Transcript Support Update -- John, Chaals, Cynthia


JS: a few issues around transcript

looking for minutes

JF: Clarification around minutes: the TF group on Wednesday didn't do a good job minuting the breakout (need to look for URL), however the meeting with the Media TF were minuted

JS: what are next steps with Transcript?

<paulc> Transcript Wiki:  <https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Full_Transcript> https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Full_Transcript

<paulc> Minutes for F2F discussion on Transcript Accessibility:  <http://www.w3.org/2015/04/15-html-media-minutes.html#item11> http://www.w3.org/2015/04/15-html-media-minutes.html#item11

<paulc> I want the TF to review Ted's ISSUE-194 review "Possible methods for associating transcripts with media elements":  <http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ISSUE-194/Research> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ISSUE-194/Research

JF: ONce the wiki pages are cleaned up, they will be shared more widely.

PC: Need to go back and review Ted O'Connors comments from the past

JS: Agree to be mindful of past arguments, but not sure if it's the same viewpoints today as in the past

PC: Just asking to remember the history

<ShaneM> so call it bagel

+1 to Shane

<paulc> Transcript proposal:  <https://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ISSUE-194/TranscriptElement> https://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ISSUE-194/TranscriptElement

<paulc> That is the proposal that the A11Y TF ad hoc meeting discussed and for which more work is needed.

JF: Large discussion around the Transcript issue - focused on the two links provided.


Additional agenda?


JS: anything not on the agenda?


CfC Updates -- Janina, Chaals, Paul

<janina>  <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2015Apr/0063.html> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2015Apr/0063.html


Alt Doc Update -- Shane, Liam


JS: believe we are waiting on PF consensus, after which there will be approval from both sides and we should be able to close

PC: CfC for the HTML Working group was delayed (gremlins in the system) - going out now

JS: so that will make it roughly a week out


Canvas 2D Level 1 Progress -- Rich, Janina, Paul


JS: Paul was looking for a new candidate editor?

PC: Scribe was incorrect - action is to communicate with current editors to see if one of them could produce a candidate last call draft

<paulc> Paul's request for a revised LC draft of Canvas2D Level 1:  <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-canvas-api/2015AprJun/0001.html> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-canvas-api/2015AprJun/0001.html

that went out Apr. 14th

<paulc> No response so far.

PC: so far, no response. will continue to pursue this

JS: will likely want to review once that happens

PC: no changes since December, so you should be able to review now

JS: Hit Region support is in now?

PC: email points to the 2 bugs solved in Dec. - one being the bug rick resolved to fix (missing text)
... if any other changes required, speak up now. For those interested in the 2 new features, start review now

RS: will look at it over the next week

PC: just respond to the email message

RS: just want to look at wording things

PC: If required, file more bugs - make sure bugs have proposed changes (text changes)
... will contiinue to work on the editors issues

RC: which version are we looking at> current LC, or an editors version?

PC: current editors draft
