Good Monday, All! We continue to tighten our argument in CAPTCHA. Since last week's RQTF call. Regretably, I believe there's still more to do on this sisyphian document. As ever the Editor's Draft is here: https://w3c.github.io/apa/captcha/ ***The Good News*** * More is said about cognitive and learning disabilities. See the * first paragraph at https://w3c.github.io/apa/captcha/#the-accessibility-challenge: NOTE: There's still time to say more! * Sec. 3 has been reorganized, and Secs. 4 and 5 * incorporated. After all, they're all multi-party * approaches. It was illogical to make them separate. * The verbs used discussing reCAPTCHA have been changed * yet again, this time toward using more present * progressive constructs. Two factors drove this: a.) I've * found audio reCAPTCHAs still being available; b.) I've * found the Google reCAPTCHA FAQ announcing that V. 2 is * not going away. That document is now hyperlinked, and * the paragraph noting that the content provider decides * on fallback under V. 3 edited accordingly. * The potential benefits of Turing Tokens now have their own * separate section here: https://w3c.github.io/apa/captcha/#why-not-federated-turing-tokens * The list items in our Conclusion section are rewritten somewhat * and now appear as an ordered list. ***The Bad News*** Our discussion of Federated Identity Systems and of Single * Sign-On Systems now appears quite inadequate to me, especially * in the light of what we've discovered and written about Turing * Tokens. I'm mulling two potential solutions: 1.) Remove Federated Identity and Single Sign-On. They don't really add anything that describes their role in Turing testing. 2.) Combine them into a single section, because the industry is itself fairly confused about a bright line between them. Then, blast them for ignoring Turing testing entirely as though authenticating logins was the only requirement. I'm of two minds on the above as I write this. I'm eager to hear opinions.
