<br />
<br />Topic 1: AT-SPI Port to D-Bus Update
<br />
<br />FOR REFERENCE:
<br /> * contents of AT-SPI on D-Bus Port wiki page (<a href="http://a11y.org/d-bus" target="_blank">http://a11y.org/d-bus</a>)
<br /> last updated 30 October 2009 by Mike Gorse
<br /> * MikeG is maintaining the AT-SPI on D-Bus Port wiki page, and
<br /> will add info about AT-SPI2 development releases to the D-Bus
<br /> wiki page
<br />
<br />Discussion of Topic 1: D-Bus Port Update
<br />
<br /> JS: some concern that haven't had more feedback and debugging
<br />
<br /> JS: goal -- get to LSB (<a href="http://ldn.linuxfoundation.org/lsb" target="_blank">http://ldn.linuxfoundation.org/lsb</a>)
<br />
<br /> MG: what would LSB certification involve?
<br />
<br /> JS: need more testing -- can't fully automate, but ok if partially
<br /> automated, and partially human-checked
<br />
<br /> GJR: Mike, check Linux Foundation's LSB Certification documentation
<br /> <a href="http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Certification" target="_blank">http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Certification</a>
<br />
<br /> JS: who can do such contract work? -- have RNIB funding to continue
<br /> work -- how to go about recruiting?
<br />
<br /> MG: the more resources which can be devoted to the port, the better --
<br /> personally been concentrating on fixing bugs, but still work that
<br /> needs to be done
<br />
<br /> JS: wonder if MikeG willing to be AT-SPI activity lead to coordinate
<br /> such work? (<a href="http://a11y.org/at-spi" target="_blank">http://a11y.org/at-spi</a>)
<br />
<br /> MG: we should discuss that outside of the telecon; have you talked to
<br /> Mark or Rob at CodeTalks?
<br />
<br /> JS: pinged Mark; MarkD didn't reply to last email; need to ping him
<br /> again
<br />
<br /> MG: ping Rob Taylor, too
<br />
<br /> JS: overall sense on port? is port page up to date?
<br />
<br /> GJR: been keeping MikeG's updates on AT-SPI2 releases current on Open
<br /> A11y News Page (<a href="http://a11y.org/news" target="_blank">http://a11y.org/news</a>) and with link from Open A11y
<br /> front page (<a href="http://a11y.org/" target="_blank">http://a11y.org</a>)
<br />
<br /> GJR: will ensure that MikeG has editor priviledges so can update
<br /> AT-SPI on D-Bus Port wiki page (<a href="http://a11y.org/d-bus" target="_blank">http://a11y.org/d-bus</a>)

<br />Topic 2: U.S. Section 508 Refresh
<br />
<br /> * due to a very disappointing lack of responsiveness, the 508
<br /> Refresh coordination Open Accessibility hoped to foster is quickly
<br /> becoming moot -- participants are asked to file comments on their
<br /> own as individuals, as well as to advocate within organizations
<br /> and companies to have those entities submit comments; please refer
<br /> to the following resources for more information about contributing
<br /> to the Section 508 Refresh:
<br />
<br /> + The updated standards and guidelines Advance Notice of
<br /> Proposed Rule Making (ANPRM) is on the Access Board's web
<br /> site at: <a href="http://access-board.gov/508.htm" target="_blank">http://access-board.gov/508.htm</a>
<br />
<br /> + the prior discussion of this topic at the 20 April 2010 Open
<br /> A11y teleconference
<br /><a href="http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Accessibility/Minutes/Minutes20100420#Topic_1:_U.S._Section_508_Updates" target="_blank">http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Accessibility/Minutes/Minutes20100420#Topic_1:_U.S._Section_508_Updates</a>
<br /> _________________________________________________________________
<br />
<br />Topic 3: SIG Updates
<br />
<br /> JS: time to ping KarenC to ascertain where we are with license and
<br /> trademark for IAccessible2; pleased to see a lot of discussion and
<br /> work on IA2 emailing list
<br />
<br /> GJR: for AccProbe still need licensing/copyright/usage statement for
<br /> both the distributable and the download page
<br /> _________________________________________________________________
<br />
<br />Topic 4: Web Site Updates
<br />
