Fwd: [Restyle] Spec Template Redesign - Update

People in WAI IG may want to participate in the project referenced 
below. The project will impact how W3C specifications are styled, which 
may have accessibility impacts. Contributions to requirements and review 
of proposed styles will be important to avoid accessibility problems 
creeping into these core W3C resources (and that known accessibility 
problems get fixed). Early participation is important, as comments later 
in the process may be deferred to a future effort - which could be 
several years away. Micahel

As Coralie announced a fortnight ago, W3C and Jefferson University are collaborating
on a full redesign of the W3C specification templates (including boilerplate text
and markup), with a goal of completing a prototype design by May 2018. The students
are posting their updates at
   https://medium.com/jefferson-w3c-collaboration
with the introductory post at
   https://medium.com/jefferson-w3c-collaboration/announcing-the-jefferson-w3c-specification-collaboration-fd6080b6de89
and an update describing the project brief and timeline at
   https://medium.com/jefferson-w3c-collaboration/next-step-of-our-collaboration-a-design-brief-b1afe1f13c00
The students also have a brief survey open at
   https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfyhnfGENOVmhhQ5MS3e2mwOG5V4y-Z--ymtSVNxwHNL38sog/viewform

The scope of the project and requirements are detailed on the W3C wiki at
   https://www.w3.org/wiki/SpecProd/Restyle
If there's info that belongs in the spec templates that's not listed in the wiki at
   https://www.w3.org/wiki/SpecProd/Restyle/Content
please add it in.

General comments are also welcome on the spec-prod@w3.org mailing list;
please tag them with [Restyle] as I have done here.

Since we do things here by consensus, it's going to take the participation
of all of W3C to make this project happen. Let us give these students enough
guidance to stay on the rails as they work through the problem, so that we
end up with an excellent template for us to use going forward!

So please
   a) Forward this information to your working groups
   b) Be sure to let us know any requirements that are not already documented
   c) Follow along and review their work! Comments can be left on their blog
      posts and, as aforementioned, via spec-prod.
and let me know if you have any questions.
