Adrian has documented that staves are numbered using a 1-based system (git commit).
Adrian has made a change to the specification to remove the micro-syntax for measure location, which was used in six different places in the spec. He has introduced a new object measure rhythmic position that defines the rhythmic position within a particular bar. The git commit message specifies the various places where these changes have been made. The specification and examples have also been updated accordingly.
Adrian is next going to work on a pull request for the supports object for accidental visibility (see minutes of previous meeting), and will follow up with examples that show how things are encoded with reference to a specific staff (discussion #343).
We talked for a while about rich text encoding (with reference to issue #280) and discussed how this might look now that we’ve moved to JSON. Daniel agreed to write up an issue capturing some of the discussion as a starting point for further feedback.
The next co-chairs’ meeting is scheduled for Thursday 4 July 2024.

]]>As co-chair of the Nordic Accessibility Community Group, I’m pleased to update you on our series of community talks.
These sessions are designed to deepen our understanding and enhance our practices around web accessibility, serving as a vital platform for both knowledge-sharing and professional development. Through these talks, we aim to equip our members and the broader community with the tools and insights needed to promote accessibility in digital environments effectively.
Our series began with Jean-Yves Moyen’s talk on Tuesday, May 21st, titled “ACT: Towards Consistent Accessibility Conformance Testing”. Jean-Yves provided an in-depth look at the ACT Rules framework, emphasizing its importance for consistent accessibility testing. It was an enlightening session that covered the structure of the ACT ruleset, its application, and its benefits for creators, tool developers, and users.
We invite you to join us for the next talk featuring Emma Dawson, scheduled for Tuesday, June 18th at 14:00. Emma will address “Making Interactions More Accessible with Focus Management”. She will discuss practical techniques for improving feedback to keyboard and screen reader users, illustrated with examples from recent accessibility audits. This is an excellent opportunity to enhance your understanding of effective focus management in web accessibility; an all too often overlooked part of making digital experiences accessible.
If you haven’t already done so, you can sign up for Emma Dawson’s talk on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/events/makinginteractionsmoreaccessibl7204792356296888320/
Also, save the date for Thursday, August 15th, when Pär Lannerö will lead a session titled “Bread and Butter Accessibility”. This discussion will focus on how to distribute accessibility responsibilities across various roles within an organization and through different stages of the development process. The session will include a 15-minute presentation followed by a 20-minute discussion, promising valuable insights into incorporating accessibility into daily operations.
If you have expertise in web accessibility and wish to contribute to our community, we would be glad to hear from you. Please consider sharing your knowledge by speaking at one of our future events. These talks are a vital way to ensure knowledge-sharing both within our group and to the broader community, supporting those who aim to improve their accessibility practices.
For more information about our talks and to get involved, please reach out to me or one of the other co-chairs.
]]>We have added our initial Work Statement to the GitHub repository wiki. Please feel free to have a read through that and add any feedback/comments/suggestions as issues in that repo. We are still fleshing out this group’s mandate and scope, and would love to hear ideas from the accessibility community!
Please join the group, or at least subscribe to the mailing list, to get all of the latest updates.
We look forward to kicking things off properly very soon!
]]>Our goal is to engage and empower accessibility professionals to advance the W3C WAI mission through community driven initiatives.
