janina: Numbers and strings of digits: Phone numbers are the best example, they are read as numbers
… e.g. 800-5555555 might be read as eight hundred, five million 5 hundred 55 thousand, 5 hundred and 55.
… edge technology could somehow cause such a number to be more intelligible
janina: There is some support in SSML
Lionel_Wolberger: This is aspirational, as it would be very difficult to implement today
Bev: +1
Acronym expansion
Lionel_Wolberger: This is very similar to 5.11.1 Dictionary on Demand
janina: It's more than a dictionary lookup, take for example CD
… compact disk, certifice of deposit? Candela?
… AI could read the adjacent text and context and provide the fully spelled out name
Lionel_Wolberger: Same problem as the above digits, I do not see how the page would encode this information for the screen reader to pick up
Lionel_Wolberger: This is aspirational
Post-source as a descriptive term for 'accessibility at the edge'
Lionel_Wolberger: I find the term "post source" does work well, once context is provided.
janina: I propose incorporating it in a descriptive section
… e.g., the introduction
<BC> +1 Research related features
Looking at WCAG to find what we may have missed
Link, https://
janina: WCAG 2.2 1.1.1, Non-text content, is an Edge capability thanks to AI
Lionel_Wolberger: We have it in the capabilities doc under 3.1.1 Image Alternative Text Provisioning
janina: The mention in capabilities could cross-link to WCAGhttps://
<BC> WCAG 3
WCAG 3.0
janina: I propose we link to WCAG 3.0
Lionel_Wolberger: I am concerned it will still change quite a bit and such links will be brittle
<BC> too early to know
janina: It may not change that much, and Edge Capabilities has a big overlap
+1 to 'too early to know'
WCAG 2.2, Guideline 1.2 Time-based Media: Provide alternatives for time-based media.
<BC> screen reader, closed captions
janina: This is now common for the edge to provide close captions
… it is aspirational that AI could provide some audio description
