I agree with Detlev and Makoto about separating SC 2.5.3 from 1.1.1. My understanding of the rational for merging 1.4.5 into 1.1.1, is that 1.1.1 contains a few instances that dictate what the text alternative must be (e.g., null alt, alt==name) but not a complete list. Having the alt attribute value be the words from an image of text is something that could have been explicitly included in 1.1.1. This gets at what I was trying to say on the call yesterday, that 1.1.1 divides its use cases into "textual equivalent" and "descriptive identification". I think the Silver version of 1.1.1 might group null alt, alt==name, and alt==words-from-an-image-of-text all as examples of textual equivalents. -- Top posted for my convenience. -----Original Message----- From: Detlev Fischer <detlev.fischer@testkreis.de> Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2019 1:59 AM To: Makoto Ueki <makoto.ueki@gmail.com> Cc: Silver Task Force <public-silver@w3.org> Subject: Re: About SC 1.1.1 in the Migration Map I think 2.5.3 Label in Name covers a very distinct aspect (matching visible label to accName) that should be kept separate from 2.4.6 where the point is to check whether label /heading texts are appropriate / descriptive of content or function - a semantic, not programmatic match. So I would recommend *not* to merge these two.
