1. Re-chartering update (Jeanne)

    <Jan> JS: We have submitted revisions put in last week...

    <Jan> JS: As far as I know they are moving on to the next
    step...being included in main WAI recharteing

    <Jan> JS: Next step is for it go to the W3management

    <Jan> JS: Will go to Advisory Committe (AC) around the 17th of
    May

2. Implementation report (Jan)

    JR: Just sent out a new version of the implementation report

    JR: The last few calls have been reviewing Adobe Dreamweaver
    and Adobe Acrobat 11
    ... previously, there had been a column for Adobe InDesign, but
    we decided to change to Acrobat 11 because it meets more of
    ATAG and includes a checking tool.
    ... InDesign may still be used for individual success criteria
    evalutaion and can be included in the Other column.
    ... Sueann had been discussing using Lotus Connections as the
    IBM implementation for ATAG, but there are pros and cons of
    using a large comprehensive tool.

    Tom: I have discussed with Sueann, Lotus Connections is used
    internally. I hope to have an answer for next week what tool
    IBM will recommend.

    JR: It does need to be a tool that people can get some kind of
    demo implementation that is public or needs a password that can
    be shared with the group.
    ... Alessando, what is the status of your tool, Standard Web?

    AM: the tool meets WCAG 2.0. What I am working on now is
    meeting ATAG 2.0. It is a limited CMS, more of a management
    system that the user can use to generate content.
    ... I expect to have it online in a few weeks for testing

    JR: Can you send a link to a demo version that the group can
    test?

    AM: Yes, the earlier version that creates accessible content,
    is in commercial use right now.
    ... I am thinking about making the new version free

    JR: [explains difference between Part A and Part B]
    ... it sounds like your existing tool would be of interest for
    meeting Part B. We have a lot of needs for examples for Part B.

    AM: www.standardweb.it I am having problems with the hosting
    vendor.

    <Jan> [9]http://www.standardweb.it/

       [9] http://www.standardweb.it/

    AM: You can see that the content that you enter will meet
    accessibility rules.
    ... I can create an account for anyone who needs it.

    JR: Please create an account for Jan and Jeanne.
    ... next week, if we think it will meet many success criteria,
    we will give it it's own column in the Implementation Report,
    otherwise, we will use it to meet individual success criteria.
    ... Alex, we did some work on Microsoft Office. If something
    comes across your desk that has an accessibility feature that
    meets one of our success criteria, e.g. accessible templates,
    checking and repair. The whole tool doesn't have to be
    accessible, just that it meets some of our individual criteria.

    AL: @@ Sharepoint for accessible templates

    JR: We are also looking for Alt tag management

    AL: We have a new way of managing ClipArt.

    JR: The recent update shows that more of our formerly yellow
    items (one implementation) are turning green (many implementation
    examples) and the there are fewer red (no implementations)
    items.
    ... Jeanne and I were looking at Moodle, to see where that met
    ATAG.
    ... there is a lot of work in motion now.
    ... Are there any upcoming holiday.

    <Jan> JS: TPAC dates have changed...

    <Jan> JS: They are now week of Nov 10-15

    <Jan> JS: If there are people who could attend please let
    Jeanne know.

    JR: The China market is very large, and where we are trying to
    broaden to the China market. We don't want a fragmentation of
    standards and want to include CHina in standards work.
