<Zakim> MichaelC, you wanted to ask about WAI IG announcement messages
<Ryladog> what is the passocde for webex?
<Ryladog> what is the passocde for webex?
<scribe> scribenick: LJWatson
<Lisa_Seeman> can someone ping me the webex password
JS: COGA TF has two approaches to a gap analysis and would like opinions from both their parent WGs.
<Lisa_Seeman> thanks
JS: Invited experts can now join
APA.
... We will close down the PF WG and infrastructure at the end
of this year.
... We need to have all member organisations transferred before
then.
MC: If you are an IE and haven't transferred, please do.
LS: I couldn't get access.
MC: Use your W3C password. If you still have trouble contact me offline.
JN: Still working on transferring.
JS: Will it be a problem before the end of December?
JN: ARIA should be ok, APA may be a problem.
JS: Microsoft hasn't joined.
CS: Will follow-up on that.
... Have we joined ARIA?
MC: Not yet.
JS: We will likely adopt the same approach as ARIA for the email list, to enable wide participation from the community.
MC: Actions due in January for Cyns and Rich, actions due next week for Janina, James, LĂ©onie.

KHS: Hoping we can come back to
this when we talk about requirements for APIs.
... Give me until January.
<MichaelC> action-1669 due 20 Jan 2016
<trackbot> Set action-1669 Look at data on the web best practices http://www.w3.org/tr/dwbp/ due date to 2016-01-20.
MC: Under CR
... CSS Custom Properties for Cascading Variables L1
<MichaelC> CSS Custom Properties for Cascading Variables Module Level 1
MC: Think we decided we didn't want to look at this, but can't be sure.
JS: Sounds correct to me.
MC: CSS Will Change module L1
<MichaelC> CSS Will Change Module Level 1
JN: Why is this CSS and not DOM?
MC: Assume it's because the CSS
will change. Don't know though.
... Ok, no need to review.
... WD
... No FPWDs.
JS: Don't need to go through these now.
JF: Think we should get more
clarity on Media Source Extensions (CR)
... It will allow JavaScript to be used to create broadcast
playlists.
... It's a very technical document.
... If this functionality looks to string together media blobs,
what happens to the supporting content?
JS: We can comment to say that we
would like this document to acknowledge this point and show how
alternative/supporting content should be handled.
... Do you think the spec is written in such a way that makes
it difficult to understand the intent?
JF: There is some plain content,
but there is a lot of procedural/API stuff.
... Outside of the intro it starts to get technical very
quickly.
JS: What's the window for responding?
JF: Posted on 12 November.
JS: Think we should comment.
Perhaps hold the HTML TF call tomorrow to discuss.
... Anything else?
JF: There is a large image in the spec. It has an alt but no detailed description for the pipeline.
KHS: Isn't it only the overview that should have the plain language?
JF: Even if that were the case, what they're attempting to do still isn't clearly defined enough.
JS: We should grep the spec to see how often key words like "captions" turn up.
JF: There is no mention of "captions" for example.
KHS: These APIs are intended to be very specific.
LW: Conversations in different places within W3 are leading towards the idea we can make APIs easier to understand by providing plain language/prose explanations.
<JF> https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/wiki/Spec_Review/Community_Groups#New_Community_Groups_to_review
JF: Three CGs set up in September
RDF Test suite curation, Social Economy, and Machine Learning
Schema.
... The Machine Learning Schema may be of interest, prhaps with
reference to COGA. It's tennuous at best though.
... They're looking to promote schemas for data mining and
machine learning.
... Could argue that machine learning and learning algorithms
are relevant to COGA.
JS: Suggest Markku Hakkinen looks at this.
<scribe> ACTION: Suggest Markku to have RQTF to look at the Machine Learning Schema CG for a11y implications - due 15 Feb 2016 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2015/12/09-pf-minutes.html#action01]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-1759 - Have rqtf to look at the machine learning schema cg for a11y implications [on Markku Hakkinen - due 2016-02-17].
LS: We have information in lots
of different places.
... We need to put it into digestible form.
... It is a lot of work so we need to get it right.
<Lisa_Seeman> https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/cognitive-a11y-tf/wiki/Gap_Analysis_Summary#Summary_of_Issues
LS: There are two proposals. We've taken a single issue and put it into the different proposed formats, so people can look at both.
Approach 1 is a summary.
scribe: Each issue is summarised
in about half a page.
... The solution is also summarised.
... Approach 2 is a table format.
<Lisa_Seeman> https://rawgit.com/w3c/coga/master/gap-analysis/table.html
scribe: The table contains all
user needs and all user requirements, and how we will solve
them.
... This resulted in a very long table.
... So we've grouped things with headings within the
table.
... Another option would be to make each user need a separate
table.
rssagent, make minutes
scribe: The question is do people
feel we need the summary, the table, or both?
... If the table, then do we need one or both?
KHS: Why not the summary at the top of the table?
LS: Only reason is that it doubles the work.
JF: If you need help getting this
written, I have someone on team interested in helping.
... I like the separated table instead of all users in a single
table.
LS: We can't do it by user group.
That would explode.
... We can do it by user requirement though.
JF: So user requirements would be good, but again separate tables.
LS: If we have a summary do we need the tables, or vice versa?
JF: People consume content differently. Having both seems like the optimum solution.
+1 to both summary and tables.
JS: Agree with JF.
... If you have a lot of people unfamiliar with the topic,
focusing on the summary first might be a good approach.
LS: In a first WD getting the summary right, then adding the tables later?
JS: Yes.
LW: That seems like a good strategy.
JF: Yes.
... Introducing Kurt, my colleague at Deque who is interested
in helping with this activity.
LS: Welcome Kurt. You need to join the calls so we can include you on the work.
KM: Will do.
LS: We can add you to whichever sub-group you'd like to be part of.

<MichaelC> Spec Review in APA wiki
<MichaelC> Spec Review Overview
mc: has a spec review wiki - will
create a page when a spec is reviewed
... uses feature called subpages, helps keep them organized,
wondering about naming pages
... each page has a link to the spec and a bullet list of
activity
... over time we would look at page, and on review add a
note
... when we have comments for the WG, we put a pointer in the
list
... any input?
js: how hierarchical is it? As we
grow we could get in trouble
... we need a log like requirement...
mc: we can add other
categories...
... we could categorize them by technology, WG...
... could link to other things
... may have to use wiki search features or internet search
features
js: think about this, would like to get started in January... would like to get it going... and have been asked to engage the wider community
