Introductions 2. Problem outline: We'll explore what are common problems that have lead to an interest for WCAG compliance rules. The aim is to gain a common understanding of what the goals will be to work on. 3. Stakeholders: We'll look at who among the participants would be interested to commit resources to the initiative. Secondly we'll explore who else should be invited to participate. 4. Organization with W3C: What is the best way to organize this within the W3C. Should this work be done within a working group? If so, which one. What connections are there to other working groups? 5. How to frame the work process: We'll need to discuss the size of this initiative, making sure there can be a meaningful result within a reasonable amount of time. The key questions here are what must be developed, and in what time frame. 6. Final thoughts Regards Wilco Fiers, Judy Brewer, Shadi Abou-Zahra On Mon, Mar 14, 2016 at 2:34 PM, Wilco Fiers <wilco.fiers@deque.com<mailto:wilco.fiers@deque.com>> wrote: Dear All, We have been hearing increasing interest in development of a set of rules for normative accessibility conformance testing for WCAG 2.0, rising at least in part from differences in interpretations of conformance with WCAG 2.0, and resulting problems in inter-rater reliability. Since the Automated WCAG Monitoring Community Group ("Auto WCAG CG") has already been working on related issues, we would like to explore the possibility of developing a proposal in the Auto WCAG CG for Recommendation Track work on a set of rules for normative accessibility conformance testing, to be developed within a W3C Working Group once better defined. Depending on people's interest, exploratory work within the Auto WCAG CG could include: - reviewing suitability for normative accessibility conformance testing of a variety of rule sets that have been offered to W3C/WAI for further development; - combining different rule sets within a framework that would focus first on automated testing, but be expandable later to semi-automated and manual tests, and to potential normative extensions and/or future versions of WCAG; - incubating an initial draft specification, possibly to include a normative core and informative test procedures; - developing a proposal for a W3C Working Group, to include: * a clear problem statement; * explicit success criteria; * royalty-free licensing commitments; * a list of interested parties. Meeting time and logistics: - The first meeting would occur this Thursday, March 17, at 16:00 - 17:30 CET (the same time slot as the usual Auto WCAG CG meeting), with likely meetings to follow at two-week intervals. - Because of the daylight savings time change in the US and Canada over the past weekend, please note the time zone correspondences for the meeting this week: <http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20160317T16&p1=195&ah=1&am=30<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.timeanddate.com_worldclock_fixedtime.html-3Fiso-3D20160317T16-26p1-3D195-26ah-3D1-26am-3D30&d=BQMFaQ&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=REZD8fc2AwufInstfW3L5jSLVS8bjZtAodDOhat7yAI&m=hkMtX-d4Ft0lfG8UcMzdUqg3fKBju5LuULK24CAlCkY&s=lY5vYIaWnehaxBuh7_JShZY4LtjixtEPmLW2MOMZs4w&e=>> - Depending on expressions of interest, we may adjust the meeting time for future meetings. - Teleconference details to be confirmed based on the number of expressions of interest.
