Subject: Agenda: February 12 TEITAC Conference Call

Members of TEITAC:

Following is the agenda for the Tuesday, February 12, 2008 plenary
conference call. Note that this call is scheduled for 3 hours, from 1:00 pm
to 4:00 pm EST. Provisions to be discussed are noted in the agenda below.
Please be sure to review the TEITAC wiki for the latest in provision
comments and recommendations.

Please note that we have not had a quorum of member organizations during our
last three conference calls. Understandably, there are times when other
priorities and commitments take precedence. At this time, we are asking
members to make a concerted effort to attend and/or have your alternate
participate. Last week was especially disappointing because we fell one
member short of quorum status. Thanks in advance for giving this request
your attention.

In order to make progress, Jim and I have organized the first part of this
week's call to perform a complete committee consensus on the previous weeks
recommendations. We will accomplish this in a single call of disagreement
against accepting the recommendations noted below in the first meeting
agenda item, "Full Committee Consensus on Recommended Member Decisions
During Non-Quorum Meetings". Naturally, based on TEITAC protocols we will
first ask for discussion and/or questions before proceeding with the
consensus process. Please prepare well. Each of these items and their status
is well documented in the wiki.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this one-time action, do not
hesitate to contact us.

Lastly, Jim and I have mapped out the agenda for the remaining period of the
TEITAC committee up to and including our April presentation to the Access
Board. That agenda will be posted to this listserv in our next e-mail to the
committee.

Regards and thanks,

The general Flash threshold is marked in the draft as no final decision, and I do not agree to the hardware aspects of this or 2.1.B. I've sent my comments to Gregg for comment but have had no response as yet.

Can this be removed from the general call for consensus please.

Subject: Re: Agenda: February 12 TEITAC Conference Call

I agree that this (FLASH) is not ready for consensus. There is actually
another version being explored with epilepsy experts too.



I think it might be useful to update the group but I would put it last on
the agenda if we have time - otherwise it needs discussion offline still.
(it gets pretty technical pretty fast - so we have been trying to precook
this one before TEITAC discussion.).



I think the group of interested persons is now Albin, Nerhood, Hayes and
Vanderheiden.

Anyone else interested?
