Hi All, For those interested in the color / contrast discussion Tom has developed a nice introduction to the state of things right now. It is easy to follow and correct. It gives you some nice tools to see things. Tom and I think the concepts of luminance and contrast need review. Here are some issues we need to understand. 1. Is RGB as measured on current devices meaningful in terms of sRGB? 2. Are we using correct formulas for luminance and contrast. 3. Has the IEEE taken any recent steps to clarify how to compute cross platform computations of luminance? 4. How do our members like Adobe address cross platform color issues, and can this be applied in a reasonable way to computing contrast for accessibility? Whatever formulation we ultimately choose we can always write a converter our key points remain constant like 4.5:1. Well read, watch and enjoy, Best, Wayne
