July 3rd meeting
JB: Light turnout today, so we will need to do more work. Kelly, Simon
and Jeanne are available. Judy may be traveling. US Holiday on the 4th.
... We will check back at the end of the meeting, and check with the list.
Charter
<scribe> ACTION: Jeanne will update the Charter to add the Testing
Materials document to the Success Critieria and the milestones updated
with all documents. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/06/26-ua-irc]
<scribe> ACTION: Jeanne will check the Process document to see if all
the deliverables have to be tracked in the Milestones section. [recorded
in http://www.w3.org/2008/06/26-ua-irc]
JB: would like to see publication before December for Techniques.
KF: Thinks that December is a realistic date.
JB: Reviews the publication process: Editors draft, Public Working Draft
(which should be published about every 3 months).\
... Techniques are not normative, and are not fixed. It can start
incomplete.
SH: We are in the process of publishing a literature review where
techniques and solutions to accessibility problems.
... It is in the form of a technical report. Would have no problems
releasing it to the group.
JB: Did you look at the Requirements document for UAAG 2.0?
SH: This is the second draft, it has about 70 citations, but I expect it
to be at 140 by the end.
<scribe> ACTION: Change Charter Timeline View Summary for December 2008
to say "First Working Draft of Techniques" [recorded in
http://www.w3.org/2008/06/26-ua-irc]
KF: Reasonable to publish 2 drafts before December would be reasonable.
It will be a chance to put more action into the group.
... Recommend publishing in the middle of August and middle of November.
JB: August is not a good time because of holidays. Aiming for September
2008 would be more realistic.
... Then do a tandem release of Guidelines and Techniques so they are
published together.
... in December 2008.
... There is no schedule of the Test Suite in the Timeline view.
... When is it reasonable to start bringing the Test Suite on line?
Sometime in Q2 2009 we should have test materials coming on line.
KF: It seems reasonable. We would be able to contribute some tests.
<scribe> ACTION: Jeanne add in "First Draft of Test Materials for June
2009" [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/06/26-ua-irc]
SH: What sort of Test Materials?
JB: There is flexibility, we need to write a requirements document. It
has been an issue with WCAG Test Suite with many opinions. '
SH: Is the Eclipse ACTF AccProbe which allows testing of content and
user interface.
<Judy> http://www.eclipse.org/actf/
<Judy> http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/actf/
<Judy> UAAG 1.0 old test materials: http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/TS/html401/
SH: Validation agent in AccProbe is mature for testing user interfaces,
not as mature for testing content.
... We may be able to use some XML test routines by December.
... they are trying to move it to Firefox, Opera and IE platform.
JB: This would be good to have a briefing on this in the next few months.
<scribe> ACTION: Jeanne will schedule a meeting for a briefing on
AccProbe with background material. [recorded in
http://www.w3.org/2008/06/26-ua-irc]
JB: Recommend adding a deliverable at beginning of 2. Add a requirements
document for the Test Materials as an internal document and perhaps a
W3C note.
... Let's not add it to the list but keep that in mind.
... Jeanne and I will add in quarterly steps before bringing it to
Management Team.
There were no objections to Jeanne and Judy working on the timeline.
Keyboard topics
http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2008/keyboardProposals20080624.html
JB: Jim sent out a number of emails of different issues. Jeanne pulled
it into one page where it could be compared in the larger structure of
the Guideline.
... We need to condense and streamline this section. The titles for each
section need to be more clear.
... for example, Precedence of Keystroke Processing (4.1.2) should be
Documentation of Keystroke Processing
... "Chrome" interface is redundant.
<scribe> ACTION: Jeanne will work on cleaning up the page with the
comparison of the keyboard proposals for Monday. [recorded in
http://www.w3.org/2008/06/26-ua-irc]
SH, KF, are available for July 10. Judy and Jeanne will check people's
availability for the 3rd.
