: Do OS profiles count?
IJ: Yes.
RS: What about hand-held devices?
Resolved: Leave as P2 but clarify in the checkpoint text that this is for
operating systems where it's possible to identify oneself as a specific user.
4.LC#155: Propose change of priorities for checkpoints 5.3 (r/w access) and
10.3 (single key)
http://cmos-eng.rehab.uiuc.edu/ua-issues/issues-linear.html#155
For 5.3, resolved per ftf decisions.
/* Gregory joined */
/* Harvey joined */
/* DB leaves */
For 10.3
IJ: Is it P1 to be able to trigger some functionalities (non-configurable)
with a single key?
RS: Does this include closing the application?
JG: That's the problem, you don't know what people want.
RS: Single key could be hit multiple times. But this gets messy.
GR: Proposed useful baseline for deciding what's necessary for single-key
access: there are many single actions that you find on a menu bar. Perhaps
start by saying "For all single actions enabled by the UI".
IJ: In Word, for example, you can put buttons for each functionality on the
tool bar.
RS: You probably want to exclude author-defined access keys.
GR: There's a difference between serial single-key strokes and modifier
keys (two at once).
JG: Doesn't seem to me to be impossible to active functionalities without
single key.
IJ: What does "single key" mean:
a) Not two keys at once?
b) Single action?
RS: Real killer is requiring the user to hit several keys simultaneously.
Resolved:
* Move first two sentences from 1.4 to note for 10.7
* Add a note about single key access to 10.7
* Add a cross-reference from 1.4 to 10.7
Action Ian: Write Bryan Campbell/Håkon Lie for clarification and David
Clark, Mark Novak (cc the list).
Extra Telecon to Process Issues
Action JG: I will request the bridge for 5 and 12 January at 12:00 EST for
extra conference calls to clear the issues list by early January.
