Request for joint meeting at TPAC

Hello, Web Authentication:

The Accessible Platform Architectures (APA) Working Group requests a
joint meeting with you during the upcoming TPAC. Our Tuesday agenda
could most easily accomodate a meeting with you anytime in the
afternoon. We expect a number of ARIA Working Group participants would
also join this meeting.

There have been extensive conversations recently about accessibility
implications of various security and authentication approaches, [1]
especially in the ARIA-WG. Clearly, they will want to coordinate on any
ARIA based authentication features.  Further, our Cognitive and Learning
Disabilities Task Force is developing additional requirements on
authentication and security.

As your'rs is the larger room, I expect we would join you for this
conversation. Alternatively, it might be acceptable for a delegation
from your WG to join us for this conversation.

Some possible approaches that have come up in APA include:

*	Adding an Accessibility Implications Section to your Web
*	Authentication specification
*	Creating an Accessibility API for scoped credentials 
*	Note also the developing Issues List [1] below.
