<Lisa_Seeman> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-cognitive-a11y-tf/2014Feb/0032.html
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

<NeilMilliken> I am happy with the goals
<Lisa_Seeman> https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/cognitive-a11y-tf/wiki/Gap_Analysis
<JohnRochford> I too am pleased with the goals
<Lisa_Seeman> https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/cognitive-a11y-tf/wiki/Gap_Analysis
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...
SILENCE
Next steps and setting time
ls: setting schedules.
<Lisa_Seeman> https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/cognitive-a11y-tf/wiki/Gap_Analysis/userTemplate
<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

Table of content for roadmap
<josephoconnor> http://www.csun.edu/cod/conference/2014/sessions/index.php/public/presentations/view/260
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.
