RE: Proposal for Session on Well Known Destinations (WKD) in W3C Breakouts Day 2025

Thank you Abhinav, I have filed the proposal:
https://github.com/w3c/breakouts-day-2025/issues/9

 

Given that there are now several proposals, we may not get a slot that we
want. We should _all_ subscribe to that thread and watch out for
notifications on there (and we should be thinking about time slots we could
do in case the two we asked for are not possible).

 

I hope we get selected; it's an exciting proposal; looking forward to this!

Hi Lionel, Abhinav, all,

 

I didn't see a reply to my email, so I propose that I'll file the issue,
before our next Adapt call, and thus also before the deadline (the 12th).

 

Abhinav: I don't think we wrote down what times you could/couldn't present
on Breakouts Day (the 26th) - please could you reply with the times that you
are free? I will then request times that we can both make.

 

Thanks all,

 

Best regards,

 

 

Matthew

Thank you Abhinav, Lionel, all - I see you've made the edit that I was after
(link relation types).

 

I still need to tweak the structure of the Explainer - though we could
submit this even now, with a link to the explainer as-is.

 

Lionel: any preference as to whom should post this submission?

 

Best regards,

 

 

Matthew

Session Title: 
Simplifying Site Navigation: A Standardized Approach for Accessible
Destinations 

Description: 
 

Website visitors often expect and seek familiar pages such as contact us,
login, or shopping cart. But navigating websites can be a challenge,
especially for users who find complex layouts and variable terminology
difficult. Building on last year's feedback, this session from WAI-Adapt
Task Force introduces a fresh, semantic approach to navigation that
leverages HTML link relation types to define such well known destinations on
any page. We will also demo our updated browser extension which embodies
this new strategy- simplifying navigation without compromising on design.  

 
We will also facilitate discussion on open challenges identified by the
Cognitive and Learning Disabilities Accessibility Task Force (COGA)
regarding the clear presentation of destination types. For example, a help
resource may be categorized as a "Virtual Advisor," "Email Helpline," or
"Call Support." The goal is to ensure that users can simply understand the
nature of each option and set accurate expectations before engagement. 
 
Goals: 

*                Highlight the Challenge: Illuminate the challenges of
current site navigation and the potential for standardized solutions. 

*                Showcase Solution: Demonstrate via demo how a standardized
approach can streamline site navigation for all users. 

*                Engage the Community: Gather ideas on categorizing
destinations further to enhance clarity and accessibility. 

Agenda: 

1.                  Understanding Navigation Barriers: A brief look at
navigation challenges and why consistency matters. 

2.                  Demo: Walkthrough of our updated browser extension
employing the new semantic approach. 

3.                  WAI-Adapt's Proposed Solution: Explanation of our
approach based on standardizing navigation declarations using HTML link
elements and how it builds on last year's feedback.  

4.                  Interactive Discussion: Brainstorming on open concerns
from COGA to present various type of destinations to users. 

5.                  Next Steps: Inviting feedback and outlining plans for
horizontal and wide community review. 

 

Join us for an engaging discussion where your insights will help shape a
more accessible web for everyone!  ======= Side note: the SAP footer in the
previous email was a default template used by Abhinav and was not part of
the proposal text.
