Where is WCAG
I'm looking to create a map of the global locations of WCAG participants to help plan F2F meeting locations. Please add your name and location to the list. It is not important to have a precise location. Your city or even nearby city is sufficient. For example, I (Andrew) live in Concord, MA but I could easily put "Boston, MA" since that is my nearest airport. We aren't trying to determine the precise geo-location of anyone, just get a visualization of how we are distributed around the globe.
Please enter your name followed by a colon and then your location followed by a colon, and whether you are able/willing to travel for a face-to-face Working Group meeting, as shown below. Make sure to leave an extra space between entries please.
