Subject: RE: [office-accessibility] proposal
Mike and Rich, Thank you very much for your correction. Mike, Could you edit the file? Could you send us the both files, the list of correction and the updated document? If you have any problem in editing the ODT file, please let me know.

Do you want me to just edit the document or do you want me to send you the corrections in a list. I've done the latter. It would take me 30 minutes or less to edit in the changes and send you an updated document. - Mike Mike Paciello TPG +1 603.882.4122 ext 103 (Embedded image moved to file: pic18555.jpg) From: Richard Schwerdtfeger [mailto:schwer@us.ibm.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 15, 2006 9:31 PM To: mpaciello@paciellogroup.com Cc: 'Chieko Asakawa'; 'Dave Pawson'; 'Janina Sajka'; office-accessibility@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: RE: [office-accessibility] proposal Terrific!

I am following up on Matt King's use cases and investigating having either a draw:connectedBy attribute (we could also use the name draw:flowsTo per ATK. The problem is that if you are on an object you what to know what associated connectors you have. Currently, you get the glue information from the connector itself. Logically, I would believe we would want to know what object we were on and then assess the list of connectors glued to it and follow a path. I have a person in my team looking at model-based authoring tools for accessibility and I will discuss this with him. We will also need a keyboard navigation override scheme. Currently, Open Office and Workplace follow a last object added scheme and tabbing starts from the first node added to the next subsequent node added and so on. This is like PowerPoint. We have some options here: 1: - we can use tabindex but they are difficult to maintain, or - we can use nextFocus which has advantages beause then you don't have to keep track of actual numbers.This is in XHTML2. http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-xhtml2-20050527/mod-hyperAttributes.html#s_hyperAttributesmodule nextFocus takes an IDREF - SVG also has focusable attribute similar to focustraversable as Peter I am sure remembers from Java http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGMobile12/interact.html#focusable-attr I am not sure that we would want to skip navigation of presentation objects. Personally I would opt for nextFocus seeing as all the objects do have an id reference. I envision having two navigation schemes - following the tab order using the default focus navigation mechanism or by having the user agents enumerate the connection options and letting the user slect the next object to receive focus.

I think we need to fix the things that must be fixed today first. Once we have essential parity, we can go for multimedia and the kind of diferentiation that can raise the bar for accessibility. But, let's not try to push that through too fast. Let's do it deliberately building broader consensus as we go. Mike Paciello writes: > I'd like to second Richard's motion to accept Cheiko's.
