> 1.Issue #468: 11.3 (single-key binding): "At least a 
> majority" minimal 
> requirement needs review
>   http://server.rehab.uiuc.edu/ua-issues/issues-linear-lc2.html#468
> 
> JG: One proposal: just require single key for default functionalities.
> JG: Or - anything that you can do with single key+modifier you have to
>     do with a single key alone.
> IJ: I think that CMN's proposal was "a majority of the physical
>     keyboard".
> JG: How do you know how many keys the physical device has?
>     (APIs hide this information from you).
> GR: There's a javascript call where you can eliminate functionality
>     that way (navbar = "")
> 
> IJ: The problem is when the number of keys and the number of
> functionalities don't add up to 50% (one of the other).
> 
> Resolved: 
> 
>  - Minimal requirement of 11.4 is to have single key bindings for
>    at least all of what's in 11.5.
> 
>  - Add a Note to encourage developers to supply a bunch of single key
>    bindings AND that most functionalities should be available
>    for single-key bindings.
>  
>  - Add technique: mention that entering a special mode (e.g, via one
>    key) and having single key bindings after that is also useful.
> 
> 2.Issue #467: Checkpoints 3.2/3.7: User needs to be able to 
> toggle off 
>               as well as on (e.g., for a user with a
>               cognitive disability).
>   http://server.rehab.uiuc.edu/ua-issues/issues-linear-lc2.html#467
> 
>   JG: Toggle-off functionality is a new requirement. You can achieve
>   this (with more difficulty) by reloading. My preference is to
>   add this requirement to the techniques document.
> 
>   DA: My only problem with that approach is if refresh changes point
>   of regard.
> 
>   IJ: I think preserving POR is useful for refresh.
>  
>   JG: IE, Opera, NN all maintain POR when you refresh.
> 
>   DP: Loading time is also an issue. Another technique: when you
>   toggle one one, you automatically toggle the other one off.
> 
>   GR, TL: I think that P3 requirement is fine for this document.
> 
>   TL: Developers will instinctively think of "off" when they 
>   think of "on".
> 
>   Resolved: 
>   
>    - Add a P3 requirement for 3.2, 3.7 to toggle off
>      what has been toggled on.
> 
>    - Add to techniques of 9.4 to maintain POR after refresh.
> 
> 3.Issue #449: Create an executive summary for UAAG 1.0
>   http://server.rehab.uiuc.edu/ua-issues/issues-linear-lc2.html#449
> 
>  IJ: This will be part of the spec.
> 
>  JG: Please send editorial comments if you have any.
> 
>  Resolved:
>   - Include "summary" as appendix in UAAG 1.0.
> 
> 4. New navigation features:
> 
>  GR: Work for me!
> 
> 5. Input modality and G9 checkpoints
>    http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2001JanMar/0537
> 
>  Resolved: 
>   - "Any event handler" means any handler, whatever device
>      you conform for.
> 
>   - Move to Guideline 1: 9.3.
> 
> 6. Adopt 508 definition of AT?
>    http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2001JanMar/0535
> 
>   HB: Yes.
> 
>   Resolved:
> 
>      - Add 508 definition to end of our definition (as
>        an example of a more general definition).
> 
>   DP: Should we include definitions from other companies?
> 
>   Action IJ: Talk to Judy about this one as well.
> 
>   Action HB: Talk to EO about getting "How do people with
>              disabilities use the Web".
> 
> 7. Two glossary comments
>    http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2001JanMar/0524
> 
>   Resolved:
> 
>    - Proposed definition of "documentation" is ok.
>    - Ok to delete document source view as proposed.
> 
> 8. Checkpoints interdependent
>    http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2001JanMar/0515
> 
>   Resolved:
> 
>    - Adopt proposal (with editorial changes).
> 
> 9. Comments based on GL comments:
>    http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2001JanMar/0549

> a) Should we add "If all else fails, implement some API to 6.6"?
> 
>   JG: Not sure that it's relevant. But maybe on portable devices,
>   for example.
> 
>   DA: E.g., I can install a keyboard API in my Palm pilot that's not
>   there initially. Palm makes one API. The one I have is "GoType!"
> 
>   Proposed (for example):
> 
>    - 6.3 For markup languages other than HTML and XML, provide
>    programmatic access to content. Per 6.5, use standard APIs
>    of if not std API exists, provide access through some API.
> 
>   DP: If you provide programmatic access that's not useful to ATs,
>   then it doesn't serve the purposes of the document.
> 
>   GR: The requirement would be: if you use a proprietary API, then it
>   has to be publicly available.
> 
>   Resolved: 
>     - For 6.3, 6.4, 6.5: 
>        * Use standard APIs to achieve the requirement of the 
> checkpoint.
>        * If no standard API exists, the user agent must satisfy this
>          checkpoint using a publicly documented API.
> 
>   Resolved:
>     - Ian can fix labels "For content/UA" for 10.2
> 
>   Resolved:
>     - For checkpoint 3.2/3.7:
>       "When placeholders are rendered, allow the user to view the
>        original author-supplied content associated with each
>        placeholder."
> 
>   Resolved:
>    - Adopt change to 4.6 "at least the range of positions".
> 
>   Resolved:
>    - Leave 9.2 a P2 since not impossible.
>    - Add a note that UA should also allow reverse navigation.
>
