Introduction and Roll Call by Co-Chairs (Jim Tobias & Mike Paciello)
The TEITAC 9A teleconference started with co-chairs Jim Tobias and Mike Paciello going over the agenda, then taking roll of the callers. It was determined that a quorum of twenty-seven organizations was present during the call. [See: http://www.access-board.gov/sec508/refresh/agenda_2007-11-26.htm]
Since the teleconferences are official TEITAC meetings, the following protocols apply to ALL teleconference calls:
Review of Purpose of Teleconferences
The co-chairs reviewed the purpose of the calls and reminded the members present that the primary purpose of the calls was to give the members an opportunity to review and discuss proposed provisions from the subcommittees which were particularly in need of group review and analysis.
There will be four teleconference calls during November to December 2007, and each will be a portion of what will be designated “TEITAC 9A, 9B, 9C and 9D”. The conference calls are intended to help the members clarify the particularly complicated issues, so that the work of the committee will move forward apart from the face to face meetings. The teleconferences provide the committee the time to focus on specific issues, which will help the members come to resolution.
Consensus Review of User Interface / Content provisions
Discussion was held on “3. User Interface and Electronic Content Provisions” in the most current draft of the report. [October 26, 2007 at the time of the call.]
The following provisions from the October 26, 2007 draft were discussed during the call: [Note: this material is taken verbatim from a series of emails exchanged among TEITAC members.
