What are people working on?

• Tony https://github.com/jupyter/accessibility/issues/67

  • What jupyter/accessibility has been so far: kind of a cross-project team compass

  • This PR discusses ways to make it a more resource-focused and active repo. Also to help people actually start using Jupyter tools (that’s been a popular ask)

• Patrick

  • Could anyone give an update on how things are currently working, perhaps both high level and in the code?

  • People are interested! We need to follow up and connect these communities

  • Are these communities also willing to giving feedback on how to make better experiences (not just be WCAG compliant) based on how they use these tools?

• Isabela

  • Jupyter accessibility workshop summary/things to do

  • Alt text PRS from the workshop (still in progress until the end of this week)

    • https://github.com/isabela-pf/jupyter/pull/1

    • https://github.com/isabela-pf/jupyter.github.io/pull/1

• Gabriel

  • Does the JupyterLab settings UI PR add accessibility features/is that a place they could go in the future?

  • Right now? That’s not the focus. It could be added in the future.

Next steps

• Discuss jupyter/accessibility reorganization (open for commenting to everyone!)

• Follow up on cross-community collaboration (Isabela, Jenn, Tony, Patrick)

• Remove hardcoded css colors to improve the extensibility of the these (maybe Nick?)
