== Summary ==
1. We gathered thoughts from the homework assignment to review the
research and prototype documentation
<https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1hm68EMWdL3KT85vy3VoJ_w7f5mWeAwfeON8ZFgghpvY/>.
This discussion centered around the complexities of any equity
solution. We discussed the need for language and culture
complexities in the guidance. WCAG3 at first release must have some
visible improvement in equity over WCAG2 and must have a process for
improving equity.
2. We worked on thedefinition of equity and started developing use
cases
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1esfSksGbTYTwdk0QI3fR5wsd7_9Boa9Gkv5dY-rj7pM/edit#heading=h.kgfso9bpb84i>.
We discussed the difference between equity and equal and found it
useful to look at the mathematical differences. Webster definition
of "Fairness and justice in the way people are treated". We know
that these concepts are not absolutes and are shaped by individual
worldview, culture, and experiences. How can we deal with that in a
standards environment? We started listing use cases to capture some
of the complexities.
3. We started moving some of the discussion into a draft report wiki
page <https://github.com/w3c/silver/wiki/Equity-Framework>. We will
be working to polish and flesh out this area.
