Hi John,
Could you kindly provide links to these topic requests? Thanks in advance.


Here is the link to our recent survey that captured working group feedback on the suggestions by COGA.

The survey is now closed, but it may be useful, thanks.

Can we also discuss the new edits for the coga extension and confirm that it is in the right direct?

Hi All,

I have placed the three outstanding LV Issues 95 (Variable Background Color Contrast), 96 (Graphic Contrast) and 98 (Shadow Contrast) on the use case list of the LVTF. Some may simply require new techniques, but some cases may require an extension of WCAG 2.0. The graphic text contrast issue is one such contrast. Do all existing sites that pass WCAG 2.0 now with low contrast graphics text suddenly fail? The other two items are more complex. There is the simple case of gradient (which isn't that simple to test), the case of background images, and time changing background images. I have worked with shadow text, and we need more testing to determine contrast levels and thickness for shadowing.

Some of the issues that these relate to are: need for simple background, processing of fine detail, access to alt-text for low vision and a few others. Some modifications will fall into the WCAG 2.0 framework, but it is likely that others may not.
