Next Meeting for Internationalization Accessibility Community Group - "global-inclusion" Wednesday, May 1, 2024

Hi everyone,

Many thanks to everyone who was able to attend the first meeting of the
Internationalization Accessibility Community Group on April 16, 2024.

We are still working out the details for future meetings, but decided that
we would shoot for the first and third Wednesdays of every month. I have
some homework to do to try to help us decide on a time for the meetings, so
I will be sending a separate email, asking for all of you to respond with
your preferred meeting times.

We discussed the possibility of changing the short name for the community
group from "global-inclusion" to "internationalization accessibility". We
did not make a final decision and are asking members of the community group
to please vote on their preferred short name. Instructions for voting
