Lost of people at Vision Australia Foundation use Braille output devices (e.g. refreshable Braille displays), but I'm not sure what a Braille input device is. Can someone please advise? I don't consider the chord keyboards that comes with devices such a Braille-note, to be Braille input, but maybe that is what they mean? This is referred to in the Device Independence definition. Thanks, Andrew -----Original Message----- From: public-wai-eo-lexicon-request@w3.org [mailto:public-wai-eo-lexicon-request@w3.org]On Behalf Of Henk Snetselaar Sent: Sunday, 16 January 2005 8:44 AM To: public-wai-eo-lexicon@w3.org Subject: Quick action Hi all, Due to last EOWG call here some proposals and requests. With the input of last EOWG call and additional suggestions of people like Andrew and Pasquale, I altered some of the descriptions of our provisional results presented to EOWG the 12th of January. You will find a next LexiconOverview version 12 as attachment. See especially the worksheet titled 'Lex-ATAG'. In this sheet you will find in column A our proposal of 12 January, in column B the altered descriptions since 14 January and in column C some notes about the changes I made. Please read the altered descriptions and reply to the list whether you agree or not no later than Monday 17 January. Below follows an introduction for the ATAG people when sending our description proposals. Please read, consider and comment also about this intro. ++++++++++++++++ The EOWG has initiated a 'Lexicon Task Force' that is setting up a 'Beginners Lexicon' of WAI terms. This should become a concise lexicon with descriptions in clear and plain language. The purpose of setting up this beginners lexicon is to aid translators by describing the meaning of (technical) terms with a 'WAI contextual meaning'. See list below for document addresses concerning the Lexicon work. While selecting the entries for this lexicon we collected the entries that are also part of the ATAG 2.0 Glossary draft. For some of the ATAG 2.0 glossary entries we will propose an alternative description.
