Sorry for the delay and lack of formatting. Action items from last week: action michael: propose new defn for word content (try for monday, 5 may) action gian: go through document looking at use of the word content. look for ambiguous uses, places where it could be replaced with anothe word, etc. (try for early next week) action jason: draft a defn for web site based on today's discussion Present: Jason White, Jibari Simmons, Matt May, Avi Arditti, Wendy Chisholm, Michael Cooper, Roberto Scano, Gian Sampson-Wild, Ben Caldwell, Gregg Vanderheiden, Lisa Seeman, Bengt Farre Regrets: Doyle Burnett, John Slatin, Lee Roberts, Loretta Guarino Reid, Cynthia Shelly === Definitions http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2003AprJun/att-0111/WCAG-Definitions-CSUN-2003.htm === defn of content if look at content and web resources: content says "anything rendered by user agent" resource "...and rendered by UA" thus, resource is any content accessed through web protocols. except resources lists things not listed under content if content is anything rendered by UA and accessed through protocols. resources is a subset of content. circularity. content is anything rendered by ua. ua is anything that renders content. anything rendered by UA implies image and text. to say anything between start and end tag would mean "just text" since img referenced by attribute don't see are the other aspects, alt-tag renderable by ua but text? content? seems to miss out on functonality. what is the defn of functionality? what about format info? info sent to ua but how rendered is up to ua is that content? perhaps content is any info sent to ua? defn from UAAG is written technical. there are items of content that don't appear in a DOM. but are part of content want more restrictive defn or broader? perhaps to a thing can have content and ua features, our guidelines apply to only content-like features. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-au/1999JulSep/0203.html might be ok for defn to be circular put Web in front of content, these are running on devices that support a variety of mime types is #3 a defn? It is used in the terms non-text content and text content" basically a see also Brainstorming - an even fuzzier definition perhaps, but maybe content is "information transmitted to a user" "info conveyed to users" ways that we use "content" in the current draft: non-text content, content and structure, foreground content, "characters and words in the content", "elements in teh content", facilitate content orientation and navigation, structure within content, content and controls, ability of content to work with technology, technologies relied upon by the content, Web-based content Web content and sites what we mean is a part or a section or a complete web page all of those terms could be replaced by section not just page - site or application "anything rendered by ua" might pick up all that we need. might work. might not want to take as normative uaag defn if so, then need to discuss with UAWG action michael: propose new defn for word content (try for monday, 5 may) action gian: go through document looking at use of the word content. look for ambiguous uses, places where it could be replaced with anothe word, etc. (try for early next week) what about the debatable items? michael will consider while drafting === defn of user agent web applications are user agent web resources: use similar to uaag defn === defn of web site network: ambiguous single uri? same server? same ip address? http://www.phoenix5.org/glossary/Web_site.html A web site is a collection or combination of linked resources that can be accessed and rendered through or started from a single URI also a definition could be find here: http://hostingworks.com/support/dict.phtml?foldoc=web+site it's the URI that we focus on. if you in a uri, anything with that base uri is the site. every page is a different uri http://www.w3.org/1999/05/WCA-terms/ think that http://www.w3.org/1999/05/WCA-terms/ need a working group for mantain updated :-/ there is a w3c glossary project underway :) QA is taking responsibility use defn from f2f until hear otherwise prefer the administrative defn currently overbroad and doesn' thave much meaning action jason: draft a defn for web site based on today's discussion -- wendy a chisholm world wide web consortium web accessibility initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI/ /--
