Hello John and all,

We’ve had a few questions about agenda item #2 so wanted to clarify. We are putting together materials for this item and will send them out when they are ready. It may not be until Monday.

To give context, there is no proposal planned for voting on Tuesday. Rather this agenda item is to begin the conversation around measuring if an instance of something is or is not accessible (or how accessible it is). We believe alternative text provides a good foundation to work from because:

  1.  it is complex enough to demonstrate the variations and potential complexity of measuring accessibility,
  2.  concrete enough that we can carefully examine and discuss the details of measuring, and
  3.  we believe everyone has a solid understanding of what is needed to make text alternatives accessible.

I hope that helps provide some background. We will be walking through the materials step-by-step in the meeting so pre-reading is not required but we will still get them to you as soon as possible.

Kind regards,

Rachael

Thank you Chuck,

Re Item #2: Measuring Success, based on Alt Text - is there any background to that which could be reviewed prior to the call? I am struggling to understand this topic in context.

Thanks!
