Re: Re[2]: SC Managers and success criteria review

Hi DavidIt is also worth noting that these requirements were agreed on as guidance only  (At least that is what I remember)


 "These requirements are provided as guidance to the WCAG Working Group...."


If you want to use them as blanket acceptance criteria I think that needs to go though a consensus process.

That's right Joshue. 


 Any member who assumes it is a group consensus may not have been reading our emails or following the group discussion sufficiently, and since this is a group list I think it is important for members to follow along. 


I also think its important for members to take initiative and not feel intimidated to jump in and start working... so we can meet the Feb 23 First Public working draft deadline that the group has forced upon itself.



The consensus on whether an SC passes the acceptance criteria would come from the surveys where these acceptance criteria would be polled from each member. 


Lisa these are short names for the conformance acceptance criteria ... so yes, they are the same. 



I have said "yes" for one that I am reasonably sure there will be consensus on. Otherwise I left them blank, waiting for the group's opinion, because I could not make a determination. It is not an indication of "fail" it is just that I cannot say that I believe words like "clearly" and "easily" are testable. The group may come to consensus on this, but they are huge changes ...

 Hi David,

Thanks for coming up with this way of looking at/presenting the candidate SCs, these suggestions are helpful and will be useful for this next important phase.
We are a little concerned that the estimations recorded in this spreadsheet, such as in 'Details',  may be perceived as the consensus of the group.  We  believe that this is not your intention, and that you wish to help the work progress but it could be perceived by others as representing group consensus.

So while we are happy for you to share your opinion, we urge working group members to not view this spreadsheet as being the 'current state of consensus' regarding these issues and to make sure they look at each proposal with a critical eye, to help the group arrive at the best success criteria it can.

Many thanks (as always) for your enthusiasm and efforts.

Thanks

Josh/AWK
