The Accessible Platform Architectures (APA) Working Group has a mission to ensure W3C specifications provide support for accessibility to people with disabilities. One of the ways it does this is by review of specifications as they are published, especially at the first public and wide review draft stages, and for some specifications as an ongoing process over their development. Each year, the group looks at a couple hundred publications, of which several dozen become more active reviews often leading to comments filed. Specification review involves a lot of people to cover the volume and bring a suitable breadth of technical and accessibility expertise. It is interesting and useful work, allowing reviewers to have a key impact on the accessibility of the Web for years to come. A blog post describes this process in more detail: https://www.w3.org/blog/2017/04/apa-review/ Please review and share this post and consider whether you or people you know would like to join this process.
