Meeting minutes

open agendum

janina: We agreed to issue a CfC - open until Oct 21

janina: We wanted to get this out so we can get comments over our meeting break

janina: We want to elicit lots of comments, which is why we are publishing now

<Lionel_Wolberger> The text:

<Lionel_Wolberger> One known area where feedback is needed and expected is how collaboration tools can support people with cognitive and learning disability.

<Lionel_Wolberger> The W3C Cognitive and Learning disability taskforce (COGA) is actively reviewing this draft, and is expected to provide feedback for incorporation in a future draft of this document based on their work in this area. An early view of COGA input to this document is available at [URI of wiki page].

janina: APA expects consensus, but non unanimous agreement

janina: We still don't have many votes at all, and need more positive notes

scott_h: We really need more information for improving the current draft, so I think publishing what we have so far and eliciting more comments is good

Lionel_Wolberger: It doesn't seem as though the feedback thus far is against publishing, just that more comments are needed

janina: That may not be completely true

janina: There are different opinions among some groups as to when documents should be published -- some groups like APA encourage frequent updating of documents

<Lionel_Wolberger> +1 to Janina's clarifying the different publication philosophies between APA and AGWG.

janina: This is why we encourage prepublication input

janina: AGWG promotes a stricter control philosophy on publication of documents, as opposed to APA; so some conflicts occur at times based on these differing publication philosophy

scott_h: We have found that Google Docs is hard to use in Windows, but better on iOS with VoiceOver

janina: We could create a snapshot in GitHub and replicate that in Google Docs and get comments from both

janina: Some concerns about needing the same structure in Google Docs as we do in GitHub

scott_h: Support looking at the Google Docs snapshot concept as a possibility

janina: This seems a reasonable path formward

janina: We need to get up to speed on this technology

janina: We asked where we should start reading

janina: have not been given a good starting point so far

Lionel_Wolberger: Commercial providers may have requirements that we can review

janina: Perhaps we can just try out some of these digital wallets and see what access issues are found

janina: Not only do we want to see how digital wallets are currently implemented, but look at how personal accessibility settings propagate into other environments

<Raja_Kushalnagar> Do you have a good meta review article on digital wallets?

<Lionel_Wolberger> A sample provider of a DID and Verifiable Credential wallet, https://www.dock.io/post/verifiable-credentials

janina: another area is to have it become a provider of documents such as a power of attorney - how to move these from paper documents to accessible digital wallets

janina: Question to Raja about background information on having recorded (audio, video) documents counting legally as valid

<Lionel_Wolberger> +1 to wallet accessibility

Raja_Kushalnagar: Yes...will send out something about this

scott_h: Next week is out last actual meeting

scott_h: No meetings in November or December

scott_h: Starting January 5 we resume the same Wednesday schedule as before

janina: A lot of what we look at is academic research, which is often behind paywalls

scott_h: I have access to journals, so will continue to be able to access these

scott_h: It is just mostly that there have not been a lot of articles published which go beyond blindness accessibility issues

scott_h: Have confidence in our process thus far

janina: Another source for background terminology is to look at the FAST docuement

I also have access to journals, but it is mostly the time issue; but I do hope to have more time in the next few months
