Announcements

Welcome to Ken Franquerio, new to WAI staff. Ken is working with Kevin on the WCAG repo as well as WAI site.

Alastair, Mike, and Bruce met with Kevin and Ken regarding cleaning up the repo. Expectation is that 2.1 and 2.2 can harmonized. 2.0 predates migration to GitHub and it might not be possible to fully integrate. Deconstructing the current XLST behavior remains a challenge.

We are still ironing out processes for publishing errata material on TR.

That discussion did not leave time on coordination call for time to reviewing Francis' Chore: delete stale branches #3878.

Per usual, working from project board.

For Discussion

Could captions be an alternative for time-based media SC 1.2.1 with audio-only content #3870 Patrick: If a caption is there, but is not displayed, then it's not a caption by definition? Scott: HTML spec recommends linking to transcript. No thumbs down. Mike revised response to note this is response. DetLev: There is a need to flag as a problem for anyone using TRACK element. Might be change to Understanding or a new Technique.

Changes to 1.4.1 Use of Color understanding #1788 DetLev added imaged, which helps greatly. PR overlaps with 1.4.1 Use of color: adding examples to understanding text #3717. Patrick will try to resolve differences.

Remainder of items Sent for WG Approval have several thumbs up.

1.2.3 / 1.2.5 Audio description - right language required? #3873 discussed on AG WG call Tuesday. Consensus on adding notes to understanding documents to state that text alternatives and equivalents should match the human language of the original content.

Cleanup for 2.2 rec #3307 several edits have already been incorporated.

Drafted column

Change <br> to <br/> #3879 -- Due to the XML-based publication pipeline, need to have self-closing <br/>. Otherwise when trying to build locally at least, ant chokes. Francis noted head collision.
