  • If you have assigned yourself an issue, be prepared to give a brief status during the meeting and when you expect to complete the work, if you’ve got any blockers, or need any help. This will help me plan for upcoming meetings where content might be ready to send to the task force for review.

Preparation for the 1 December meeting

Preparation for the 17 November meeting

  • Complete the survey Initial look at proposals to gather your initial thoughts on proposed content. Simply read the content and document your thoughts in the survey. This is not final material, but we want to do an initial gut-check on the content before we write notes and have a detailed review.
  • Due on Dec 1: survey Review proposed changes to guidelines (try to complete earlier, if possible)

Preparation for the 10 November meeting

  • Look at the WCAG 2.1 items list in the WCAG2ICT project. This contains issues for ushering new success criteria from WCAG 2.1 into the document. Help me spread the work by choosing a success criteria to use the template on and start working to create the proposed content using the template. For the one you choose, add yourself as the assignee.

Preparation for the 3 November meeting

  • Complete the Discussions poll: Weigh in on possible new sections to add
  • Familiarize yourself with the Wiki Template for adding new success criteria to the WCAG2ICT document. This template can either be copied to a new Wiki Page, by editing the template and copying the GitHub markup content of the page. Then either paste the markup into a new WIKI page you created or into a comment in the issue you plan to work on. If we all want to have the template in the issue, I can boilerplate this into each issue to help things move more quickly.

Preparation for 27 October meeting

  • Make sure you have the ability to create a branch/make edits in GitHub.

Preparation for 20 October meeting

Get set up to practice using GitHub.

    • Windows, MacOS, or Apple silicon Mac: Download & install the corresponding version of GitHub Desktop
      • Go to the GitHub WCAG2ICT repository
      • Use the Code dropdown to and then activate Open with GitHub Desktop to open the WCAG2ICT main branch
      • If you don't have the code cloned on your machine yet, you'll get a prompt to do that. So make sure you do clone (make a copy of) the code onto your computer.
    • Download & install a source code editor. This is up to your preference, but your co-facilitators use the following:
  • Or use the web interface for editing in GitHub. There won't be prep for you.

Preparation for 13 October meeting

Intro to GitHub:

  • Be prepared with your GitHub ID and password. We're going to log in and try some features out.
  • Read the GitHub instructions. During the meeting I'll demo these features live.
  • Think of any questions you have. I'll go further into GitHub features if things are clear.

Preparation for 6 October meeting

Goal: Reach consensus on all sections of the work statement during the meeting. NOTE: Any Scope of Work section changes agreed upon during this meeting will be added to the PR and incorporated into the document.

  • Contribute to 3 email threads regarding Work Statement Survey Question 2: Scope of Work. My original note contained all three topics which Gregg split into three discussion threads at: public-wcag2ict-tf archives
    • Whether or not to include Level AAA criteria in WCAG2ICT
    • Definition of non-web ICT covered by the WCAG2ICT Note
    • Publish WCAG2ICT as a W3C Statement instead of a WG Note?
  • Review updates to Pull Request 2682 to address comments received on all survey questions except Question 2: Scope of Work.
  • Review comments from the Work Statement survey to prepare for discussion
  • Gather thoughts on preferred collaboration tools (e.g. W3C's typical document development in GitHub, Google Docs, Microsoft Word, GitHub wiki). Be ready to express what you are comfortable with or if you are willing to attend training on GitHub and work there using basic HTML markup. If we can converge on a tool, we will; if that's not possible, it helps the chairs understand the level of coordination that might be needed to ensure everyone has the best Task Force work environment.
