Meetings and Communication
The CSS A11Y TF conducts its work using a variety of synchronous and asynchronous tools. Most work is done via email and issues as shown below, supplemented by occasional teleconferences.
- Most work is conducted via the css-a11y issue tracker;
- Email lists, used largely for administrative matters;
- IRC discussion on the #css-a11y IRCchannel, used largely for minute-taking;
- Web-Based Surveys (WBS);
- Teleconferences when needed (also see meeting minutes);
- Face to face meetings when needed, primarily at the annual Technical Plenary;
- GitHub resources, currently in one repository but potentially later in others:
These tools are used by participants of the Task Force. For ways non-participants can contribute, see how to contribute to the Working Group and file comments.
