Colleagues: This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to the Accessible Platform Architectures (APA) Working Group testing for agreement on a formal comment to Device Posture API (formerly referred to as Screen Fold API) https://www.w3.org/TR/device-posture. The document was authored by The Device and Sensors Working Group, https://www.w3.org/das. An accessibility review was requested of the APA as part of our role in performing horizontal review of W3C documents for accessibility concerns. It was reviewed by APA member Paul Grenier who proposed the following comments https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa/2021Jan/0004.html 1. Per previous discussions, I'd prefer to see summary accessibility considerations organized under a heading at the same level as Security and Privacy Considerations. 2. In the Accessibility Considerations section, I would like to see an extrapolation of 1.3.4 Orientation <https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Understanding/orientation.html> applied to device posture until it can be addressed in those documents. For example, "Content does not restrict its view and operation to a single display orientation <https://www.w3.org/TR/screen-orientation/> or single device posture <https://www.w3.org/TR/device-posture/#posture-modes>, unless a specific display arrangement is essential <https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Understanding/orientation.html#dfn-essential> ***Action to Take*** This CfC is now open for objection, comment, as well as statements of support via email. Silence will be interpreted as support, though messages of support are certainly welcome. If you object to this proposed action, or have comments concerning this proposal, please respond by replying on list to this message no later than Wednesday April 21, 2021 23:59 (Midnight) Boston Time.
