JA: Comments by April 22nd - post CSUN telecom next week (17 March)? RESOLUTION: No meeting on the 17th March as it's CSUN Review WAI-ALT attribute proposal (HTML5) - tentative JR: People still want to talk about it. JS: Concurs ... trying to build consensus - so when we go to HTML5 it will be a united front - otherwise there may be problems. JR: we need to avoid disputs KF: JR and you summarise, then we can talk JR: General Resolutions giving background (Reads Text) ... photo site as an example can use alt to put label 5 of 200 - but not good for accessible usage and authors should look at WCAG 2 for accessibility. ... The draft then defines 'Image validity' - all the points that must be met to mean the image is valid (in the context of accessibility). JA: long text alternatives - no longdef - can be depricated as describedby will cover this. MH: describedby will be pointed to a link. JA: role = presentation is equivalent to alt="" MH: did anyone suggest role be required JR: was some discussion but as there are only 2 options no thought necessary MH: does the term 'presentation' jar with anyone as it is so open to interpretation and misuse. KF: JR what's your view ... what if things are marked as they should not be - should user agents be able to see this JR: UA supposed to support ARIA role = presentation (don't add to dom). KF: some assistive technology corrects incorrect things, is this possible with this role? ... alt="" gives access but makes a statement - role = presentation cuts access as it is not in the dom - therefore no shot at this. JR: I agree - comes down to the trust issue JA: if author gets it wrong - no access to src? JR: this can be placed anywhere and there dom is not modified. <AllanJ> SH: worrying that things fall out of the DOM KF: Internal mail to pf working group - can we get greater detail <AllanJ> ...conflicts with accessibility and UA to repair MH: worrying how things could drop out of the accessibility feature. ... seems to be a backward step <JR> Here's a link http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-wai-aria-20090224/ #presentation JA: should always be in the dom - but can be ignored <AllanJ> concerns: <AllanJ> 1. role=presentation - misuse or abuse of that role <AllanJ> want role=image to convey this is content, but no alt yet and UA should look for fall back content <AllanJ> JR: alt is required in HTML4, one purpose is for author education <AllanJ> ...forces author to use alt (properly or not)...trust <AllanJ> MH: will have validation error if alt="" with no role=presentation <AllanJ> KF: what is UA fall back for role=presentation KF: this makes accessibility harder JR: respect the opinion, may need to take it back ... How will people behave - we just don't no too many factors... <AllanJ> SH: ok with @alt, issue with role=presentation <AllanJ> ...does UA need to make a requirement to cover "The user agent MAY choose not to present all structural aspects of the element being repurposed. " from http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-wai- aria-20090224/#presentation <AllanJ> JR: +1 <AllanJ> ...should appear in the dom SH: +1 <AllanJ> JA: should be in DOM by default, user has option to opt-out <AllanJ> JR: UA needs a setting sh: +1 KFord: css concept of generated content - not supposed to be in the dom either. <AllanJ> JA: is it covered by 2.1.2 2.1.2 Name, Role, State, Value, Description: For all user interface components including the user interface and rendered content, make available the name, role, state, value, and description via an accessibility platform architecture. (Level A) <AllanJ> ACTION: JA to ping Gregory and David on PF about Aria issues [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/03/12-ua-minutes.html#action02] <trackbot> Created ACTION-159 - Ping Gregory and David on PF about Aria issues [on Jim Allan - due 2009-03-19]. RESOLUTION: await KFords comments back from his PF contact - we have time before their 'call', and contact Gregory and David also on PF. THIS NEEDS REVISITING - KEEP ON AGENDA. <JR> JR could join by phone - chance I could attend in person but not sure how good Can we commit to attend TPAC in Santa Clara California Nov 2-6, 2009 JA: when do we need to commit? JS: Not sure, maybe restructuring - better to say no and then go for it at a later date KFord: thinks we say no JA: do this as a No, initially. RESOLUTION: No to meeting at TPAC in Santa Clara California Nov 2-6, 2009. CSUN Presentation discussion JA: JS and I are still thrashing this. Currently looking at presenting it as: things we do, issues with browsers, things we're trying to fix, illustrated with demos, examples etc. Then ask people to comment on the draft. JS: Know of people attending - can you brief them that the presentation will occur on Saturday.
