RE: MINUTES - AGWG meeting 18th June

David, I am asking SHOULD (as in 2.2) not DOES (as in 2.0/2.1).

I'm not sure I understand the question. Because I would answer this by saying they are not required at any level (if there is AD).


Cheers,

Dear Chairs,
I respectfully request a survey to help clarify Issue 682 (Revisiting Transcripts and Audio Description) into concrete proposals.  Please see:
http://github.com/w3c/wcag/issues/782

The questions I would like to see on survey are:

  1.  Should transcripts be required for prerecorded synchronized media at either Level A or Level AA?

     *   No, but I can live with a change.
     *   No, and I oppose any change for 2.2
     *   Yes, and I am open to transcripts being Level A or AA
     *   Yes, but only if transcripts are Level A
     *   Yes, but only if transcripts are Level AA

2.     Should we consider requiring AD for live events at AAA?
By “transcript”, I (of course) mean a textual alternative for time-based media, per the WCAG definition.
Please do NOT (yet) survey for how to best address (1) and (2) above, as I think we first need to decide if there even should be a change.
Thank you!
