Re: ra11y matrix project follow up (or whatever it's called this week)

I think it would be good to give just a little more guidance for the review. For example, include the context -- the purpose of this is who does what with WCAG SCs. Also maybe a few specific questions like Bill suggested.

And include a link to the requirements.

Also note about asking people from different regions/countries to look at it.

We would like to be sure we have not overlooked a critical role and if these categorizations make sense in the typical product development life cycle and EO is comfortable with them Indicate your agreement with how the roles are defined and presented by responding in GitHub or in the comments below.

The goal is to define roles that are relevant to the web project lifecycle (design, dev, qa, etc.), and have a role to play with integrating accessibility in that process. Nothing more, which is why a lot of the roles from that other document just aren’t relevant to what we’re up to (though still important for other types of considerations).
