ls: hope to set a schedule for goals

<BarryJohnson> *allenj - thanks

ls: reviews email
... user questions, applications, critical information, ict systems, etc.
... any comments

jr: like the broadness.
... when talking with folks, a large problem was communicating with loved
ones.

jf: under applications. web apps in general or a specific application?

<NeilMilliken> I think it could be either

jf: specific application or more broad?

ls: both, people get frustrated with both
... last week...looking at tasks, with user scenarios...want broad strokes.

janina: W3 is web technology. desktop may be out of scope. mobile apps may
be in scope (if web backend)

??: what about internet of things

janina: it is the web, ipv6

ls: create action, add examples to wiki

ls: review Gap TOC
... Section 3 (brainstorming) collect ideas - don't want to lose them
... are people comfortable with sections?

<JohnRochford> I am confortable with the sections

<NeilMilliken> Yes I am comfortable

ls: worked on these in China, they are open to change.
... now is good time to speak...

<NeilMilliken> II should be able o get some user scenarios up by end of
this week

ls: want reasonable about of time needed to complete an area

<NeilMilliken> I have less to put up than most :-)

<NeilMilliken> dyscalculia has less info

ls: perhaps 6 weeks

dr: don't know what is reasonable

ls: at least a draft
... want people to build a section and present to group
... so 6 weeks and a month later have a second draft

jr: sounds ok, getting started is important

nm: can use my stuff as an example

jf: +1, some of the ideas

<josephoconnor> Non-vocal encompasses a wide range of developmental and
situational etiologies, which do no always intersect with intellectual
disabilities. I'll have to narrow the focus to get anything done at all.

jf: next 6 weeks should not be a vacuum, get feedback through out the time
... gaps...write what you know, then we will fill in what's missing

ls: if you know something is missing add that also
... add agenda request for help for next week

jr: looked at orgs working on cog a11y. have a list, willing to post.

<JohnRochford> http://www.clearhelper.org/Resources/CWA/Promoters/

ls: add to wiki page also

<BarryJohnson> Yes. That soyunds good

<BarryJohnson> *sounds

<josephoconnor> 6 weeks is good for now.

<BarryJohnson> I think we need a target to start with.

resolution: 6 weeks timeline for completing Gap Analysis

<BarryJohnson> +1 to JF - Don't be afraid to start

<Michel> +Q

ls: if anyone is not doing a user group, or want to do other research (i.e.
executive function, specific technology, etc.)

michel: ADHD and executive function are closely related. though EF deficits
show up elsewhere

<Michel> -q

ls: michel do you want to take executive function and run with it.

michel: sure, I will do that

ls: anyone want to look at specifications

rs: specifications for which technologies?

ls: FLUID, emotion markup, etc

rs: will take specifications (FLUID etc)

<josephoconnor> I will be at CSUN.

<NeilMilliken> I wish I was attending

rs: CSUN will have COGA panel discussion

<Lisa_Seeman> I will be there

<NeilMilliken> send me details just in case I can

ja: I will be there

<BarryJohnson> If we could get an idea of when & where

ls: any comments?

rs: business needs, mobile? why we are addressing it now, rather than later
... want people interested. could be in the intro
... want to get it in peoples faces

<JohnRochford> I think it would be worthwhile to add mobile

jr: the world is going mobile

rs: could put after intro, in separate section (business and mobile)

ls: 2 sections or just 1

<JohnRochford> I just realized there is another John (JF) on the call, and
I have been answering questions directed to him. I apologize.

rs: mobile - mean different input methods, or something else.

<josephoconnor> focus on users

janina: what is difference between mobile and standard input...if no
difference don't call out. just add into issues

<josephoconnor> users not restricted to one environment

ls: will add business case after the intro. Business Case and urgency
... any other comments?

<josephoconnor> Voice output devices now generally have web access in
addition to email and IM.

<BarryJohnson> Thank you everyone

<josephoconnor> Going to Disneyland.
