fesch: can start email threads on taxonomy definitions
14:15:57 [richardschwerdtfeger]

doug: I think it is good to come from both angles - doesn't see a big difference between the staw man taxonomy
14:20:01 [fesch]
doug: chart type taxonomy has more properties - roles, category, values, parent applies to...
14:33:08 [fesch]
doug: describing axis
14:33:36 [fesch]
fesch: issues on "aria-axisdimension"
14:35:25 [fesch]
doug: may have different level of abstractions - depending on whether we have well known charts or not
14:37:25 [fesch]
jw: aria defines a ontology which is a conceptional hierarchy, and we may have very specific kind some may instantiate and some more abstract
14:37:52 [fesch]
jw: lets think of this a hierarchy
14:39:11 [fesch]
doug: in aria 1 you can't instantiate an higher level abstract role, we will allow instantiating higher level roles
14:40:45 [fesch]
rich: discussion on aria-axisdimension can be a attribute...
14:41:48 [fesch]
rich: don't need to include role in the attribute name -ie aria-axisdimension could be dimension
14:42:27 [fesch]
doug: thinks the long name aria-axisdimension makes it easier for software to read it
14:50:06 [fesch]
fesch: discussion on axis vs dimensions
14:51:21 [fesch]
doug: lets delay detailed discussion on axis vs dimension
14:55:37 [fesch]
doug: described legends
14:55:56 [fesch]
doug: described dataset
14:57:02 [fesch]
doug: might have multiple datasets in a chart
14:58:39 [fesch]
fred: does a dataset = a table?
14:59:31 [fesch]
amelia: a dataset could be a table and rows are a data point
15:00:08 [richardschwerdtfeger]
RRSAgent, make log public
15:00:08 [fesch]
doug: data set may not = a table
15:01:56 [fesch]
amelia: likes term facet
15:02:51 [fesch]
doug: tried to limit aria roles and attributes to make it easy to put in the SVG
15:04:12 [fesch]
doug: tried to map to objects in the SVG
15:05:05 [fesch]
rs: doug is saying axis is an important container... affects the mapping specification which we need to consider
15:06:08 [fesch]
doug: advantage is you must be explicit so the screen reader can extract the information
15:07:01 [fesch]
rs: each role has a defined name computation strategy - two ways to approach it, name from content... we don't want name from context
15:08:04 [fesch]
doug: mentions different facets, x, y, legend, size.... might have invisible facet in there
15:09:45 [fesch]
rs: what is strategy on axis labels?
15:10:13 [fesch]
doug: strategy varies
15:11:10 [fesch]
doug: for value min and value max might be better strategy than worrying about axis ticks
15:12:09 [fesch]
doug: should have document on interaction modes
15:12:45 [fesch]
rs: graphs may be scrollable....
15:14:15 [fesch]
rs: do you think scrollable interaction is valuable or not?
15:14:34 [fesch]
doug: yes
15:17:20 [fesch]
fesch: defender view vs scrollable, zoomable - scrollable, zoomable get whole chart, defender view - get a window - as a entire chart
15:22:41 [AmeliaBR]

15:24:53 [fesch]
amelia: likes strategy of focusing on mappings... will work on strawmen and keeping stuff general
15:25:11 [fesch]
