Proposed Group: Inclusive Design for the Immersive Web Community Group

The Inclusive Design for the Immersive Web Community Group has been proposed by Dominique Hazaël-Massieux:

Following on the W3C Inclusive Design for the Immersive Web standards
Workshop held in November 2019, the Inclusive Immersive Web
Community Group tracks and promotes progress on accessibility issues
identified across the many relevant W3C and Khronos groups working on
aspects of XR (virtual reality and augmented reality), and ensures progress
towards a consistent set of guidance, technologies and techniques to
make the Immersive Web accessible to people with disabilities.

The group also acts as a liaison with the XR Access Initiative and its relevant sub-groups.

Work Mode: The primary work modes for the group will be to track and respond to
accessibility issues logged in the group’s repo. The group will endeavor to have a representative from each of the groups identified as relevant to the progress of the said issues and will meet a minimum of quarterly
to review progress on all issues including those which have been logged
but have not been actively taken up in order to ensure that there is a
coordinated view of issues raised.

You are invited to support the creation of this group. Once the group has a total of five supporters, it will be launched and people can join to begin work. In order to support the group, you will need a W3C account.

Once launched, the group will no longer be listed as “proposed”; it will be in the list of current groups.

If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on site-comments@w3.org

Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
