Re: Another site to consider as a WCAG 2.1 implementation

Hey Mark, since this is fresh in my mind as we are preparing for it here at Capital One, here is the WCAG 2.1 Implementation Report: https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/implementation-report/

Is there an existing set of implementations that are being reviewed? If so, where are they?

Hi Glenda,

I'm afraid the implementations are used specifically to progress to
candidate recommendation, and at this stage we don't have the capasity
to add & test another one.

What I would suggest is that someone who is confident with the new SCs
tackle it as a case study and publish the results as a blog post or
article.

easy test, and a useful case study.

Kind regards,

PS. Was this the email list you intended to send to?
