It's going to be the standard. Thread is the low-level standard for transmission. 15:07:43 ... WoT is sort of a competitor to Matter 15:08:12 janina: it's from a separate organization but it might be helpful to the problems we've identified we call "middleware" 15:08:57 ... aggregation technology should be helped by it 15:09:29 Gottfried: I haven't looked into Matter in depth, the issues remain the same but the technology has advanced and industry seems ready to collaborate 15:09:46 q? 15:09:50 ... I think the Matter standards is just a roof on the other standards 15:10:05 ... to allow better interop 15:10:19 ... do we plan to talk to Matter experts or WoT developers? 15:10:54 janina: I think we should take our concerns to WoT as the experts we've worked with before 15:11:20 ... we can ask them to clarify or to have a joint meeting on our concerns 15:11:32 Gottfried: I still see this as a competitor standard 15:11:45 ... I don't think there's space for two 15:12:04 q? 15:12:15 Gottfried: I support talking to WoT as they probably have a better idea of how they stand compared to Matter 15:13:22 q? 15:13:51 Gottfried: I'm thinking about how you find devices in public spaces which is mostly neglected by developers 15:14:01 ... which affects accessibility 15:14:19 janina: I'll take an action to send a note to them 15:15:38 niklasegger: I agree that Matter could be the "winner" here after doing some research. Security is a big reason for it. 15:16:04 Gottfried: it could get extended to work in public spaces 15:16:29 q? 15:17:06 Lionel_Wolberger: I would add that Meta has an unsolved problem to present the data of the environment around us 15:17:39 ... WoT will mean actual physical interaction in space not just "I see WiFi near me" 15:19:12 zakim, close this item 15:19:12 agendum 9 closed 15:19:13 I see 11 items remaining on the agenda; the next one is 15:19:13 1. Agenda Review & Announcements [from janina] 15:19:15 zakim, take up item 8 15:19:15 agendum 8 -- CSS Update (Paul) https://github.com/w3c/css-a11y/issues -- taken up [from janina] 15:19:32 scribe+ matatk 15:19:37 https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/7761 15:20:08 PaulG: This is how outline style differs across browsers due to a fuzzy part of the spec. This can affect the focus ring. 15:21:22 ... The group resolved to change the spec: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/7761#issuecomment-1440512109 15:21:45 q? 15:21:47 ... This doesn't conflict with anything in WCAG. They've done research to ensure it won't break accessibility. Should be more consistent across UAs as a result. 15:22:42 ... There will be more debate on this as UAs implement it, but the change is due to happen. 15:22:48 rrsagent, make minutes 15:22:49 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2023/03/01-apa-minutes.html matatk 15:23:23 zakim, next item 15:23:23 agendum 1 -- Agenda Review & Announcements -- taken up [from janina] 15:23:40 agenda? 15:23:46 zakim, drop item 1 15:23:46 agendum 1, Agenda Review & Announcements, dropped 15:23:48 zakim, next item 15:23:48 agendum 3 -- APA Charter CfC Reminder https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa-admin/2023Feb/0025.html -- taken up [from janina] 15:23:59 zakim, drop item 3 15:23:59 agendum 3, APA Charter CfC Reminder https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa-admin/2023Feb/0025.html, dropped 15:24:00 zakim, next item 15:24:01 agendum 4 -- New Charters Review https://github.com/w3c/strategy/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22Horizontal+review+requested%22 -- taken up [from janina] 15:24:14 subtopic: Media Working Group Rechartering 15:24:16 - charter: https://w3c.github.io/charter-media-wg/ 15:25:00 Roy: The charter mentions accessibility and APA. 15:25:13 matatk: I like this part "Each specification should contain a section on accessibility that describes..." :-) 15:26:23 janina: We've had a long and good relationship with this group, going back to HTML5 developent. 15:26:29 Roy: They noted the FAST, too. 15:26:33 janina: I have no concerns; others? 15:26:41 +1 great that the FAST is explicitly listed 15:27:19 zakim, next item 15:27:19 agendum 5 -- Explicit Review Requests https://github.com/w3c/a11y-request/issues -- taken up [from janina] 15:27:27 subtopic: Digital Publishing WAI-ARIA Module 1.1 and Digital Publishing Accessibility API Mappings 1.1 15:27:28 - issue: https://github.com/w3c/a11y-request/issues/55 15:27:28 - URL of spec: 15:27:28 - https://www.w3.org/TR/2023/WD-dpub-aria-1.1-20230222/ 15:27:28 - https://www.w3.org/TR/2023/WD-dpub-aam-1.1-20230223/ 15:27:34 rrsagent, make minutes 15:27:35 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2023/03/01-apa-minutes.html matatk 15:28:09 Roy: They want to publish these as CR next month. 15:28:40 janina: We are generally OK with these, as we know ARIA knows their stuff, unless anyone wants to dive into these? 15:28:58 ... This is about mapping ARIA semantics into DPUB, and the AAM is about how those mappigns are instantiated across different platforms. 15:29:53 matatk: I'm looking out of interest (relating to the Landmarks extension). 15:32:13 The landmark extension is available at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/landmark-navigation-via-k/ddpokpbjopmeeiiolheejjpkonlkklgp 15:32:26 subtopic: PNG 3rd edition 15:32:26 - TR: https://www.w3.org/TR/2022/WD-png-3-20221025/ 15:32:26 - tracking: https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/wiki/Portable_Network_Graphics_(PNG)_Specification_(Third_Edition) 15:33:36 matatk: Re Landmarks, you can get it for multiple browsers, too: https://matatk.agrip.org.uk/landmarks/ - On Firefox (and Opera) it has a sidebar. 15:34:53 https://github.com/w3c/a11y-request/issues/42 15:35:39 matatk: Wanted to confirm there was a way to do textual metadata (remember our SVG Native review); according to their FAST report, there is: https://github.com/w3c/PNG-spec/issues/228#issuecomment-1279341797 15:35:44 janina: Sounds like we're good with this one. 15:35:50 Roy: Will close 15:35:53 zakim, next item 15:35:55 agendum 6 -- A11y Review Comment Tracker https://w3c.github.io/horizontal-issue-tracker/?repo=w3c/a11y-review -- taken up [from janina] 15:36:10 Roy: Nothing new this week, and nothing on TR this week. 15:36:13 agenda? 15:36:22 zakim, close this item 15:36:22 agendum 6 closed 15:36:23 I see 5 items remaining on the agenda; the next one is 15:36:23 7. new on TR http://www.w3.org/TR/tr-status-drafts.html [from janina] 15:36:25 zakim, drop item 7 15:36:25 agendum 7, new on TR http://www.w3.org/TR/tr-status-drafts.html, dropped 15:36:29 zakim, next item 15:36:29 agendum 10 -- Actions Checkin (Specs) https://www.w3.org/WAI/APA/track/actions/open -- taken up [from janina] 15:40:39 fredrik.fischer@myability.org 15:40:59 matatk: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa/2023Feb/0035.html 15:42:15 matatk: Fredrik's review of EditContext API - https://www.w3.org/TR/edit-context/ 15:42:15 matatk: Sounds overall very good from Fredrik's review, but it lacks an accessibility considerations section. 15:42:46 ... We should ask for one if there's no obvious parent spec? 15:43:52 janina: Fredrik's already written a proposed section; we could just ask them to include that. 15:43:55 matatk: +1 15:45:00 janina: I'm inclined to ask Fredrik to ask the editors of that document to include his proposed section, noting that we're finding it increasingly useful to have these appendices. 15:45:25 janina: Any objections? 15:45:42 Roy: I think we can file an issue in their GitHub repo. This is a FPWD FYI. 15:46:01 janina: +1; thanks Roy 15:46:16 zakim, next item 15:46:16 agendum 11 -- Task Force & Deliverables Updates -- taken up [from janina] 15:46:43 subtopic: Maturity Model 15:47:18 janina: Several new members!
