Update from David Swallow

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Set up longer diary studies with five
    web developers (over two weeks).

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Whenever they use WCAG, they create a
    new diary entry.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Looking to get some feedback on the
    questions, sent via email earlier.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: The survey includes the core set of
    questions, and then the diary entries will follow as longer
    entries.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Looking to streamline the entries,
    which may get a bit repetitive.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Last, a phone interview at the end, put
    into a Survey Monkey survey to review and get feedback.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Regarding compensation, Sarah and I
    think $50 would be appropriate.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: How many gift cards do we need?

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: Pounds or dollars or?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Interestingly, it can get difficult
    with international participants, depending on the region.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: Where are the participants from?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: We don't have that, yet. We had
    discussed using the stakeholders for that.

    <Lauriat> Sarah: Quick question about the diary entry survey.
    Every time I use WCAG I would fill this out, or at the end of
    the day?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Ideally every time.

    <Lauriat> Sarah: Would it work to do something like a log for
    when you use it and then an end-of-day reflection?

    <Lauriat> Sarah: I really like the questions you have in here.
    Maybe having a couple of the questions move to an
    end-of-the-day reflection?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Yeah, that makes sense.

    <Lauriat> Sarah: I think given that this is a pilot diary
    study, keeping this constrained is good in order to focus.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Also good to know if they consult a
    third party, rather than WCAG directly. Let's try this for the
    pilot.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: Developers only for this?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Yes. The questions aren't really
    developer-specific, but interested mostly in developers for
    this.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: This seems like it will target accessibility
    web developers, given the need for them to use WCAG enough for
    the study.

    <Lauriat> Jennison: Looking at targeting accessibility
    specialists in particular or others?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: I'd like to get more of a beginner
    outlook as well, good to get a range.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Ideally a spread.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: Ideally two intermediate and two beginner and
    one somewhere in the middle.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: What about international?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Only five participants does limit
    things a bit, but ideally yes.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: We could probably get someone from Japan and
    Korea as well.

    <Lauriat> Jennison: We'll just need to make sure that we can
    provide something for each geography that they can use.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: I can reach out to some people to find
    someone more beginner.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: Jennison, you can probably find someone as
    well, on the beginner side, in the US.

    <Lauriat> Jennison: When do you need folks by?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Nothing specific, really. Let's say
    this month.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: For a period of two weeks for
    participation.

    <Lauriat> Jennison: Will we have to translate, or make sure
    that participants know enough English?

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: Yeah, let's stick with English. Just reading
    and writing, really.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: I had intended the interview to happen
    over the phone, but it could happen via email, really.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: So an initial survey, then a two-week study,
    and then a final interview.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: And at least a $50 gift card.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Looking to have realistic participation
    - I don't want to artificially create situations where they
    need to use WCAG.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: What about situations where people will use
    different versions of WCAG?

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: What are the specific goals and questions of
    the study?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Mainly consulting the resource, WCAG
    2.0. [Other resources] could be interesting, I agree. For this
    pilot, let's stick to the resource itself.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: An official translation should be fine,
    though.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Right.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: What else do you need from us?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: That covers it, really.

    <Lauriat> Jennison: We can give you more feedback via email as
    well.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: Would you mind reading the questions? Having
    trouble reading them from here.

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Quite a few of them, really.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: Just a note, because you sent the links to
    the mailing list, those links are all now public. Is that okay?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: Better to send a document with the
    questions?

    <Lauriat> DavidSwallow: I'll chat with Sarah and get this
    shared.

    <Lauriat> Jeanne: I made a small amount of progress on the
    budget, though not enough to really have a look at today.
