- Shadi: Claudia and her team are on the phone to discuss issues that were represented. Disability icons and where are the people? We agreed not to show real people, these are animated vidoes. We decided last week, these are quite different from Perspectives - not to try to make animations of facial expressions. Not emphasizing empathy, more to give an overview of what is in the resource and allow
- 12:37:58 [Sharron]
- people to decide if they want to explore further.
- 12:39:36 [Sharron]
- Shadi: There is a zip file with the png files, one is called Pawns. Some suggested icons, early thoughts.
- 12:39:48 [Sharron]

- Kevin:
- 12:43:09 [Sharron]
- Kevin: Five for me is OK, the others don't really work. A couple other ones in the link you sent that seem to have more substance
- 12:44:00 [shawn]
- we can have ones with different body types ;-)
- 12:44:14 [Sharron]

- 12:45:54 [shawn]
- +1 to the one Kevin picked as being better
- 12:46:04 [Estella]
- +1 to Kevin instead of 5 I think it is a proportion issue between head and body
- 12:46:14 [Jenn]
- +1 to Kevin's icon suggestion
- 12:46:36 [shawn]
- s/Kevin picked as being better/Kevin picked as being better (maybe with taller body)
- 12:46:40 [Sharron]
- Brent: I agree that #5 looks like an enlarged eye symbol. #3 and #4 do not look like or connote the idea of people. Too abstract. #2 looks like a baby.
- 12:47:13 [Sharron]
- ...I like Kevin's suggestion and there is another one on the page that is a bit less gender specific
- 12:47:15 [Howard]
- Is there a link to the icons you are discussing?

- +1 to Brent also in terms of gender
- 12:49:12 [Jenn]
- +1 for Brent's variation on Kevin's. Both good
- 12:49:29 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Seems that most could live with #5 bit much support for the Dude icon suggested by Kevin. There seems to be encouragment to continue to explore. Any strong feelings or shall we send the comments to Claudia to decide?
- 12:49:57 [Sharron]
- Vicki: I am more in the direction of Kevin's suggested but...(inaudible)
- 12:51:10 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Do we pick one based on strong preference or provide this feedback and direction to Claudia for final determination?

- 12:52:40 [shawn]
- +1 for Claudia team to go in the direction of the 3 in comments.
- 12:52:48 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Claudia, do you have enough direction here, any questions for the group?
- 12:53:02 [Brent]
- +1 for Claudia's team to work with the feedback.
- 12:53:02 [Sharron]
- Claudia: Yes I think I can take it from here.
- 12:54:08 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Open file in zip folder - disabiltiy icons. You will see a computer monitor and other icons around it.
- 12:55:38 [Jenn]
- Apologies, I was late to join IRC. I can't access the link to the file folder. Would you mind reposting?

- ack kwhite
- 12:56:13 [Zakim]
- kwhite, you wanted to ask what the speaker one is for?
- 12:57:01 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Icons are meant to represent disabilities of various kinds without the traditional wheelchair image, more specific to differnet disabilities.
- 12:57:05 [Howard]
- agree speaker is to vague
- 12:57:18 [Vicki]
- +1 kevin
- 12:57:23 [mpalmer]
- Speaker icon seems confusing and overlaps with deaf and hard of hearing icon
- 12:57:25 [Sharron]
- Kevin: The speaker image seems obscure, is there an alternative?
- 12:57:30 [Vicki]
- maybe
- 12:57:34 [Sharron]
- Howard: agree it is vague.
- 12:57:37 [shawn]

- 12:57:58 [Sharron]
- Shadi: What if it were replaced by a mouth?
- 12:58:05 [mpalmer]
- +1 to the mouth icon
- 12:58:13 [Sharron]
- Howard: Yes it might.
- 12:58:40 [Sharron]
- Sharron: You mentioned a speech bubble, I kind of like that idea.
- 12:58:53 [Brent]
- ack shawn
- 12:59:06 [Sharron]
- Shawn: I also saw one that was a face in profile with speech waves coming out.
- 13:01:16 [Sharron]
- Sharron: I like this direction to the face with speaker waves
- 13:01:19 [Lewis]
- +1 for Kevin's last suggestion
- 13:01:53 [Howard]
- +1 to Kevin's last url
- 13:02:36 [mpalmer]
- +1 for the concept in Kevin's suggestion. Hairstyle would be my only concern.
- 13:02:46 [mpalmer]
- In terms of being non-gender specific I mean
- 13:03:08 [Vicki]
- +1
- 13:03:10 [Jenn]
- Kevin's first suggestion looks like a female with waves symoblic of speech or communication. The second suggestion is more playful, with a male face and speech is more like an exclamation, a shout. Less serious.
- 13:03:12 [Brent]
- q?
- 13:03:52 [Vicki]
- thank goodness it's a joke!
- 13:03:59 [Jenn]

- 13:06:24 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Seems to be a preference to the head profile with sound waves. Thanks all. Claudia is that enough guidance?
- 13:06:38 [Sharron]
- Claudia: Yes absolutely fine.
- 13:06:42 [Jenn]
- +1 to the head with speech waves. I like Vicki's suggestion.
- 13:06:44 [Estella]
- Maybe use the same icon as the first and add the waves instead of the brain
- 13:07:00 [kwhite]
- +1 to Estella's idea
- 13:08:22 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Any comments on any of the other icons in this set?
- 13:09:25 [Vicki]
- +1 cognitive, but agree with Sharon maybe curve just the bottom
- 13:09:45 [Howard]
- Maybe looks for better brain icon
- 13:10:15 [Sharron]
- Shawn: Brain looks wierd, face looks male.
- 13:10:16 [Vicki]
- ATTENTION SHADI
- 13:10:31 [Howard]
- Some examples, no joke: https://www.google.com/search?q=head+with+brain+icon&rlz=1C1CHFX_enUS664US664&oq=head+with+brain+icon&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l2.4508j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
- 13:11:16 [Jenn]
- +1 for Howard's brain icon suggestions. More realistic brain insides
- 13:12:23 [Sharron]
- Claudia: I understand the issue of the brain shape but not how to address the male aspect, since it seems to be a matter of not having hair.
- 13:14:56 [kwhite]

- 13:19:14 [Estella]
- Ok for me
- 13:19:15 [Sharron]
- Shawn: These icons do not represent disability, they are meant to represent abilities. Along that line, it would be most simple to leave the eye simple and not try to indicate a cross out or impaired.
- 13:19:25 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Is this OK with you Estella?
- 13:19:33 [Vicki]

- 13:19:48 [Lewis]
- +1 ear
- 13:19:56 [Brent]
- For the ear, just work on the internal lines a bit. So they are more realistic.

- 13:25:05 [Sharron]
- Brent: if it is an offensice gesture in one culture, does the context mediate?
- 13:25:07 [Vicki]
- Not 100% convinced with the icon but I have no other ideas :(

- KrisAnne: Over arching comment about icons which we seem to be using quite a bit. My understanding of icons was to be a visual guide useful to people with cognitive disability that are consistent throughoout the resource. We seem to be re-inventing icons for each resource. Can we not re-use some of these?
- 13:31:20 [Sharron]
- Sharron: +1 to KrisAnne
- 13:31:49 [Sharron]

- +1 to common library as well
- 13:33:53 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Survey will be open later today so you can review and fully confirm video scripts, it will be an approval of how comments were integrated.

- 13:50:34 [Sharron]
- ...do we all agree that accessibility reduces development cost? There is an argument in my opinion that costs are reduced in the long term but may not be reduced during initial development. How do we want to talk about this?

- q?
- 13:50:45 [dmontalvo_]
- ack how
- 13:52:08 [Sharron]
- Howard: I do not think the resource says that it reduces development costs. I usually hear it said that if you address accessibility at the outset, it reduces long term cost.
- 13:52:25 [Sharron]
- ...not sure if there are studies or if it is anecdotal.
- 13:53:00 [Sharron]
- Daniel: Yes reduces maintenance and remediation.

- wording from current business case: "A Forrester Research Economic Impact Study commissioned by Microsoft concluded that accessibility could contribute to cost savings when it is integrated into existing and ongoing development cycles. 19 Technology updates and redesigns that include accessibility along with other best practices have demonstrated reduced costs for maintenance and service."
- 13:54:35 [shadi]
- q+
- 13:54:37 [Sharron]
- Brent: Based on previous version where it said more clearly that a11y would reduce development time, but you have made a change thaat seems more accurate addressing remediation.
- 13:55:07 [dmontalvo_]
- ack shadi
- 13:55:47 [Sharron]
- Shadi: It occurs that we might be speaking about interrelated things. First is the assumption that yu want to do accessiiblity. Then doing it sooner is more effeiciant that later.
- 13:56:25 [Sharron]
- ...the other is that if you have more accessible, structured site it is more easier to maintain. Related arguments.
- 13:57:37 [Sharron]
- ...the third was that including accessibility does not in fact reduce developemnt time if you do not have to do it. Maybe rephrasing to include all of the assumptions. If you are sommitted to accessiiblity, earlier is better.

- * I have another meeting. Thanks and hope you're all well.
- 14:00:19 [Sharron]
- Shawn: Not sure what you mean about remediation. If it means making it accessible, then you can't say that, it is a cyclical arguemnt.
- 14:00:43 [Sharron]
- Daniel: Trying to say, if you are going to do it anywhay, best to do it early.
- 14:02:24 [Sharron]
- Shadi: Yes, and the question is does it belong under broader benefits? if you want to implement accessibility it is better to do it earlier. But a broader question is - does the structure of accessible development practice itself reduce long term maintenence costs?
- 14:02:59 [Sharron]
- Brent: My main concern was to the statement that accessiiblity will reduce development time - it does not do that.
- 14:03:16 [shawn]
- [ /me thinks "doing accessibility early" is beyond the scope of this business case topic. ]

- Shawn: My thought was to be related to the biz case - there are laws, here's the list, it could be costly. Rather than exploring anti-discrimination law, etc that could be interpretted as an advocacy position.

- Kevin: The challenge is that we want to help people create a business case and why it is compelling. There is a risk that in "just tell them about the laws" without telling them the rationale runs the risk that in meeting it they will only turn the handle on it without understanding why. It is a fine line.

- Shadi: Strongly support that and counter the arguement that we need to minimize. People want to know what is the legal aspect and how it can impact them. How does the law relate to their business and the standards. So I think yes, we should have a curriculum that allows exploration of laws and specific consequences and allows in depth exploration.

- Shawn: I did not mean to say that we would not get into the leagal aspects. More of the relationship of the technical aspect to the law. It seems a bit stretching scope to have it as one of three major points.

- 14:23:26 [Sharron]
- Shawn: We want to do more to be sure people find this resource when they are looking for making podcasts, viseo blogs, etc more accessible. So far, it does not come up high on the search results.
- 14:26:02 [shawn]
- Sharron: EOWG is connected. "All y'all" help people find out about this resource. e.g., if you know organizations that might be interested in linking to this resource. If you have connections...

- ...Sharron will ask for links from places that don't have a WAI relationship. Also thought that if you add comments to the wiki page to track where we post
- 14:26:26 [shawn]
- ... or write a blog post about it, etc.
- 14:26:48 [Sharron]
- Brent: Want to encourage people to do outreach, focus on key resources.
- 14:27:03 [Sharron]
