Agenda for April 17, 2015

I believe Rich and Léonie may be traveling and unable to attend. If so, I
would like to discuss wiki vis git and go over open actions for anyone
attending.

We have a couple of tasks outstanding relating to navigation, so it may be
time to put navigation aside for a few weeks until related tasks are
farther along.  I listed navigation related tasks below
Leone and Doug will look at chart navigation
Rich has a task to look at connectors
And Chaals will look at interaction with Jason and the testing crew

If I am missing a navigation or interaction related task - please let me
know.


Time of meeting is 9:00AM EST, 14:00 UTC, duration is 1 hour
Zakim Bridge +1.617.761.6200, conference 2742 ("ARIA"), IRC channel is

I have been looking at how style information is used in SVG and have been
thinking about accommodations for low vision and color blind users (and
possibly accommodations for users with cognitive issues) that involve
changing stroke widths, swapping colors and making text easier to read. We
have talked about semantically important parts of a graphic vs not
semantically important parts of a graphic and I was wondering what would be
an appropriate method of distinguishing between them. Use of a title has
been suggested as a gate for semantically important vs not semantically
important.  If we have time, I would like to discuss what kinds of things
would be reasonable gates/flags/identifiers to try out.
