Re: [aapi] Minutes: UAI TF Meeting Tue 26 August 2014

Re:  the following section near the end of the minutes:

> ... tables allow cells to expand/collapse rows from a gridcell
> ... a table is static

What I said was:

"a grid is like a spreadsheet, a  table is like a time table for a train.
... spreadsheets/grids allow for editing.  Users can change the contents 
of a cell, copy and paste, and so on.
... timetables/tables are static.  Users can read the cells, scroll 
around the table, but can't change anything.
... the accessibility APIs, however, only have a table role, and that is 
being used for both static tables and interactive grids.
... the mapping for the grid role should add something to indicate the 
interactivity.
"

(Note that ACTION-1396 suggests what the something should be for each AAPI).
