    Various stakeholder groups are being assigned to each question.

    High Priority Research Questions: How well does the current
    content of W3C Accessibility Guidelines meet the accessibility
    needs of people with disabilities?

    scribe: What are the needs of people with disabilities who are
    under-served from a standards perspective?
    ... How well does the current conformance model for W3C
    Accessibility Guidelines serve accessibility for people with
    disabilities short-term and long-term?
    ... How flexible are the current web accessibility standards in
    supporting emerging consumer technology trends?

    Medium Priority Research Questions:

    scribe: How well does the current structure of W3C
    Accessibility Guidelines serve different stakeholder groups?
    ... How well do W3C Accessibility Guidelines support the
    creation of tools for evaluating accessibility?
    ... (also send to the Testing Task Force, and ask them if they
    can suggest followup or related survey questions).

    Low Priority Research Questions

    scribe: How well does the current structure of W3C
    Accessibility Guidelines support learning and remembering key
    principles of web accessibility?

    Shawn: Some of the questions we will want to ask on a more
    technical level for different technical stakeholders.
    Non-technical questions can be sent to different groups. More
    policy oriented questions can be sent to the groups that are
    policy oriented.

    Dave: I want to get started writing the questions, and then we
    can refine them and identify ones that would only be asked of
    different subsets. We can use branching logic to hide questions
    from the widest audience of people who wouldn't want to think
    about that question.
    ... I will take one research question and develop the list of
    survey questions so others can see how we might classify and
    refine the questions.
    ... Once we have a set a questions, we can figure out how to
    ask them in the most appropriate way.

    <scribe> ACTION: sloandr to draw up a list of survey questions
    for the research question "How well does the current
    conformance model for W3C Accessibility Guidelines serve
    accessibility for people with disabilities short-term and
    long-term?" [recorded in

    Jan: Michael Heron said he will make it a requirement of
    students in his course to do the diary survey.

    Jennison: I asked 4 people who were all too concerned about
    time.

    Jan: I had the same problem with developers I know. It is a
    problem in the industry that people are too busy.
