   <richardschwerdtfeger> Meeting: W3C ARIA Working Group

   <richardschwerdtfeger> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-aria/2016Jan/0146.html

   <scribe> scribe: janina

   <richardschwerdtfeger> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-aria/2016Jan/0146.html

   <richardschwerdtfeger> https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/decision-policy

Draft Decision Policy

   rs: Will be issuing a CfC
   ... ARIA policy is in sync with APA's

Testing

   <richardschwerdtfeger> public-aria-test@w3.org

   rs: More coordination still needed but
   ... Above is a test email list/archive for ARIA
   ... Will try to keep test meetings at a minimum
   ... Looking to coordinate with Steve Faulkner and with SVG
   ... We will not be applying host language restrictions in our testing

   mk: Is email list also for those writing test cases?

   rs: Yes

Action 1380 & 1700

   action-1380?

   <trackbot> action-1380 -- Richard Schwerdtfeger to #presentation should mention aria-hidden vs presentation role on raster and vector images in relation to
   ACTION-1379 -- due 2016-01-28 -- OPEN

   <trackbot> http://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/track/actions/1380

   action-1700?

   <trackbot> Sorry, but action-1700 does not exist.

   rs: What happens with ARIA-Hidden vs Role=None or =Presentation
   ... Webkit handles differently
   ... Tried adding TAB Index inside an SVG; Didn't work
   ... For now we will treat as a single graphic

   <richardschwerdtfeger> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-aria/2016Jan/0136.html

   rs: Please consider if OK

   jf: Asking about test list -- how to subscribe ...

   mc: I will get it documented

   <Zakim> JF, you wanted to ask about subscribing to that new mailing list - details?

   <AmeliaBR> Amelia's detailed comments: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-aria/2016Jan/0148.html

   <MichaelC> https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-aria-test/

   ab: Wondering whether belongs in HTML Mapping?
   ... HTML clear that image is different from object/iframe
   ... No api for HTML image
   ... Suggesting adding recommendations for UAs to do smart things when authors haven't fully marked up
   ... Would be good to know up front whether an image is supposedly a11y

   rs: That would be an HTML-WG responsibility
   ... Perhaps some guidance rs: Is there timeline for next HTML spec?

   lw: no

   jn: Noting a language nit on vector graphics -- which could be raster

   ab: Treated as object regardless

   RESOLUTION: Accept RS' text with some editorial changes so not specific to SVG image

   <richardschwerdtfeger> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-aria/2016Jan/0136.html

   mk: Still looking at the language -- "refer" seems ambiguous -- Phps ...
   ... We need Amelia's point to be more clearly made
   ... e.g. why all child elements of SVG ignored ??

   rs: Didn't note no keyboard because it's an inert object
   ... We can't get at the children because of how browsers treat the object

   mk: Aren't we saying all children of an object become a static string?

   rs: No, because other browsers don't expose -- so you get nothing

   mk: Can we say what the effect is? Seems so complex now.
   ... Why not simply say "an image is treated as a single object regardless whether it contains child elements"

   rs: That would work

   mk: What do we do with the inverse/ When you want children accessible?

   rs: Read further into the text ...

   mk: Not seeing the text ...

   <richardschwerdtfeger> When the <img> is used to refer to either a raster image (e.g. <img src=“foo.jpg”>) or a vector graphics image <img src=“foo.svg”> it is
   treated as a single entity with all descendant elements being presentational. This is regardless of whether the target graphic has descendant elements that would
   normally be exposed to assistive technologies, such as with an SVG document. Consequently, using a role=“presentation” or

   <richardschwerdtfeger> role=“none” on an <img> element is equivalent to using aria-hidden=“true”. If it is possible to make the descendant elements accessible the
   author SHOULD embed the document directly within the host document without it being referred to by <img>.

   rs: Suggest word smithing on telecon is not best use of our time ...

   mk: Can take to list

   <AmeliaBR> Two main points to cover: an img is a single entity, regardless of type of image file; if you want an image's contents to be accessible, embed using
   <object>, <iframe>, or inline SVG code

   rs: OK. I'll work this up.

Article Feed Proposal

   <MichielBijl> +1

   rs: Looks like we considered everything EXCEPT ARIA-Busy

   <richardschwerdtfeger> https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/master/aria/aria.html#aria-busy

   rs: Here's ARIA-1.0 version ...

   <richardschwerdtfeger> ARIA 1.0 version: https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/states_and_properties#aria-busy

   mk: 1.0 didn't make it clear what Busy was for
   ... What's the benefit for AT
   ... Changes intended to remedy that
   ... i.e. while Busy=true, aT may want to avoid making changes to the presentation
   ... Then do a single presentation when Busy clears
   ... We still need to work on what the good handshakes need to do
   ... Also want to make clear that Busy not just for Live regions

   rs: Are changes OK? For 1.1?

   RESOLUTION: Group agrees on MK's changes. Action is complete.

Final Notes

   rs: We need a role of "error"
   ... error messages need to be visible.
   ... I wanted to put this out for consideration
   ... Also, we need to finish up on extended destription
   ... These are discussions from the mapping spec

   mk: So error message couldn't reference a hidden element

   rs: yes

   clown: Not quite ... Relationship doesn't occur until unhidden
