IAccessible2 SIG Conference Call Minutes 2008/06/17

1. Regrets: none
2. Attendees: Pete Brunet, Mick Curran, Mike Squillace, Jamie Teh
3. Last meeting minutes - approved
4. AccProbe - Mike Squillace
   • 0.4.1 targeted for July 7.
   • Mike asks that people use it and open bugs for bugs not in the current list of AccProbe bugs.
5. Firefox
   • FF3 was released today.
6. IA2 version 1.0.2 RFC readiness:
   • The spec has been posted for review. Please see the links at the top of the IA2 home page.
   • Only one small issue so far.
7. IA2 object attributes
   • Jamie has asked Mozilla to rename the "formating" attribute to "display" and instead of just using the value "block", also use the full set of CSS2 values.
   • There has been some resistance from the Mozilla team, but IA2 should use the CSS terminology even if Mozilla doesn't.
8. Old NVDA items
   • Last year NVDA raised some issues which really are larger ATK/IA2 issues. These issues were raised via the Open A11y group in January. These should be reopened and discussed with Willie and Li Yuan at a call convenient to the US, China, and Australia.
9. IAccessibleRevisionText
   • Pending review by the AIA prior to Li Yuan's implementation.
10. New interface for OpenOffice for smart tags, spelling errors, and grammar errors.
    • Xing Li described how Lotus Symphony uses IAHypertext/link for smart tags. Further discussion is needed to see if that will also work for spelling and grammar errors.
