    OASIS ODF Accessibility SC Minutes
from Thursday May 4, 2006 Meeting
    by Nathaniel Borenstein and Peter
Korn

    [Please send any corrections
or additions to Nathaniel.]

    Attending:  Nathaniel Borenstein
(chair), Chieko Asakawa, Pete Brunet, David Clark, Peter Korn, Steve Nobel,
Janina Sajka, Rich Schwerdtfeger, Hironobu Takagi, Malte Timmermann

    Apologies:  Dave Pawson
    

    I.  The minutes of the April
27 meeting were approved as corrected and submitted.

    
II.  Tables in presentations:  Peter summarized his e-mail about
Tables.  Discussion centered on implementation issues; no action items

    
III.  Rich's ALT text proposal.  Discussed reference to transcoding
for import/export for Microsoft, decided to draw this to the attention
of the TC and let them decide whether to leave it in.  We still need
an implementer's guide.  We appear on track for inclusion in ODF 1.1,
proposed draft available in July for OASIS resolution by November.  Action
item:  Nathaniel to add schema description, send to parent TC.

    
IV.  Announcement:  ODF 1.0 is now an ISO standard (a11y warts
and all).  So now folks like the EU can specify an ISO standard for
office documents. Vote was unanimous [save abstentions], and more countries
voted than expected.  No action items.

    
V.  Janina conveyed two bits of news from ITD: they published an RFI
looking for submissions from companies, whatever about creating a plug-in
module for MS-Office to read/save ODF.  They've also come up with
Accessibility Czar - Joe Lazzaro is moving over to ITD from the Mass Commission
to run that.  No action items.
    

    VI.  Discussion of Chieko's
proposal for tabindexing to improve keyboard navigation tabled until upcoming
face-to-face meeting.  Action item:  Chieko to prepare tabindexing
proposal prior to F2F meeting.

    VI.  Role attribute review:
 Rich will take this to the FSG.  No action items.

    
VII.  Agenda for upcoming (May 20-21) face-to-face meeting:
            --
Table proposal review
            --
Tabindexing for keyboard navigation
            --
