Hi all, In regards to accessibility, I thought the goal was compliance with Section 508's ICT refresh that was finalized on January 18th. If that is the case then we should ensure that individuals with other disabilities, including physical disabilities, are able to access the installer as well.

These list all actions so can be reviewed for security etc and also can be merged with other deployments scripts Hope that helps Steve Lee OpenDirective http://opendirective.com On 21 January 2017 at 18:21, Gregg C Vanderheiden <[email protected]> wrote: > ACTION REQUESTED: > > Technical team - provide any issues identified on this to Sandra Other > Teams - provide any issues identified on this to Gregg > > WHEN: By Monday Jan 30th > > > > After talking with Sandra (who checked with a couple others) I am > calling a tentative decision as follows. > > > NOTE: > > Tentative decision means that it is a decision that is posted widely > for stated period (in this case 1 week) - to be sure that nothing was > missed in the process of coming to the decision. > > After that time it moves to Decision. > > Decisions can be reversed later with new data or circumstance — but > are not reversed without good cause. > > > We are working on documentation on when things need formal decision - > and how and where they will be recorded. > > One criteria will be decisions that must be relied upon by others or > other groups One place there will always be a link to the decision > will be in the project folder (or JIRA Thread) where the work is being > done. > > (a LINK rather than a copy of the decision is proposed to avoid a > situation where a decision is changed — but random copies of old > decision still lie around to confuse.) > > > 1-Week Tentative Decision > There will be two versions of the installer > > General or Regular Installer > > There is NO screen displaying or allowing the choice of components to > install There is NO screen to determine where it would be installed > The language on all of the installer screens will be very > “low-tech-user friendly” > Will be implemented soon - (as soon as screen texts are ready) so that > it is available for user testing > > SysOp Installer > > Includes a listing of the components to be installed MAY allow > installers to OPT OUT of SOME of the components (e.g. a listener) MAY > or MAY NOT use the very “low-tech-user friendly” text on some or all > of its screens. > > To be determined through tech team advice, pilot team info from pilot > sysops, and user testing with Sys-ops (use of same language on screens > has efficiency if it is not problematic for SysOps > > Will be implemented when there is a call for it - and we have better > info on what should be included > > Tech-Build team can decide WHEN to build SysOp - and that may be NOW > if it good to have something to discuss with SysOps — or if needed for > HDWR testing — or for other reason. > > > Rationale > > Non technical users will be installing the GPII on computers - such as > their home computer The screen showing component causes some to worry > because they don’t > understand what it means - or what they are to do.
