Topic: wiki update
13:32:57 [Sharron]
Shawn: Did anyone notice that W3C systems changed the wiki. In my case, my preferences changed. It dropped me from the watch list. If you have pages on watch, you might want to look at that. Any questions about how that works?
13:33:18 [Sharron]
...I would encourage everyone to put pages that interest you on the watch list.
13:33:26 [Zakim]
+Andrew
13:33:37 [Sharron]
...also, the visual design was a bit different.
13:34:01 [yatil]
Blockquote CSS is missing which is very unfortunate…
13:34:11 [Sharron]
AnnaBelle: I noticed the change and mostly since it was unexpected, I was a bit disoriented. But now I am thinking it may actually be a bit easier to read.
13:34:30 [Sharron]
Shawn: We may tweek the CSS
13:34:36 [Sharron]
Paul: The text editor changed
13:34:59 [Sharron]
Shawn: Yes, I am going to look at how to make it work a bit better for us.
13:35:10 [Sharron]
...let me know if anyone wants to help with that

13:36:14 [Sharron]
AnnaBelle: A few things have happened in the last week. I went through all the illustrations, the text holders, and the places where we needed palce holders

13:36:58 [Sharron]
...I out all of those into the wiki. Then we had a call on Wed trying to figure out what to do next and who will do them.
13:37:33 [Sharron]
...Shawn will do the code, Andrew will do the captions, I will do the images other than the IE WAT images, which Vicki will do.
13:37:40 [AnnaBelle]
https://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/wiki/Easy_Checks_-_Illustrations#Strategy
13:37:41 [Sharron]
...we did another change to the strategies
13:38:05 [Zakim]
+Anthony
13:38:28 [Sharron]
...We decided to use null alt text since all of the images are explained in the text and some will have captions if needed. Denis noted that change and agreed with it.
13:38:48 [Sharron]
Sharron: Only want to add that AB is awesoem for leading on this
13:39:06 [Andrew]
s/awesoem /awesome
13:39:11 [Sharron]
Shawn: I am glad that Vicki has responded so well. She may be able to do more.
13:40:16 [Sharron]
AnnaBelle: She is very responsive to feedback and we are working well together. Next check in with more will be MOnday or Tuesday of next week. I think they are in good shape. There is a bit of work, but it seems do-able
13:41:08 [Sharron]
Sharron: Does tha mean that we should go ahead and plan for the usability testing at CSUN?
13:41:21 [Sharron]
Shawn: Yes we have a place to do that in the wiki
13:41:25 [shawn]
Put thoughts on UT at https://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/wiki/Easy_Checks#Usability_Testing
13:42:15 [Sharron]
Shawn: And we have a couple of comments and suggested wording tweek from Eric. Andrew, you have a related action, can you get to that?
13:42:53 [Sharron]
...Paul, I see you added the Mac stuff here. Let's talk about that next week.
13:43:10 [Sharron]
Paul: Yes, I was disappointed that there is so much to do
13:43:34 [Sharron]
Shawn: Since we just got this and haven't had time to review, we will discuss next week.

s/and I will ask Helle and Sylvie/Helle and Sylvie would be good/
13:52:09 [Sharron]
Sharron: Are they communicating well enough the fact that it is a methodology, not a how-to. On first reading you often wish for more detail.
13:52:45 [Sharron]
Shawn: Will update wiki page and put a place for that
13:52:49 [Zakim]
-Andrew
13:53:27 [Andrew]

13:59:26 [Zakim]
+Andrew
13:59:58 [Sharron]
Shawn: That's all on today's agenda, let's chack in with a work plan for next week. There are several documents to review, Paul and Andrew will be doing that. AnnaBelle and Vicki will be working on the illustrations. Next week or the week after we will ahve the tutorials schedule...so I propose that we close early today so people can use this time so the group participants can catch up on actions
13:59:58 [Sharron]
and get the slate cleared for next month when we have lots to do with review tutorials
14:00:55 [Sharron]
...Eric has been working on the visual design for the overall tutorials. We want also to get the Images Tutorial out (several other groups want that as well)
14:01:10 [Sharron]
...anything else for today?
14:01:33 [Sharron]
AnnaBelle: Just thanks to all who are helping with the illustrations
14:01:53 [Sharron]
Shawn: It's great to have your leadership on this AB!
14:02:39 [Sharron]
...we will be looking at what is the next focus for the group as we wrap up EasyChecks. WAI-ACT Project includes an implementation plan, Vicki had started some work on that
14:03:06 [Sharron]
Sharron: Timing will be good to look at various projects at CSUN
14:04:21 [Sharron]
Shawn: Yes, when we talk as a group about the agenda, it would be useful to know who will be there at what times. Does anyone have concerns about putting who will be there on which day on the agenda?
14:06:09 [Sharron]
...generally F2F meetings are open to active participants, we can also use the time as an outreach effort as well. So think about whether we want to encourage participation from new members.
