What should be included in new Canvas 2D LCWD [17]Canvas 2d new Last Call [17] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2013Sep/0056.html RS: Draw system focus ring is set. still working on draw custom focus ring. good progress, chrome still needs to address high contrast. question is what is the best way to move forward with this functionality ...proposed to use hit testing, but there is no progress on that. ...draw the focus ring and report location to AT. If that doesn't happen, the API returns true, telling the author that they should draw this based on location. ...originally asked for a separate method that reported the location. hixie didn't like it because he wanted it to provide value to the author ...we have everything implemented except for when the system is in high contrast mode, the author doesn't have access to that information. IE will go to a high contrast focus ring. In Chrome, to implement High Contrast mode, they have a plugin that configures the browser for high contrast mode. JB: did we exhaust all efforts to get that 2nd implementation RS: no, not yet. we're taking to Mozilla ... what I do mind losing from the spec is Path (hit testing) ...last year there was talk of an alternative method, but no progress has been made. ...we have to make sure this gets done in the next version of canvas. ...if we lost custom focus ring, we still could provide a location for drawing the focus ring. the author won't be able to do anything special (a fancy focus ring) JB: sounds like you still have questions about why the replacement for Path with Shape never happened. ...should there be a phone call with all parties? JS: timing is not good with RS going on vacation for much of Oct. RS: without hit testing, there are going to be problems on mobile devices because there is no location information for canvas objects ...there are additional challenges on mobile without keyboard navigation. ...shape capability will solve that. ...I'm concerned that we don't have any traction on shape JS: we want to formally ask the WG to calendar this new Last Call for Canvas. Should ask for an extension of its deadline through november RS: why is there a rush to get this out when HTML5 is not due to get out until the end of next year. JS: it was scheduled to be moving ahead as an extension spec RS: its dependent on a critical piece of the HTML5 spec. there needs to be a 1-1 mapping of canvas functionality to fallback content. ...they should be working on removing Path from that spec since nobody is implementing it at this point. ST: if we don't get this in, I'm sure mobile OS developers will probably figure out a workaround, but there is no way any such solution will address the needs of users with disabilities that are not affected by lack of keyboard nav, like users with learning disabilities, like people with learning disabilities Alt Edits Review [18]WCAG WG WBS Survey results on category/class info for alt [18] https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/imageadvice/results MS: haven't heard back from WCAG WG but their survey is done, 9 responses. Should hear a response after their next meeting. JS: stevef will probably want any suggested turned into bugs Subteam Reports: Bug Triage; AAPI Mapping; Media; MS: Bug triage, chaals would like us to track recent accesskey bug re translatability JS: nothing yet on media, but we intend to get that going again. HTML 5.1 Objectives -- Open Discussion [19]http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/HTML51 wiki page to start tracking html5.1 priorities [19] http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/HTML51 MS: we've talked about taking a closer look at a tighter integration with the emotion markup spec, support for haptic output, ST: should start a requirements study/doc for gaming DM: WCAG has been concerned with support for cognitive disabilities,so perhaps some good ideas will come from that work JS: talking about calendar data pickers revealed some shortcomings in general form controls, so suggest we take a closer look at that area of the spec JB: are there specific features, related to a11y support that are missing in HTML ...the ability to navigate better through layers/levels and to be able to escape from them and may be missing from html5 Summary of Action Items [NEW] ACTION: to MarkS to track access key bug [recorded in [20]http://www.w3.org/2013/09/26-html-a11y-minutes.html#action0 1] [End of minutes] __________________________________________________________ Minutes formatted by David Booth's [21]scribe.perl version 1.138 ([22]CVS log) $Date: 2013-09-26 18:06:18 $ [21] http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/~checkout~/2002/scribe/scribedoc.htm [22] http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2002/scribe/
