      Agenda Review & Announcements


      Task Force Updates: COGA; Others?

<Rachael_> Current version of this document is at:
https://raw.githack.com/w3c/coga/changes-after-0327/content-usable/index.html

Lisa: COGA has been working on a large document covering several aspects
of making content usable for people with cognitive and learning
disabilities. It covers design, use cases, patterns, other areas [links
above].
... the content is non-normative: it points at various things that are
known from research to work for different people, but doesn't require
particular approaches - user testing will show what works for your users
and it's fine to go with what you know works for your users. It's not
designed to give mandatory requirements.
... the COGA team is seeking a wide review, and hoping to publish it.

Rachael: COGA has been working iteratively on this; hoping to publish it
as a final deliverable. It's informative, not normative, but COGA feels
it would be widely useful and wants to publish later in the year
(~August-September).

Janina: CfC URL can be found above; be sure to copy comments to COGA list.

JF: Worth asking Education and Outreach WG for a review of this document
too.

Rachael: We'll be reaching out to them.

JF: Excited to read it; know it's been worked on for some time.

+1 :-)

Janina: *thinks the last publishing/review was ~5yrs ago* It's a good
time for another wide review, and it will be a useful document.

Lisa: Now COGA is seeking CfC to publish it and go to wide review stage.
Then it will be sent to many groups (including EO) for furtther comment
and review.
... *has got a lot of useful feedback when presenting the document as
part of talks etc.; good feedback from ATOS, Google, etc.*

JF: +1. There's a lot to read, so wide review will be good. Urgest COGA
to ask EO as early as possible.

Lisa: *notes current CfC is just for APA to publish, with further
review/input to come soon after*

Irfan: targeting end of June to publish Pronunciation technical document
~end of June. The moving to WICG.
... two technical approaches; attribute model (from TextHelp) already
has implementation.

<Joshue108> 4.4 Immersive personalisation #83

Janina: Personalization and Research Questions: the [above-linked]
related issue was contributed to the XAUR recently.


      W3C Web Redesign

<janina> Lisa, we lost your audio

Lisa: *has sent some use cases along*

      TPAC 2020 Planning Discussion

Janina: We are planning to have TPAC, in-person or virtually. The
questions are the same: who do we need to talk to; what do we need to
talk to them about and how much time do we need for the discussion?
... *asks APA as a whole to consider the above questions*
... One thing to discuss: there are sub knowledge domains vs. knowledge
domains e.g. different types of Chemistry have symbols that have
different meanings, depending on which area of chemistry one considers.
Something important to bear in mind when defining lexicons.
... Another topic: FAST updates.

matthew: Has looked at identified a11y prs and not found issues
... will continue at the remaining commits. Don't seem to be as many as
last time
... will focus on a11y identified items first--about ten of those

<Matthew_Atkinson> This was an issue that I thought _may_ warrant a note
in the spec to let content authors know that screen reader users could
encounter a problem. I am inclined to leave it to the WHATWG
accessibility team to decide if it's apt for the spec.

<Matthew_Atkinson> Hoping that some in the WHATWG accessibility team
(knowing the spec more than I) may mention either way.

<Matthew_Atkinson> Janina: would be nice to get an opinion; not sure if
it's urgent.

<Matthew_Atkinson> Michael: suggests tracking it, but not making it
blocking.

<Matthew_Atkinson> Janina: *agrees*

<Matthew_Atkinson> +1

<LisaSeemanKest> need to step away. thank you all

<Matthew_Atkinson> Michael: TTML comments - several
accessibility-related were filed. Gottfried provided some feedback.
