Re: Welcome to the Publishing Community Group

Dear Gautier,

Thank you for the warm welcome.

My background is in QA, with over 20 years of experience primarily focused
on manual testing and UX. I also have a lot of experience creating
technical and user documentation, as well as conducting training on
quality, usability, and Design Thinking.

Recently, my interests have shifted toward digital accessibility and
general usability, so I believe the Accessibility task force would be a
great fit for me.

As I am new to this, please let me know where to find information about the
plenaries and how to participate?

Kind Regards,
Angel Petrov
