WAI-IG List Postings Politeness Reminder

Dear WAI-IG Colleagues, Friends and Participants,

 

Reminder of List Culture:

 

* Please ensure that your messages to the WAI Interest Group mailing list contribute to a polite, comfortable, and constructive exchange of ideas to advance web accessibility.

 

Before you write a message, think about how it will come across to the hundreds of people on the list.

Please:

* Provide constructive information. Focus on developing solutions, rather than just complaining.

* Be respectful. Be positive. Be open to different perspectives.

* Avoid personal attacks, naming calling, and such.

 

Also please:

* Use a Subject line that describes the topic well. If you change topics, change the Subject. This is usually handled as follows: New Topic XYZ [was: Old Topic]

* Explain the issue clearly. Provide sufficient background information.

* When your comments are not useful for the entire list, reply off-list -- that is, reply directly to the sender and do not send the message to the list.

 

If you have questions about whether or not a message is appropriate for the WAI IG list, please contact me, Katie Haritos-Shea (ryladog@gmail.com <mailto:ryladog@gmail.com> ) WAI-IG Chair, or Shawn Henry (shawn@w3.org <mailto:shawn@w3.org> ) *before* you send it.

Unsubscribe:

* To unsubscribe from the main list, send e-mail to w3c-wai-ig-request@w3.org <mailto:w3c-wai-ig-request@w3.org>   with "unsubscribe" as subject. 

 

Happy Friday Everyone!

​
