Thanks for the update, Steve. I believe with this information the A11Y TF can now decide if they are willing to declare the work on the Alt Guidance specification [1] to be done and if they agree that there is no need to do further work on the Working Draft. If the TF agrees then I recommend that the TF ask the WG to discontinue work on the WD by publishing the content as a WG Note with an appropriate SOTD to indicate how the problems identified in the original WD were dealt with. I believe that completion of this work and its integration of the changes into HTML 5.0 will result in the successful execution of the following item from 'plan 2014' [2]: Responsibility for the HTML5: Techniques for providing useful text alternatives<http://dev.w3.org/html5/alt-techniques/> document will remain in the HTML WG. The A11y TF and the editor of the alt-techniques document are encouraged to work directly with the editors of the HTML5 document to reduce identified differences<http://www.davidmacd.com/WCAG/WAI/buggy.html>, filing new bug reports as appropriate. We will revisit the responsibility of the document after the differences have been resolved to the extent possible. /paulc [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/html-alt-techniques/ [2] http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/html5-2014-plan.html#other-changes Paul Cotton, Microsoft Canada 17 Eleanor Drive, Ottawa, Ontario K2E 6A3 Tel: (425) 705-9596 Fax: (425) 936-7329 From: Steve Faulkner [mailto:faulkner.steve@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2014 12:20 PM To: Paul Cotton; Robin Berjon Cc: Janina Sajka; Charles McCathie Nevile (chaals@yandex-team.ru); public-html-a11y@w3.org; Sam Ruby (rubys@intertwingly.net) Subject: Re: ACTION-228 - Produce a list of the bugs relating to the alt guidance changes [on Steve Faulkner - due 2014-02-06] There is only ONE CR bug resolved fixed that needs to be ported back: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=23059 related commits: https://github.com/w3c/html/commit/5a8abca8892b7150faeb6b627303446b248f14e1 https://github.com/w3c/html/commit/19d6ee4251dd09bf1318bc7feced23d6a23ba5fe https://github.com/w3c/html/commit/3167ea4c58a55715b12ba1440d70e9b02033fa60 there is one editorial issue that does not have a bug - awaiting taskforce to file, provide info. list of bugs that have were thought to be in 5.1 only but have been ported back to CR a) Bug 9215<https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=9215> - Provide a Webcam example that is in accord with WCAG 2 or Defer to "HTML5: Techniques for providing useful text alternatives" in 5.0 http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/embedded-content-0.html#webcam-images b) Bug 9216<https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=9216> - Provide a CAPTCHA example that is in accord with WCAG 2 or Defer to "HTML5: Techniques for providing useful text alternatives" in 5.0 http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/embedded-content-0.html#captcha-images c) Bug 22161<https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=22161> - paragraph contains inaccuracies in 5.0 http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/embedded-content-0.html#general-guidelines d) Bug 22375<https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=22375> - Images of text where there is also an image in 5.0 http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/embedded-content-0.html#a-group-of-images-that-form-a-single-larger-picture-with-no-links e) Bug 22438<https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=22438> - Alt text for an image to a home page of a web site in 5.0 http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/embedded-content-0.html#a-link-or-button-containing-nothing-but-an-image f) Bug 22774<https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=22774> - 4.8.1.1.3 Image alts and explanations in 5.0 http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/embedded-content-0.html#alt g) Bug 20404<https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=20404> - more non conforming uses of title attribute in example code in 5.0 http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/embedded-content-0.html#when-a-text-alternative-is-not-available-at-the-time-of-publication -- Regards SteveF HTML 5.1<http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/> On 26 March 2014 14:56, Paul Cotton <Paul.Cotton@microsoft.com<mailto:Paul.Cotton@microsoft.com>> wrote: >From the 13 March TF minutes: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2014Mar/0055.html > Alt Guidance & Next Steps > JS: Steve will be giving us an update at CSUN.
