ITEM 1 Action items: 
https://www.w3.org/community/auto-wcag/wiki/Action_items

Wilco has started to add tests that are implemented in Quailjs as 
test-cases to the auto-wcag wiki. They should be ready for review next week.


ITEM 2: Review SC3-1-1-text 
https://www.w3.org/community/auto-wcag/wiki/SC3-1-1-text

The group discussed the option to add an automatic step to the test. The 
subject of automated step would be "all text without language changes". 
If the language determined for the text is L1, then the test case passes.

It is still open how the threshold for language guessing algorithm can 
be determined.

Hanno: There is an implementation in Quailjs.
Annika: This is also implemented in the eGovMon tool.
Wilco: Please send a pointer to algorithms.

Wilco suggested to add a help section for the user testing steps. (E.g. 
a reference to the definition of "primary language").


ITEM 3: Review SC3-1-1-html 
https://www.w3.org/community/auto-wcag/wiki/SC3-1-1-html

Birkir will provide input from screen reader test.
No further comments.


ITEM 4: Review SC3-1-2-lang 
https://www.w3.org/community/auto-wcag/wiki/SC3-1-2-lang

(Same as ITEM 3.)


ITEM 5: Review SC3-1-2-text 
https://www.w3.org/community/auto-wcag/wiki/SC3-1-2-text

John: Where does the sentence "A single word in another language does 
not have to be marked." come from?
Wilco: That is defined in WCAG.

John: The question in step 2 should be refined. "Are there any sentences 
or paragraph in another language?" or "Is the language L1 used exclusively?"

Wilco suggests to add help text.

Wilco: Can this test be separated into two tests?
Annika: No, better keep it in one test to avoid conditional relationship 
between tests.

ITEM 6 Final comments

Wilco: Please remember to fill in your availability in the meetings plan [1]
