Train of Communication So Far

Hana and Danielle said;

"There are accessibility guidelines in the Design Systems guide, but it would be good to have a dedicated accessibility guide with even more details. Whoever is working on this guide can reference the accessibility section of our guide. Ciara Salmon is our dedicated Accessibility advisor, and is already attached to this Issue. Please discuss with her."

author has not responded

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

author responded and I replied hackforla/knowledgebase-content#134

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

She has responded, I made some formatting changes to lower the font size and asked her to continue that. hackforla/knowledgebase-content#134

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

She responded and we have written back hackforla/knowledgebase-content#134

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

Bonnie talked to Hana and found out some context behind what KiKi (aka SalmonCiara) was concerned about. Bonnie provided more context to Kiki and she is going to do more work. Her work will inform the templates and how to write a guide guide because it involves font size changes.

Check again in 7 days 9/29 hackforla/knowledgebase-content#134

Bonnie posted a message for another question for the guide

Wait until 2021-10-08 and then ask for update again from Ciara. Will talk to Hana about it today

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

She responded, will check back on 2021-10-08

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

no response, give her another week. 2021-10-13

Next step is mine. KiKi needs a new developer who cares about accessibility to work with. Also have Adam Abundas reach out to her after they sort out hackforla.org changes. https://github.com/hackforla/website/projects/7#card-70908491

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

Adam and and the website team have not made any progress on the changes. Check in again with them next week. 2021-10-25

need to determine if word choices such as click or choose are innately ableist.

This issue requires someone to check on the issues related. Possibly move the guide to another status, etc. Basically needs a through review.
