Re: Moving Name Computation to a separate specification document

I totally agree. The reason for pulling out was to handle name computation
that included host language features for both HTML and SVG. So I think it
should be something on the order of:

Core Accessible Name and Description Computation Module. This would cover
HTML and SVG. Also, given the fact that the SVG is becoming more aligned
with SVG this is more appropriate.

Core,
HTML
SVG
Core Accessible Name and Description Computation Module

I don't think the general concept of Name Computation is specifically tied
to ARIA, so I wouldn't name the document "ARIA Names"… The fact that it
references ARIA attributes like aria-label and aria-labelledby should be
sufficient to make it obvious that it's within the PF's charter.

If it hasn't been suggested already, what about "Accessible Name
Computation"?

       We are expected to be chartered to do "WAI-ARIA...1.1" and
       "WAI-ARIA...1.1 Implementation Guides". If we split a document out
       of that, I think it's pretty clear it still falls under those
       deliverables. So we should be good. We might need to be careful
       about how we title the document so it's clear it's part of the ARIA
       suite.

             Hi, Rich: Responding to your question as per the Subject
             above ... I am confident we are well within our authority to
             break name computation, or any particular aspect of the ARIA
             suite as circumstances require. Michael can elaborate or
             correct, if needed. Also, it's arguably not too late even to
             add such a document to our list of deliverables inasmuch as
             our recharter is not yet approved, though I don't know where
             that is exactly, in the authorization process. At the moment
             we're still operating under an extension of our 3-year old
             plus charter. hth Janina
