Status of the Proposed SSWG Standards Process
Nothing much has happened with this in the IT Roadmap Coordinating Council during the summer break. We'll pick it up again, now that things are back in swing.
Later in the meeting, there was discussion of what compliance is required for SSWG standards. While having the IT Roadmap Coordinating Council endorse our standards is a good step, the consensus was that there should also be UCD policy. David Walker will look into this.
Browser Standards
Minimum Standards Compliance Requirements for UC Davis Web Sites and Applications was discussed.
The document currently references ITAG's proposed UC-wide browser standards. We will copy all of the UC-wide documents into a UCD repository, as there are some changes that are needed for those other documents.
PPM 310-70, World Wide Web Standards contains a paragraph about "Adherence to browser and technology standards." The new SSWG standard would supersede that paragraph, so we will need to coordinate with University Communications to do that.
We will review revisions via electronic mail in time for discussion at the next TIF Infrastructure meeting in October.
