16:16:07 SF: Only re-opened requests have to be provided by 11th Feb. Most change proposals are due by 18th Feb.
16:16:22 http://dev.w3.org/html5/status/issue-status.html
16:17:31 PC: Most are due on the 15th or 16th. The chairs were being conservative, and considerate to the TF at the same time.

16:17:58 PC: We did decide to stick to the 11th for re-opned requests.

16:18:59 PC: We sent a personal reminder to people who have re-opned requests without change proposals.
16:19:24 PC: Job 1 is to figure out who, and when.
16:19:41 JS: We need our wiki updated with these new issues. Could someone take that on?
16:21:03 LW: If someone can let me know what and where, I don't mind.
16:21:31 RS: Paul, were the chairs able to review the proposal for the baseline?
16:21:47 PC: I'll be frank, no. It rings a bell though. Let me check a moment.

16:24:44 Re ISSUE-131 - see my email to the TF in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2012Jan/0161.html
16:24:57 SF: There is an example in the spec that advocates a CSS technique that causes problems for keyboard only users in relation to visible focus.
16:25:01 +Judy
16:25:04 ISSUE-131 is open and there is a pending call for change proposals.
16:25:13 Topic: Issue 194
16:25:26 -> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/194 HTML-ISSUE-194
16:26:10 JF: There is no way to link a transcript with an audio or video element.
16:26:47 JF: I can write the change proposal for this. I'll ping Silvia, as she filed the bug originally.

16:28:31 -> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/199 HTML-ISSUE-199
16:28:52 MC: This is the omnibus escalation that encompasses all ARIA bugs.
16:29:31 MC: We took a representative bug and escalated it, then tied similar smaller bugs into it.
16:29:31 q+
16:30:36 See http://dev.w3.org/html5/status/issue-status.html#ISSUE-199 which lists the other bugs
16:30:42 RS: How does one write a change proposal for this? Was the plan for multiple proposals?
16:32:00 RS: What's the time frame for proposals?
16:32:13 PC: Until 16th Feb.
16:32:37 JS: Do we need to reconstitute the ARIA mapping sub team?
16:34:07 I don't understand the statement "the Editor is not responding".
16:34:48 SF: Is it worth us providing the information needed for these bugs, and asking him to write something?
16:35:01 MC: No, it's probably better for us to write something.
16:35:54 for the record, I believe it was a mistake to escalate those issues at this point
16:36:23 q+
16:36:25 SF: We hadn't responded to the needs info request. They're important for HTML5 now, not just down the track.
16:36:32 in general, I think it's a mistake to prematurely escalate any issues until we have clearly reached a point of disagreement with an editor

16:37:44 the escalation path was intended for not being used until we had reached an impasse -- that is, when it was clear the we could not get agreement between the editor and a commenter
16:37:50 PC: The bugs here are linked because I recommended to the TF that they should be. If they need to be split at any point for whatever reason, you should let me know.
16:38:19 q-
16:39:18 SF: What happens if we de-escalate them? Does that move them out of LC bugs?
16:39:20 what we are doing by escalating them is cutting off the normal process of attempting to reach agreement in a reasonable way and instead imposing months of additional change-proposal-writing and process overhead on ourselves and the group and the chairs
16:40:05 PC: The chairs are always willing to see bugs closed based on consensus. The editor has told us he's not working on LC bugs at the moment.
16:40:18 despite him having said that, he has been resolving LC bugs
16:40:27 we are now down to 35 LC bugs
16:40:36 and Hixie is continuing to work on them
16:40:51 PC: If you don't escalate them and don't get agreement with the editor, they will be moved into the next LC or to a later draft of the spec.
16:41:11 SF: We can still provide further information to the editor, or we can go further and provide the change proposal.
16:41:30 JS: Suggest a meeting is the sensible next step.

16:41:54 SF: Mike, what do you suggest?
16:42:38 MS: Suggest we continue to get these bugs resolved. In particular the bug about lexical processing rules in ARIA. Hixie couldn't do anythig further, he was waiting for information.
16:43:13 SF: If we de-escalate them, can we later re-escalate them?
16:43:19 PC: No, that date has passed.
16:43:51 Judy has joined #html-a11y
16:43:56 q+ to repeat that the escalation path was intended for bugs for which we had clearly reached an impasse and have no other way of reaching agreement
16:44:04 q+
16:44:22 JS: Isn't this substantively the same thing?
16:44:44 q+
16:45:19 q?
16:45:20 CS: If there's information to be provided, let's provide it.
16:45:25 ack ju
16:45:43 RS: Paul, what is the response time after a change proposal has been submitted?
16:46:46 PC: As soon as the change proposal deadline passes, there will be a counter proposal invitation.
16:48:00 agenda?
16:48:01 PC: After 15th and 16th Feb, there will be a month for counter proposals to be submitted.

16:48:33 q?
16:48:45 PC: The timetable has been published for some while now.
16:49:18 JF: Is it reasonable to presume that we could request an extension to the timeline?
16:49:24 PC: No idea how the chairs would respond.
16:49:32 JF: So would it be unreasonable to request?
16:49:52 PC: If you want to do that, you should go ahead. I can't offer an opinion.
