- JS: And it's tentatively accepted as part of the spec, though it's still an editor's draft.
- 19:17:41 [joanie]
- JS: Assuming it stays, we need to figure out how it's mapped.

- 19:31:41 [joanie]
- CS: I've not yet read the spec text, but there may be some issues.
- 19:31:52 [joanie]
- JS: I think there will be some further discussion about this.
- 19:32:05 [joanie]
- JS: Dominic is in favor of this, as is Rich.
- 19:32:25 [joanie]
- JS: James Craig started out against it. The last thing I read, he seemed like he was on the fence.
- 19:32:34 [joanie]

- 19:33:23 [joanie]
- JS: This is a heads-up.
- 19:33:40 [joanie]
- JS: The stuff related to grid and table is no longer relevant.
- 19:34:03 [joanie]
- JS: But there is still some interest in having this property for other elements as a way to communicate "hands off" to ATs.
- 19:34:10 [joanie]
- JS: But we need spec text before we can map it.
- 19:34:21 [joanie]
- JS: James N is working on this text.
- 19:34:30 [joanie]

- 19:39:06 [joanie]

- 19:39:58 [clown]
- JD: Having deja vu that we already talked about this.
- 19:40:20 [clown]
- JD: The URL above documents the loclaized name.
- 19:40:45 [clown]
- JD: It takes the name of the object and localizes it, not the role name.
- 19:41:34 [clown]
- JS: I may have mis-scribed.
- 19:41:56 [clown]
- JD: It takes a role like ATK_ROLE_CHECKBOX...
- 19:42:11 [clown]
- JD: And asks the UA for the localized name of that.
- 19:43:21 [joanie]
- <button aria-roledescription="Attach a file button">Foo!</button>
- 19:45:22 [clown]
- CS: It's similar to UIA's localized control type, which is up to the developer.
- 19:45:31 [clown]
- CS: And Apple has something similar.
- 19:45:50 [clown]
- CS: While I have misgivings, I think it's something that is needed.
- 19:46:50 [clown]
- JD: Take a look at the example in the spec for the "slide" description.
- 19:46:58 [clown]
- JD: That's being used for a role of "region".
- 19:47:10 [clown]
- JD: Does that mean that all regions are now slides?
- 19:47:36 [clown]
- JD: No. So the role description is associated with the element in question, not a particular role.
- 19:48:11 [clown]
- JD: Hence, the ATK role-get-localized-name() doesn't apply since that works with an ATK role.
- 19:48:35 [clown]
- JS: I get it. Okay, then we can't use ATK's role-get-localized-name() function.

- JD: I'm looking at IA2 now, and see if I can get a link to get extended role.
- 19:49:20 [joanie]
- JD: I *think* the API above might be appropriate for IA2.
- 19:51:35 [joanie]
- JD: So in answer to your original question, Joseph, I'm not sure if IA2 has a need for an object attribute.
- 19:52:44 [joanie]
- JD: As a result, I may need to check with Alex Surkov and James Teh.
- 19:52:55 [joanie]
- JS: Ok, I'll update the due date to next week so you can do that.

- 19:54:42 [clown]
- https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=28816
- 19:55:23 [joanie]
- JS: To summarize things, Jason Kiss pointed out a list of ARIA roles which he noticed there was no explicit mapping in the spec.
- 19:55:32 [joanie]
- JS: He thinks there should be official roles.
- 19:55:37 [clown]
- https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=28816#c16
- 19:55:38 [joanie]
- JS: It's bounced back and forth.
- 19:56:09 [joanie]
- JS: (Reads from comment 16 of above URL)
- 19:56:26 [joanie]
- JS: Alex is saying, use the role itself for the role property.
- 19:56:41 [joanie]
- JS: And then expose it via xml-roles property.
- 19:56:55 [joanie]
- CS: But that's not how ARIA works. We can talk about that for ARIA 2.0.
- 19:57:25 [joanie]
- CS: This issue was dealt with in a meeting between HTML and ARIA in/around 2004 or 2005.
- 19:57:55 [joanie]
- CS: This is the implicit semantics and strong native semantics. It's covered in both the HTML and ARIA specs.
- 19:58:07 [clown]
- http://w3c.github.io/aria/aria/aria.html#host_languages
- 19:58:14 [joanie]
- CS: ARIA wins, except for several special cases which were discussed at the meeting in 2004/2005.
- 19:58:25 [joanie]

- 20:02:04 [joanie]
- CS: It's covered in length in both.
- 20:02:18 [joanie]
- CS: I'm fine with opening this up for Web Apps, WAPA, ARIA 2.0.
- 20:02:26 [joanie]
- CS: But for ARIA 1.x it's decided.
- 20:02:37 [joanie]
- JS: Does that mean what Alex is saying and Firefox is doing is wrong?
- 20:03:13 [joanie]
- JS: If you use role="banner", if you use it with a table element, the role is table.
- 20:03:26 [joanie]
- JS: So they're defining the accessibility role based on the element.
- 20:03:37 [joanie]
- CS: I think that's incorrect.
- 20:03:57 [joanie]
- CS: What we do is map it to group and then expose it via localized role attribute.
- 20:04:03 [clown]
- <table role="banner">
- 20:04:38 [joanie]
