Final call

[10]https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/461'

 

     [10] https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/461

 

   Wilco: 2 1-week and 2 2-weeks final calls

   ... Anything else we need to do in the auto-complete rule?

 

   Aron: The type attriute is now covered in the assumption, we

   may add something with auto-comoplete="off"

   ... Will create another pull request

 

   Wilco: Updates to test case design, and new rule to check the

   default language's markup in HTML elements

   ... Any questions?

 

   Helen: It is not clear what the actual purpose is?

 

   Emma: 461 has two links on it.

 

Rules ready for W3C publication

[11]https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/1120'

 

     [11] https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/1120

 

   Wilco: Working on the "non-empty title", waiting for TF

 

   JYM: id is unique looks like I have done it

 

   Wilco: Will hand it back to the TF

 

   Daniel: Audio - video should probably be taken by somebody who

   has actually written rules

 

   [Updated dates in the different issue sections]

 

   Wilco: I will take "Scrollable elements are keyboard

   accessible"

 

Element with role has required states and properties - Failed example

1 [12]https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/1373'

 

     [12] https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/1373

 

   Wilco: If you add up all the different specs, comobox doesn't

   really have a required role, the only one is aria-expanded

   ... ARIA 1.2 is getting close to publishing

 

   JYM: Would it make sense to change that example to something

   elase as the combobox pattern seems to change a lot?

 

   Wilco: The only role with required attributes is the scrollbar

   ... Anything else either has default values or is changing

   ... ARIA 1.2 does not have default value for aria-level

 

   Aron: if aria-level is not going to have value of 2, it may not

   be announced by ATs

 

   Wilco: It may happen.

 

   Aron: aria-controls is required in ARIA 1.2, I know the

   confusion is around 1.1

 

   Emma: Think should be going with the latest version

 

   Wilco: Latest is 1.1, and is also requiring to support 1.0

   ... Conformance checkers should continue to support 1.0

   ... If we are supposed to follow 1.1 and 1.0, we cannot say

   aria-controls is required

 

   Adil: Probably the example should be passing, and we can add

   anote that the example will be updated once ARIA 1.2 is

   published

 

   Wilco: The only thing we could use to replace the example is

   scrolbar

   ... We could start using ARIA 1.2 in this rule

 

   JYM: If there are only two examples we can test in this rule

   with ARIA 1.1, this might look like a weak rule, it might be

   useful for 1.2

 

   Emma: Implementers may need to take a decission as to whether

   to implement it or not

 

   Helen: To future-proof it, you have the rule now so it covers

   you for the eventuality that it might change

 

   Wilco: My preference is to wait, if anybody wants to take it to

   migrate it to 1.2...

   ... Anybody disagree with that?

 

   RESOLUTION: Leave this rule as is until ARIA 1.2 comes out.

 

"Links with identical accessible names rules" should check link text

and not accessible name

[13]https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/1378'

 

     [13] https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/1378

 

   Wilco: Our link rules use the accessible name. Mark is arguing

   that it is not about the accessible name but the visible text.

 

   Emma: Should be about both. Visually you get the visible text,

   but screen readers are getting the accessible name.

 

   JYM: Agree with Emma

 

   Adil: This is for the links that contain text, links that do

   not contain text, images should be assessed under 1.1.1

 

   Aron: You can have accessible name with some other text and

   still pass the criteria, those types of rules still apply to

   visual content only. I see WCAG is not requiring that

   accessible names, but visual text

 

   <Wilco> [14]https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Techniques/aria/ARIA8

 

     [14] https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Techniques/aria/ARIA8

 

   Anne: I wrote the rule, I remember having this discussion

   before. There is a lot of ARIA under techniques for 2.4.9

 

   Emma: Techniques for 2.4.4 talk about alternative texts, so

   they are getting into the accessible name

 

   Wilco: Link text mean accessible name. Otherwise linked images

   would not apply, which seems odd to me.

   ... Also this is about the programmatically determined context,

   not visible text.

 

   Anne: In the definition of mechanism, it refers to assistive

   technologies

 

   Emma: Where is the requirement for visible name and accessible

   name to do or be the same?

 

   Wilco: 2.5.3

 

   Aron: There are some caviots to it, it does not need to be the

   same, if it is preceeded by some words

 

   JYM: We had a lot of discussion, we decided to add an

   assumption not to use homonyms. There are a few border-line

   cases

   ... WCAG doesn't say this, but it is a reasonable assumption

   that needs to be made

 

   Helen: Some of this is down to the application of it when using

   assistive technology. Maybe you go to the first one and you

   wanted to go to the second one

 

   Aron: Some highlight the two links and ask for numbers

 

   Wilco: Proposal -- leave the rule as is and provide Mark the

   feedback from this meeting.

 

   Adil: This rule is better related to the programmatical

   context. The other aspect of the sc to check the link text, we

   may want to have another rule for that.

 

   Emma: The visible link text will always be used in context, you

   would only need one extra rule.

 

Element with aria-hidden has no focusable content - Passed Example 3

is a fail

[15]https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/1386'

 

    [15] https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/1386

 

   <Wilco>

   [16]https://act-rules.github.io/rules/6cfa84#passed-example-3

 

     [16] https://act-rules.github.io/rules/6cfa84#passed-example-3

 

   Wilco: -1 makes it not part of the sequence of focus, but you

   can tap on it using screen

   ... I was looking at fixing it, but if you have an overlay on

   top of it, there is no way for you to tap on it

   ... It checks avoiding AT to get to something that does not

   need to be announced

 

   Aron: What is the purpose of this example?

 

   Emma: Modals, to make sure AT do not get to things behind it as

   it is open

 

   Wilco: You need to apply -1 to everything, there was a proposal

   for an attribute that could be added to the background content

   but did not make it through

   ... setting aria-hidden and role="none" is something people

   use, but creates problems

 

   Emma: I see valid cases for aria-hidden to be used even in

   visible content

 

   Wilco: Should we change the passed example?

 

   Adil: No, but maybe have an assumption that it may be possible

   to get to this element using touch screens

     [18] https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.1/#dfn-hidden

 

   Wilco: There is an issue opened about the definition of hidden

 

   JYM: We are using sequential focus navigationbut we are

   checking just a subset. We are passing this because we don't

   have a good enough definition of focusable. I am in favor of

   removing it, because it is failing what the rule was supposed

   to test

 

   Aron: In favor of removing the example

 

   Emma: Also reconsider passed examples 5 and 6

 

   Wilco: I am personally inclined to fix this. Maybe adding a

   requirement for it not to be clickable or tappable

 

   Adil: Is aria-hidden related to interactive or non-interactive

   content?

 

   Wilco: Both.
