As the number of sub-groups of PF have grown, we've had more and more
collisions of meetings and minutes. To help avoid this, I'd like to
start having each task force use a separate IRC channel. That way the
minutes of different groups on the same day would be less likely to be
in the same channel and overlap each other. Also the URI would be a bit
more clear about the topic of the meeting.
I've talked with Janina and Rich and they've agreed we can move the
Monday ARIA call to #aria instead of #pf. Everything else about those
calls would work the same. So please look for us there next week.
Rich thought it would be helpful for me to send a list of the IRC
channels currently used by PF, to help people know where to look for
what. In alphabetical order by channel name, these are:
* *#aapi* - The WAI-ARIA User Agent Implementation Task Force, which
is the group that does the main work on the ARIA User Agent
Implementation Guide, meeting Tuesday afternoons Boston time;
* *#aria* - the new channel for the WAI-ARIA task force that does main
development of ARIA, meeting Monday mornings Boston time;
* *#coga* - the Cognitive and Learning Disabilities Accessibility Task
Force, operated jointly with the Web Content Accessibility
Guidelines WG but mostly under PF supervision so far, meeting time
not set yet;
* *#html-techs-tf* - the HTML and ARIA Techniques Task Force, operated
jointly with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines WG and mostly
under their supervision, but technically part of PF as well, meeting
Thursday afternoons Boston time;
* *#html-a11y* - the main channel for the HTML Accessibility Task
Force, operated jointly with the HTML WG, meeting Thursday mornings
Boston time. This group has sub-groups; my listing may be out of
date but include, I think:
o *#a11y-bugs* - Bug Triage
o *#canvas* - Canvas
o *#html-aapi* - the HTML to Accessibility API Mapping group
o *#media* - Media, the group that developed Media Accessibility
User Requirements that is a PF deliverable
o *#text* - Text alternatives
* *#pf* - the main Protocols and Formats Working Group, meeting
Wednesdays at noon Boston time.
