Web Payments Teleconference Reminder -- Shane, Janina

 

   Janina: We have committed to work on a review as a subteam.

   Next Mon at 1pm EDT. 3 people have signed up. Others are

   welcome to join.

 

CSUN Highlights -- Open Discussion

 

   Janina: Really hot braille display...

 

   Rich: Pearson working on an editor for digital math, supports

   braille displays. Awesome.

   ... If the user can navigate a math equation via keyboard, math

   understanding increases by 10-15%.

 

   Janina: American Printing House & NFB cooperation for braille

   display.

   ... Will be much cheaper than current devices, about $500.

 

CSS Progress -- Rich, Cynthia, Michael, Leonie

 

   Rich: We asked them to deal with the interop issue, e.g. flex

   box, content injection. If it doesn't support accessibility,

   WCAG people will be forced to mark this technology as not

   accessible.

   ... Then it comes back to you - why didn't you make this

   accessible?

   ... Met with Rosson and Bogdan, CSS co-chair. Interop spec for

   CSS. Can we work on this together? How do we staff it? - Was a

   good meeting.

 

   Michael: Called "CSS accessibility API mapping spec". Best

   practices doc is needed. They had agreed to work on this in the

   past.

   ... They told us it would be helpful to provide test cases

   demonstrating the concerns. We also talked of solving the

   navigation problem. Need to take a look at this from a broader

   perspective, across technologies (HTML, CSS, SVG).

   ... For flex-box issues and similar layout issues, we need the

   navigation problem solved. But cannot be done quickly. We might

   not be able to close this work before they close the specs.

   ... Joint tf between APA and CSS wgs? If CSS doesn't support

   this, we could create a CSS focus group ourselves.

 

   Janina: Who could do this?

 

   Michael: Cynthia? Bogdan?

   ... We need to help them understand the issues and to solve

   them. We need to provide resources for this.

 

   Janina: How can we make them understand the problem?

 

   Michael: Test cases.

   ... CSS flex-box is implemented, and we can easily demonstrate

   the problem.

 

   Janina: Maybe Matt is interested in this?

 

   Rich: The a11y tree needs to be reordered. With that they did

   not have an issue.

   ... They were reluctant to deal with keyboard tab index issues.

   They want tab index modifications be done by the author. Might

   be less problematic than restructuring the DOM. But the

   solution for tab index requires positive integers to change

   order. Very brittle solution. We need to go back and look at kb

   navigation again, also other types of input.

   ... Similar issues with SVG, directional navigation - not

   possible with tab index. Feature in XHTML was to build a link

   chain for focus navigation. We need to bring back this concept

   back.

 

   Michael: I was referencing most of what you said. We keep

   referring to other groups to solve the problem.

   ... Rough plan was to start now with CSS a11y API mapping.

   Navigation issues need to be addressed likely in a separate

   document.

   ... Still need the people to work on this

 

   Janina: Still concerned about whether CSS and other graphics

   people are fully convinced about what we talk about is a real

   problem.

   ... We need to illustrate the problem in a couple of test

   pages.

 

   Michael: Issue of generated content not being exposed is

   already illustrated.

 

   Fred: Talk to Matt and Bryan?

   ... Show them how it impacts the user. Need the personal user

   experience and awareness of the issue.

 

   Michael: Walk them through a demo file rather than just

   talking.

 

   Janina: We can invite Bryan.

   ... Next steps are to draw Matt and/or Bryan into another

   conversation.

 

   Michael: Cynthia should be involved as well. Also ARIA wg.

   ... Session in ARIA group on CSS.

 

   Rich: Right now, don't have any room on our plates.

 

   Michael: Suggest Cynthia starts the mapping, and ARIA should be

   informed that this would become a deliverable of them.

 

   Rich: No time right now at all in ARIA, until ARIA advances.

 

   Michael: Fair enough. What can we do on this from an APA

   perspective?

   ... Can we take this up in APA?

 

   Janina: How can we avoid going silent on this? Let me see if we

   can talk with Matt and Cynthia next week. First step would be

   to demonstrate the issues.

   ... Put together some illustrations to keep activity happening.

 

   Michael: Rosson was saying he would come back to this group.

   ... Willing to talk to us by end of this week.

   ... Should also inform WAI coordination committee (or similar

   name).

 

W3C Spec Styling Issues -- Michael

 

   Janina: What is left over?

 

   Michael: People weren't surprised by the styles. We need to

   sort out problems over time.

   ... In theory, they want to revise the styles annually. Both an

   opportunity to get improvements in next time, but also

   obligation to check things out next year.

 

   Gottfried: Is there a process for us to check their styles

   before they go public?

 

   Michael: Yes, there is a process. We missed it this time -

   wasn't well coordinated on our end.

 

Actions Procedure Tweaks -- Janina, Michael

 

   Janina: How can we work with our actions more cleanly?

   ... Suggest to make the action item reviews simply as

   pending/done etc.

   ... If people have finished their action items, they should

   send a message to the group, and i will then take it up for the

   agenda of the next meeting.

 

   Gottfried: Good suggestion. Email with action item number gets

   recorded in the system.

 

   Michael: People need to remember this.

 

   Gottfried: Send automatic reminders?

 

   Michael: Not a feature as far as i know. Could send a feature

   request. Also can get ennoying for authors.

 

   Gottfried: Send an automatic email when the action item is

   created?

 

   Michael: Yes, we can make this setting.

 

   Janina: Good suggestion
