Agenda: OASIS ODF Accessibility subcommittee call for December 1, 2008

Agenda: OASIS ODF Accessibility subcommittee call for December 1, 2008, Monday at 7am PT / 9am CT / 10am ET / 4pm CET / 12 (midnight Mon-Tues) Japan time. Please use our usual (and unpublished) dial-in, and our usual IRC channel: &office-accessibility at irc.oasis-open.org

Agenda:

1. Approval of minutes from 24Nov08 meeting http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/office-accessibility/email/archives/200811/msg00018.html

2. Radio Button Groups

Rich's proposal to TC: http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/office-accessibility/email/archives/200811/msg00017.html

Bottom line is ODF overloads form:name to address radio groups. form labels can label individual controls and not groups creating problems. The TC has indicated in their specification that for form:name duplicates form:id essentially creating two unique names and suggested that form:name can be removed.

3. Specification related Issues: 

- ACTION: Hiro to post clearly marking whether links are local as an issue to our list and the TC list.

- Use of ARIA concepts to assist ATs in processing dynamic content through added meta data

- Live Regions

- ACTION: Peter to figure out live region exposure in ATK/AT-SPI for use in client apps.

- ISSUE: Should we include live region capabilities and how should we render these? 

- Issue: Should the role attribute be included as part of standard meta data

4. Accessibility Guidelines Actions and Issues

4.1 Issues to Discuss 

- Malte: Provide input on charts backed by disjoint cells:

How does (or how will) OpenOffice provide access to charts backed by disjoint cell ranges either in a single or multiple tables? If this case be done today, what are the examples?
