17:16:02 [jamesn]
jg: would like to take another shot at the example based on the current text
17:16:53 [jamesn]
jg: have some ideas how to organize the example so more useful
17:17:02 [jamesn]
jg: will try to get done by friday
17:17:14 [jamesn]
jn: got rid of tables
17:17:37 [jamesn]
jn: removed the section linking to aria spec and just linked the term
17:18:30 [jamesn]
aa: we called it out specifically before
17:19:20 [jamesn]
jn: editorial decision. Doesn't change the text of the document
17:19:29 [jamesn]
jn: need to have the document to be consistent
17:19:54 [jamesn]
tb: how about an intro section.
17:20:15 [jamesn]
jn: assuming anyone reads it
17:22:21 [jamesn]
tb: we have to assume some level of intelligence
17:22:32 [jamesn]
bg: how about changing to banner role
17:23:06 [jamesn]
jg: more concerned about linking from the spec to the APG
17:23:26 [jamesn]
jn: I don't think we can link from the spec to the APG
17:24:19 [jamesn]
tb: sometimes i find too many words loses the crispness of thinks
17:24:25 [jamesn]
s/thinks/things/
17:24:48 [jamesn]
aa: people who are not savvy to w3c things aren't aware that there is a difference between the APG and the spec
17:24:57 [jamesn]
tb: that is an issue beyond this
17:25:11 [jamesn]
tb: a few lines in this document - how to use this docuemnt
17:26:53 [jamesn]
jn: i was wrong about not being able to link to the APG from the spec
17:28:23 [jamesn]
JN: my opinion is that making links to the spec called-out explicitly just makes the document longer and not more clear.
17:28:41 [jamesn]
JG: something like really good examples will get linked to
17:28:51 [jamesn]
JG: most people will come through the examples
17:29:11 [jamesn]
JG: the oaa website can just fwd people to the w3c examples
17:30:57 [jamesn]
JN: removed patterns row heading and moved into prose in the top.
17:31:26 [jamesn]
JN: then added HTML5 techniques and ARIA techniques sub heading
17:33:07 [jamesn]
JN: <making changes live>
17:33:25 [jamesn]
JG: first bullet - Break the page into perceivable areas of content.
17:33:52 [jamesn]
JN: good with that
17:35:55 [jamesn]
agenda?
17:37:11 [jamesn]
TB: what is the value of 2nd bullet
17:37:22 [jamesn]
AA: could help define landmarks?
17:37:29 [jamesn]
TB: I don't know what it means
17:38:33 [Birkir]
.. landmarks are a way to create same division of content programmatically, e.g. for those who are unable to see the visual distinction.
17:38:55 [jamesn]
JG: to me this brings in designers
17:39:16 [jamesn]
JG: we want to not just talk to developers but also designers
17:41:28 [jamesn]
TB: <li>Break the page into perceivable areas of content which typically, designers indicate visually using alignment and spacing.</li>

17:52:34 [jamesn]
