@askryanair Sure, another 5 hours waiting for a DM response won't add much to the 6 months.

@designcouncil @accessibleweb Just highlights the problem with automated testing tools. They have their place in your approach to a11y but they aren't the whole solution.

@Access_Rhodes Never been sure what the point of 'partial' compliance was. I flagged this at the original policy consultation (iirc) and have continually been perplexed by it. It is either 'met' or 'not met'.

@FrankElavsky In general I agree that there is much more to deal with. My suspicion is colour blindness is a focus as it is easy to demonstrate and easy to fix. If we could get chart creators to do even this one simple thing it would be a help as the mods do help others not just colour blind.

@LeonieWatson Agree, sadly seen instances where research was effectively done with fake people. I think there are types of research that lead to such terms: testing with end users, testing with specialist assistive tech users or validating against previous research expressed using personas.

@hrobertking @LeonieWatson If there are “normals” that are test participants, are those who are not participants not normal? “Normals” is such a dreadful term when applied to people.
