Meeting minutes

   <ChrisLoiselle> Unable to scribe.

   sl: Looks for update info

  Update on May heartbeat draft

   Chuck_: Some valid concerns were raised and we've been working those issues out

   Chuck_: All -1 votes have changed to +1 and we are good as of the moment

   jeanne: Questions?

   [crickets]

  Commenting on scripts for EO videos

   jeanne: Recalls was discussed briefly last week ...

   jeanne: This is a series of short videos from E&O about specific SC criteria, but are writing them in a way that will work for both 2.x and 3

   <Lauriat> Survey link, I think I found it: https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/1/WCAGvideos_batch2thorough/

   jeanne: Comments requested on any script of particular interest

   jeanne: It'

   It's not necessary to comment on all scripts

   . You can pick and choose!

   . Survey closes 7 June, I believe

   <ChrisLoiselle> due June 7th. Per Brent's email.

  Moving to subgroup over W3C calendar app

   jeanne: Apologies for overload from the calendar invite

   jeanne: Was my error with the new system

   jeanne: Proposing to move all subgroup meetings to this calendar

   jeanne: Allows subgroup leaders to add and delete participants

   jeanne: Have some subgroups set up, but not all

   jeanne: If I'm not regularly in your subgroup, please email me with data!

   Chuck_: Curious about user error?

   Chuck_: Is it very easy to get confused? Or is it just a learning issue?

   jeanne: Believe it will be easy and convenient once we learn to use it

   jeanne: I misinterpreted a field definition

   jeanne: i.e."End Field" is meeting end, not something else

   jeanne: But once meeting flagged out of draft, it's forwarded to the list

   jeanne: Don't set it to 'confirm' until you know you've got it right!

   jeanne: Requesting patience with newbie error!

   <Chuck_> Thank you for doing the recon for us

   Lauriat: Sounds useful!

  Meeting schedule discussion

   jeanne: Notes Errors guideline didn't fair as well as hoped on AGWG call

   jeanne: Consequently, following discussion, we're going to try and get AGWG info about upcoming decision points earlier

   jeanne: So, trying to figure out what various subgroups want in August draft so it can be forwarded to AGWG well before we're trying to publish

   <Chuck_> +1 to strategy

   jeanne: Does also mean we'll be meeting with AGWG weekly, at least through June, and probably through July

   jeanne: Is that OK? Any objections?

   jeanne: Do we also need to have Silver on Tuesday in addition?

   jeanne: Most interested in hearing from Makoto, so seems he's adjusted

   <JF> +1 shawn

   Lauriat: Whatever we discuss can also be sent out

   sarahhorton: Notes Errors presented to this group multiple times, and also to AGWG some weeks ago, ...

   sarahhorton: Absolutely believe in getting concepts out early

   sarahhorton: Not sure what will be enough given the experience this week

   sarahhorton: How do we get them invested in successful outcomes

   Chuck_: Just brainstorming ...

   Chuck_: Individuals on both groups have expressed interested in migrating content

   Chuck_: Hoping more participants will be more familiarity and investment

   Chuck_: Additionally, believe Jeanne is formulating a proposal to AGWG based on a long standing AGWG process

   Chuck_: So that may help

   <Zakim> Lauriat, you wanted to note the regularity on publishing, in hopes of reducing fears of missing August (or a particular draft) so we can also get used to iterating on the work as helpful

   Lauriat: Believe those will help ...

   Lauriat: Hopefully publishing regularly will also help

   Lauriat: So, if some content piece misses a particular heartbeat, the next one will be soon, and therefore the opportunity to get it in sooner, not later

   Lauriat: Heartbeats should also give greater ease about including content, because it will be clearer all drafts can be changed

   Lauriat: Recalls also the open question about changing Friday Silver telecon time? Or adding back the Tuesday Silver call?

   Lauriat: Thoughts?

   Chuck_: I like reduced meetings, but have continued to join even the cancelled Tuesday call just in case

   Chuck_: Just incase someone shows up with something to discuss

   sajkaj: Like a Clubhouse room! :)

   [group rifs on Clubhouse]

   <Lauriat> +1 to that idea

   <Lauriat> (the meetings, not the clubhouse naming)

   jeanne: Hearing no objections ...

   jeanne: Tuesday call not deleted, but not formally expected at least through June and July

   jeanne: Friday call will continue

   jeanne: Please check public-silver@w3.org for AGWG agenda and WBS survey! It's important to the process

   Lauriat: Suggest a quick email followup on our list

   Lauriat: Makes it clear and provides opportunity for any others to comment

  Plan for August heartbeat draft

   <KimD> +1 to Tuesday flexibility

   <jeanne> o Conformance Options wants a proposal on 3rd party content

   <jeanne> o probably more from Errors

   <jeanne> o Structured Content wants new material but need more participation

   <jeanne> o Accessibility for Children Community Group has restarted and

   <jeanne> will be working on user needs and identifying research gaps.

   <jeanne> This probably will not be part of the August heartbeat but is

   <jeanne> useful to get started.

   jeanne: Notes discussion last week ...

   jeanne: Conformance Options will have Third Party Content proposal

   jeanne: Errors expects to have more content ready

   jeanne: Accessibility for Children has restarted and will be working--but not August

   jeanne: Asks about Visual Contrast??

   ChrisLoiselle: Internal discussions for particular PRs, at the moment no additional

   ChrisLoiselle: Can't yet say for August

   jeanne: So the PRs are the key?

   ChrisLoiselle: Yes

   jeanne: So, we'll need to schedule AGWG time for that

   SuzanneTaylor: XR subgroup can try to have 2 methods for caption timing

   SuzanneTaylor: We can try to go through the process, currently revising the drafts to get more feedback

   jeanne: Any timeline?

   SuzanneTaylor: Not sure

   SuzanneTaylor: Trying to get consensus from group

   SuzanneTaylor: probably mid July

   jeanne: that would work

   jeanne: Goal is to have everything introduced and perhaps through the process by end July

   <Chuck_> Janina: Question on contrast. CSS flagged something for us. Is there something we can pass on to CSS?

   <Chuck_> Chris: From point of conversing with W3C, there's been discussions between the need to bridge between the groups informally and would like to do that.

   <Chuck_> Chris: I haven't spoken to anybody specifically on that topic.

   <Chuck_> Janina: Let me know if there's a best write-up I can point CSS towards. I'll make them aware. I think they will be excited to see it.

   <Chuck_> Chris: Any email or thread please forward to me.

   <Chuck_> Janina: But nothing in the form of draft yet?

   <Chuck_> Chris: No, not yet.

   Lauriat: Other questions on heartbeat?

   jeanne: Other groups not yet reported? COGA input?

   Jan_: Just had a kickoff meeting to start work on help and links back to Content Usable

   jan Don't know whether it will be ready for August

   Jan_: Can touch base

   jeanne: Glad to hear it's started

   Rain: Exactly, but also another subgroup looking at Clear Words

   jeanne: Would be most helpful, thanks

   <Fazio> John Rochford EA Draffan are very active on clear words

   Jan_: That's our only new guideline which isn't a migration from 2.x so far

   <Fazio> we just discussed it yesterday

   Fazio: Maturity Model -- will be presenting to AGWG soon, and will be meeting next Friday to preview --

   jeanne: Would you like to present next Friday here?

   Fazio: Possibly

   Fazio: Will run it by the group

   jeanne: There's time next week

   Fazio: Will advise

   jeanne: Please keep Shawn and me in the loop; and please advise when ready to present

   jeanne: Usually need a few weeks warning to get calendered onto AGWG agenda

   Lauriat: I will update via email on list re upcoming meetings schedule

   Lauriat: Bye to all!
