Re: [A11Y] Agenda of Accessibility TF meeting (Publishing CG): Thu, Jan 26, at 15 UTC

I am going to try to attend the meeting tomorrow, but will be commuting so may not be able to talk. Going to provide my thoughts here just in case:

  *   In which category do we place the taggedPDF metadata?
     *   This feels like book features to me over bibliographic data.
  *   Is accessModeSufficient = visual relevant to ebooks? All ebooks can be accessed visually, isn't it? Perhaps it is significant for audiobooks, but then it would be clearly exposed that it is an audiobook.
     *   Agreed.
  *   Is the highContrastDisplay metadata related to the publication or the reading device?
     *   I believe this is a reading device/system feature, or even an operating system feature depending on the platform.
  *   Does it make sense to group "Use of color" metadata in "Reading Mode: Visual Adjustments" or is it better to move it?
  *   Perhaps we can merge "Reading Mode: Audio" with "Reading Mode: Non visual", or at least bring it back as a sub-category
     *   I think I’m agreed on this as well, non-visual only has two options: audio and tactile, makes sense to have them as sub categories to the non-visual main category
  *   Is the bookmarks feature related to the publication or the reading device? Is this related to PDFs?
     *   Also related to the reading device (though more broadly, the reading platform). PDF bookmarking is also platform-specific.
  *   In what situations does the metadata accessibilityFeature = none make sense? Do we group it in Conformance?
     *   Would this field maybe need to be dependent on others? If I say the content is accessible, then say accessibilityFeature: none, that seems invalid, but it maybe also shouldn’t map directly to inaccessible either. Eager to see the discussion on this one.
Cheers,
Wendy

[EXTERNAL] This message comes from an external organization.
Aloha Accessibility Task Force,
following today editors' call on the UX guide for accessibility metadata document, we have made some revisions to the groupings proposed in the shared spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rUCXkVE0bFeXf0hJvyPkKkIBeBHIGPYUFWKrQqLJHl8/edit?usp=sharing). While the changes are mostly minor shifts, we did have some questions that came up during the call that we would like to discuss with you in more detail.

You can find these questions in column B of the shared file, and I have also included them below for your convenience:

  *   In which category do we place the taggedPDF metadata?
  *   Is accessModeSufficient = visual relevant to ebooks? All ebooks can be accessed visually, isn't it? Perhaps it is significant for audiobooks, but then it would be clearly exposed that it is an audiobook.
  *   Is the highContrastDisplay metadata related to the publication or the reading device?
  *   Does it make sense to group "Use of color" metadata in "Reading Mode: Visual Adjustments" or is it better to move it?
  *   Perhaps we can merge "Reading Mode: Audio" with "Reading Mode: Non visual", or at least bring it back as a sub-category
  *   Is the bookmarks feature related to the publication or the reading device? Is this related to PDFs?
  *   In what situations does the metadata accessibilityFeature = none make sense? Do we group it in Conformance?

We would like to discuss these questions in tomorrow's call and any other concerns you may have. Your expertise is vital in ensuring that we don't miss any important accessibility metadata use cases.

Please note that the group names are just a proposal and we are open to suggestions for better names, especially for the Reading Mode category. If you have any ideas, please feel free to share them with us.

Looking forward to speaking with you soon.

Gregorio
