Re: [Errors] Working Session Wednesday 18 August 2021

Hi, Jake. Yes, that’s correct. We haven’t yet done much work building out Contingencies. Go ahead and add a sheet for that if you’d like!

Best,
Sarah

Noted that methods should have “or” relationship rather than “and” relationship, and that Input instructions provided outcome methods have “and” relationship and may need to be restructured into separate outcomes. Questioned long list of functional categories. Questioned whether requirements from other guidelines (e.g., clear words) should be included.

> Discussed value of simplified outline showing structure of errors guidelines.
> Discussed next steps, move forward with updating content in editor’s draft in response to survey and then pause development of new content. Jake will take the error group’s user needs inventory and map it to new framework from the functional needs group. From there we can revisit the structure and work to solidify the approach and content.

> Respond to survey results with new PR (Sarah)
