15:05:51 Topic: Canvas 2D
15:06:15 CMN: Where are we? Last call has 2 weeks to run, we need testing plan for the new stuff, and Rich is on vacation this week.
15:06:29 zakim, unmute me
15:06:29 janina should no longer be muted
15:06:41 PC: Have been doing some work on this. Cannot find previous canvas tests :(
15:07:19 … asking for help. Also working with previous editors to see how we handle LC comments. Most important thing from the TF is to confirm status of two new accessibility features in implementation
15:07:58 ACTION: CMN check with Rich next week on testing of new accessibility features
15:07:59 Error finding 'CMN'. You can review and register nicknames at .
15:08:13 ACTION: chaals to check with Rich next week on testing of new accessibility features
15:08:13 Created ACTION-322 - Check with rich next week on testing of new accessibility features [on Charles McCathie Nevile - due 2015-06-04].
15:08:48 JS: My concern, under old process, is that we don't leave last call and go to CR still having problems. Want to make sure we don't find that in testing new accessibility features.

15:09:35 Topic: Alt Guidance
15:09:59 CMN: We're waiting for Liam to sync his changes to the editor's draft.
15:10:08 ... including a statement that the goal
15:10:31 ... Liam says it should be done this week. So that's where to file issues/Github.
15:11:12 -> https://github.com/w3c/alt-techniques/ draft repository

15:12:04 better url? http://w3c.github.io/alt-techniques/
15:12:05 WG Note: http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/NOTE-html-alt-techniques-20150521/
15:12:23 or is that branch out of sync maybe... nm
15:12:45 PC: Thought we agreed to file issues against the HTML spec. Why the editor's draft?
15:13:22 CMN: We agreed to work on a draft within the TF, then propose changes to the HTML spec.
15:13:39 +Liam
15:13:50 ... We'll send proposed text, and the HTML editors can merge it into the HTML spec if agreeable.
15:14:28 PC: So the second link is a copy of part of the HTML spec?
15:14:59 +Cynthia_Shelly
15:15:13 CMN: It's indeterminate until Liam syncs the changes.
15:15:28 Present+ Liam, Cynthia
15:16:02 LQ: It will have a statement to indicate the goal more clearly.
15:16:19 ... I'm doing what may be a fairly big reorganisation to make it more usable.
15:16:42 ... Then will issue a pull request if the TF agrees the content is an improvement on the current spec text.
15:17:20 PC: Thinking about a single pull request for a mass of changes.
15:17:30 CMN: That's an understood problem.
15:17:46 LQ: Can't do pull requests on small changes when the doc has been reogganised.
15:17:55 CMN: We'll provide enough detail for review.
15:18:02 Topic: Transcript
15:18:29 https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Full_Transcript
15:18:37 CMN: Given use cases, we have a roughly workable approach. Need to draft spec text, but JF and I have not done so.
15:18:50 ACTION: chaals to draft a transcript extension specification
15:18:50 Created ACTION-323 - Draft a transcript extension specification [on Charles McCathie Nevile - due 2015-06-04].
15:19:00 JF: At the F2F in Seattle, Paul recommended we circulate the proposed solution more widely.
15:19:34 ... Question is what we do?
15:19:56 CMN: We should note that finding a name for the element is still an issue.

15:21:18 agendum 7. "Tab Panels, Léonie - http://bkardell.github.io/common-panel/index-ljw.html" taken up [from chaals]
15:21:25 Topic: Tab Panels
15:22:27 BK: There are a number of common interface metaphors on the web which boil down to a set of "panels"…
15:22:37 … some of them are described through ARIA.
15:23:27 … They are currently difficult to implement - requiring a collection of JS, CSS, etc, and they can be fragile especially with respect to accessibility.
15:24:07 … We have put together a proposal that provides elements "panelset", "panel", … and DOM apis etc, that would provide a simple markup-based approach, stylable with CSS.
15:24:49 … This becomes quite valuable in supporting responsive design, enabling the same content to transform from a carousel to an accordion, for example, depending on media characteristics.
15:25:00 -> http://bkardell.github.io/common-panel/index-ljw.html Current proposal
15:25:16 … And thus World Peace and silver unicorns...
15:25:57 BK: There is a prototype that shows this functioning so you can play with it. Please do, and file bugs.
15:26:10 … we would like to drive this through the new incubator group for HTML.
15:26:13 q+
15:26:47 … this is a good opportunity to demonstrate a path for bringing an experiment into HTML, with necessary input along the way
15:27:06 CMN: Next steps? should this go from TF to the HTML group directly?
15:27:42 newtron has joined #html-a11y
15:27:47 BK: Want to get a lot of people looking and testing this…
15:28:07 q+
15:28:31 -Judy
15:29:21 +Judy
15:29:25 BK: I am using this. If I start with something accessible it is easier not to break that, which is nice. Please look at it and test it. I've seen it simplify things we need to do, but is that true for people outside my organisation?
15:29:28 ack pa
15:30:20 PC: HTML group is only chartered for another month. Not obvious that it will continue in its current form for much longer. I'd like to suggest in-depth discussions contniue in the TF where there is critical mass, and tell the WG what you are doing when you are happy with that.
15:30:48 … seems TFs are the short-term place for getting work done on HTML - but please also make sure you share the information.
15:30:56 ack me
15:31:17 it is listed on https://specs.webplatform.org/ btw
15:31:54 ACTION: Chaals to work with Brian and Léonie, with discussion in TF but telling the rest of the world about tab panels.

15:34:36 Question: Are you able to functionally use webex
15:35:39 Q+
15:35:46 CMN: Seems like I am the one who cannot make webex work.
15:36:11 JB: There are accessibility issues it seems. Please capture those if you run into them.
15:36:24 ack jf
15:36:32 web rtc?
15:36:36 liam, you wanted to ask if anyone has not tried webex
15:36:52 JF: Haven't used it yet directly. Dial-in audio is poor.
15:37:07 [poor audio fro phones is a known issue]
15:37:16 FWIW, I regularly have to dial in to webex and the audio seems acceptable to me
15:37:18 ack li
15:37:39 LQ: We have some influence over configuration, but do not own our setup
15:37:53 JB: We also have access to Cisco who are interested in improving accessibility.
15:38:07 JS: Improving PSTN codecs would be helpful in particular.
