RE: draft message about EPUBCheck fundraising

Hi,

 

This looks good. What about the subject line? Perhaps:

 

Subject: EPUBCheck update and end of year push to complete our fundraising
goal ($10K to go)

 

Thoughts?

 

Best

Subject: draft message about EPUBCheck fundraising

 

Hi All,

 

Here is a draft message about last bit of fundraising for EPUBCheck. Feel
free to tweak as needed:

 

The EPUBCheck development team has been really busy over the past months.
The most recent release, EPUBCheck 4.2.4
[https://github.com/w3c/epubcheck/releases/tag/v4.2.4] has been available
for download since June. The EPUBCheck dev team has made significant updates
to this essential tool, such as support for EPUB 3.2, integrating the W3C's
HTML Nu Validator, localized messages in many languages, syncing ARIA and
HTML validation, and a refactoring of the test suite. Please see EPUBCheck's
Releases page [https://github.com/w3c/epubcheck/releases] for more details.
The next milestone is an internal refactoring that will make it easier for
those less familiar with the EPUBCheck tooling to contribute to the code
base. We need to raise just $10,000 for the last milestone. Please see
https://www.w3.org/publishing/epubcheck_fundraising for more information
about EPUBCheck and how to contribute.
