14:13:44 [Detlev]
Kim: Jan walking though Comparison BBC - WCAG table
14:14:52 [Detlev]
Jan: Standard operating system alerts must be used where available - not covered in WCAG but in UAAG
14:15:52 [Detlev]
Jan: Touch events must only be triggered when touch is removed from a control - not covered there might be a future touch interface technique for that

ok, jon_avila, I now associate Jon_avila with [GVoice]
14:16:11 [jon_avila]
q?
14:17:18 [Detlev]
Detlev: Question on place of touch interaction in WCAG hierarch<
14:17:24 [jon_avila]
q?
14:17:42 [Detlev]
Jan: indieUI forcuses on that - in this case its related to focussing SC
14:18:28 [Detlev]
Jon: This requirement may have exceptions, not intended for screen reader use
14:19:22 [Detlev]
Jon: requirment addresses users without fine motor control
14:19:42 [jon_avila]
q?
14:20:12 [Detlev]
Jan asking whether SC 3.2.1 On focus is the right place for touch related techniques
14:20:39 [Detlev]
Jon: Was originally thinking of 2.1.1 keyboard but not the ideal place
14:21:25 [Detlev]
Jan: So either find a place within scheme of SCs or say it's outside WCAG hierarchy
14:21:59 [Detlev]
Jan: better out it in and wait to updated WCAG
14:22:39 [Detlev]
Jan: Touch events must only be triggered when touch is removed from a control - was removed frm WCAG 2.0 - still in in BBC guidelines
14:23:03 [Detlev]
Jon: Maybe an issue in some markets (lack of modern kit?)
14:23:49 [Detlev]
Jon: There are some SCR Techniques - we need to ensure that these are supported on mobile browsers with AT
14:24:39 [jeanne]
I agree that we should not include this requirement to remove Javascript.
14:25:17 [jeanne]
q+ to say that is not an accessibility issue
14:25:47 [Jan_]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opera_Mini#JavaScript_support
14:27:12 [Detlev]
Jeanne: Javascript support is not a direct accessibility issue
14:28:01 [jon_avila]
+1 with Jeanne
14:28:16 [Detlev]
Jeanne: So much negative views of accessibility in the developer community that requirng suport of non-JS would be foolish
14:28:25 [KimPatch]
+1
14:28:37 [Detlev]
Jeanne: Nearly everything is based on JS these days...
14:28:42 [Detlev]
General agreement
14:28:43 [Jan_]
http://trends.builtwith.com/docinfo/Javascript
14:29:41 [Detlev]
Opera mini has a high level of JS suport
14:30:12 [Detlev]
Jan: "Audio must not play automatically unless the user is made aware this is happening or a pause/stop button is provided" - WCAG similar
14:31:37 [Detlev]
Jan: "Metadata should be provided for media" - points to a technique for 1.2.3 Audio Description or Media Alternative (Prerecorded):
14:32:15 [Detlev]
Jon: There are other places within WCAG for metadata (in 1.1.1)
14:32:40 [jeanne]
s/suport of non-JS would be foolish/requiring non-JS would be setting us backward.

14:34:25 [Detlev]
Jan: will change/ include in mapping
14:35:21 [Detlev]
Jan: BBC: Recommendations more related to usability, less to a11y
14:37:13 [Detlev]
Jon: The point was to determine where within the WCAG scheme one could slot in BBC techniques
14:38:00 [Detlev]
Jon: Captions weren't perhaps covered because they are linked to different req.
14:38:52 [Detlev]
Jon: Bypass blocks proably not covered because of the smaller screen on mobile
14:39:36 [Detlev]
Multiple ways probablly not covered because mobl apps not considered a collection of pages
14:40:34 [jeanne]
q+ for background of what we are doing with the gap analysis
14:40:41 [Detlev]
Jan: BBC guidelines cannot claim the same universality as WCAG - corporate perspective
14:41:13 [Detlev]
Jon: Guidelines good, can be used as gudance, not adopted directly
14:41:52 [Detlev]
Kim: Not sure whether BBC has been asked to 'donate' techniques
14:42:23 [Detlev]
Jeanne: Gap analysis serves to identify need for additional techniques
14:43:15 [Detlev]
Zakim, take up next

q+
14:46:20 [Detlev]
Jan: Differnet content may be loaded at different breakpoints, things may be switched
14:47:04 [Detlev]
Jeanne: Discussion going on responsive image rec. - allowing change of images where img would require different alt

14:48:33 [Detlev]
q+
14:49:53 [Detlev]
Jon: Form design: placeholder issues - have smaller label appear above the input
14:50:10 [Detlev]
q-
14:50:39 [Detlev]
Jon: tables may be dynamically formatted at different breakppoints
14:50:58 [Detlev]
Jon: so the assumption that some things stay the same may be incorrect

Jon - acknowledges differences to desktop - gestures mimicking back button
14:56:34 [jeanne]
q+ to ask if we could make a statement that we do not support testing for assistive tech and providing a different page for assistive tech users.
14:57:19 [Detlev]
Kim: basic point was navigation mechanisms are diverse and often diferent from desktop
14:58:00 [Detlev]
Jeanne: Responsive design is not the same as delivering custom designs to particular assistive technologies
14:58:40 [jon_avila]
q?
14:59:33 [Detlev]
Jon: Responsive design could go further by being responsive to user preferences (such as prefer desktop site=
14:59:39 [jeanne]
+1 to Jon's comment
15:00:40 [Detlev]
Jan: Trigger breakpoints to have larger text in one column
15:01:14 [Detlev]
Jon: Agrees that detection of AT not desirable - more listening to user prefs
15:04:47 [Detlev]
Detlev: Mentioning customisabilty options
