Re: Article on WCAG 2.1 Regarding Low Vision

Hi Wayne,

I wrote a (slightly dev-oriented) overview of the re-sizing aspects here:
https://alastairc.ac/2017/11/is-text-sizing-dead/#wcag21-proposals


That might help with some of it?

The graphics contrast understanding doc is also coming along:

Hi Everyone,
Thank you for your great work.

The Council of Citizens with Low Vision has asked me to write a description of the WCAG 2.1 as it relates to low vision for their December Newsletter. I was thinking of basing it on the September 17 Working Draft since that is the only existing consensus document. I am aware of the consolidation changes that will occur.

Most of my audience will not be able to read the document with any deep understanding. I will have to describe the practical impact.

I'm thinking of 500 words.

Do you have any guidance.

Wayne
