------------------------------------------------------------------------

<Kathy> Kim - i am having network issues. I am trying to join the webex

<Kathy> I am still trying to connect to WebEx

<Kathy> is anyone else having problems?

<MelanieP> not here

<patrick_h_lauke> working for me (using app directly, rather than 
phoning in)

<Kim> Working for me, I phoned in

<patrick_h_lauke> early warning: will need to leave around 20 minutes to 
the hour to go pick up my little one i'm afraid

<Kathy> Is Kim on

<Kathy> Please start without me

<Kathy> I am trying to get this to work but WebEx will not connect

<marcjohlic> I was able to get in.. no issues here

<patrick_h_lauke> scribe: patrick_h_lauke

Kim: any questions on device sensors?

Melanie: updated based on last week's feedback, but need help with github

<scribe> scribe: Kim


      Device sensors

https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/mobile-a11y-tf/wiki/Device_Sensors_Understanding#Understanding_Device_Sensors

Melanie: issue – scaling to motion – two bullets to leave out in github 
– Kathy will move to get from wiki

<Kathy> 
https://rawgit.com/patrickhlauke/wcag21/concurrent-input-mechanisms/understanding/21/concurrent-input-mechanisms.html


      concurrent input mechanisms

https://rawgit.com/patrickhlauke/wcag21/concurrent-input-mechanisms/understanding/21/concurrent-input-mechanisms.html

Patrick: it would impact everybody the same way not necessarily folks 
with disabilities I'm kind of okay with that

Kathy: actually a lot of WCAG 2.0 impacts all users, but impacts people 
with disabilities more

Patrick: if we have good examples that would illustrate that
... will push to github

<patrick_h_lauke> (just say when you're done reading the proposed text)

<MelanieP> Web content does not restrict use of input modalities 
available on a platform except where the restriction is essential, 
required to ensure the security of the content, or respect user settings.

Kathy: I think we need to have something in there about security of the 
content or to respect user settings
... discussion about security was that if a certain input mechanism 
compromises the security aspect of what they're entering in you can 
block a particular input method – so if there's a security risk you 
don't need – if I have to enter it only using a keyboard for some 
security reason that's an exception

A speech input user has trouble using the mouse keyboard, so use in 
speech when possible, but when talking with a colleague intermittently 
switches speech off and uses the mouse.

Another example: A speech input user has trouble using the mouse and 
keyboard, so uses speech when possible, but when talking with a 
colleague intermittently switches speech off and uses the mouse.

Patrick: if someone relies on using a mouse or mouse like interface and 
can't use the touchscreen they'll be heavily impacted
... resources – I'm not sure what level we want to keep these

Kathy: we should keep those in there, including your article
... we need to have things published out there on these topics and 
there's not a whole lot out there. If anybody has an article for things 
on there that relate – we need these
... does anybody have anything else – I think this is good

Patrick: I'm assuming we don't have to have the techniques done

Kathy: correct – we don't need that right this moment. The next steps 
are that these are going to go to the other taskforces,they'll give 
feedback and then it goes to the working group. They can get other user 
examples or other nuances they can put into these


      Orientation

https://rawgit.com/w3c/wcag21/orientation/understanding/21/orientation.html

Marc: added examples where orientation is not locked

<marcjohlic> Orientation SC: Content is not locked to a specific display 
orientation, and functionality of the content is operable in all display 
orientations, except where display orientation is essential for use of 
the content.

Marc: put NA in resources

Kathy: could link to the original document we did about how this applies 
to mobile

Marc: using the word mobile all the time – this can apply to nonmobile too

<patrick_h_lauke> I suggest replacing "mobile application" with "web 
content"

Melanie: is this applicable outside of mobile apps – browsers don't care

Kathy: you can do CSS

Patrick: CSS device adaptation – no browser yet supports but you can say 
only lock the display to portrait or landscape. Also the cheap version 
of that is just check width and height of viewport and say please turn 
your device – don't display anything untiil you've turned the device. So 
it is applicable to web content as well
... not purely on mobile – also desktop depending on aspect ratio – it 
may trigger the same kind of problem
... another quick comment – YouTube videos I would generalize that, just 
say videos can be displayed

Kathy: example 3 title E reader app
... people will think of this as being an actual application – web app

Marc: mobile applications and web apps on first reference?

Melanie: can we say mobile and web-based applications?

Marc: I'll clean up the rest of the mobile applications references

<Kathy> https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/wiki/Accepted_WCAG_2.1_SC

Kathy: will put Kim's, Melanie's, Patrick's on and update document. and 
I'll email Lisa and Jim to tell them those are ready to review. We'll be 
working on techniques next time for the mobile stuff.

we didn't look at change of content – if you have comments on that let 
me know

Jake – mobile applications – technology agnostic we also have hybrid – 
we should have some kind of clear definition starting wiith ourselves

Jake: when we talk about native apps, hybrid version, also for this 
understanding – what Marc is working on. Definition would be useful

Kathy: we are working with the education and outreach group writing more 
for mobile, define things for mobile on the EO side. I can bring up your 
concern and make sure that we've got covered

Jake: for myself I talk about native specifically iOS and android. 
Hybrid some web content in the native. Web application web document with 
some functionality. It stays somewhere in the gray area for different people

Kathy: will touch base with the EO on that
