Sakai Accessibility Help Documentation

  • Scott and Joe will talk to the respective help documentation people at their universities to learn about the process of creating the help documentation to make the work easier.

Sakai 2.9 Accessibility Review

Reviews in Progress

  • Scott and a Michigan student have be investing a great deal of time in the Sakai accessibility review work.  They have posted numerous review on the Sakai 2.9 Accessibility Review (2012) web page.

  • They will continue to go through the high priority tools.

Discuss Escalating Minor issues to Major

  • Due to the fact that any Jira issues marked as "Minor" many never get address, Joe proposed changing significant minor issues into Major issues.

  • Scott proposed that we change the definition of a Minor issue in our review definition to include the fact that no Jira will be submitted if an issue is marked as Minor.

  • Joe suggested the discussion be tabled until the next meeting.

Collaborative Testing

  • Joe and Scott agreed that it is still crucial for the group to collaboratively test the Tests & Quizzes tool.

  • Joe suggested the discussion of testing date be tabled until the next meeting.
