<p>Thank you for attending the Meet Up on the 28th.</p>
<p>We had an awesome event, covering WCAG 2.0 and the additions that are included in 2.1</p>
<p><a href="http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbXNpZD0mYXVpZD0mbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTgwODMwLjk0MjkyNDMxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE4MDgzMC45NDI5MjQzMSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MDM0ODM2JmVtYWlsaWQ9amVzcy50aG9tcHNvbkBzYmN0Yy5lZHUmdXNlcmlkPWplc3MudGhvbXBzb25Ac2JjdGMuZWR1JnRhcmdldGlkPSZmbD0mZXh0cmE9TXVsdGl2YXJpYXRlSWQ9JiYm&&&100&&&http://watech.github.io/presentations/WCAG21MeetUp/index.html?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery#/">Slides
are posted online</a></p>
<p>We ended the day by breaking into groups and writing user stories to capture the users, functions and value of several of the new criteria in WCAG 2.1</p>
<p>I recommend checking out the <a href="http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbXNpZD0mYXVpZD0mbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTgwODMwLjk0MjkyNDMxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE4MDgzMC45NDI5MjQzMSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MDM0ODM2JmVtYWlsaWQ9amVzcy50aG9tcHNvbkBzYmN0Yy5lZHUmdXNlcmlkPWplc3MudGhvbXBzb25Ac2JjdGMuZWR1JnRhcmdldGlkPSZmbD0mZXh0cmE9TXVsdGl2YXJpYXRlSWQ9JiYm&&&101&&&https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery">
W3C onsite on the new standard</a> and drilling down into the "Understanding" and "How to meet" sections of each of the new criteria.</p>
<p>For a visual, I am liking <a href="http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbXNpZD0mYXVpZD0mbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTgwODMwLjk0MjkyNDMxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE4MDgzMC45NDI5MjQzMSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MDM0ODM2JmVtYWlsaWQ9amVzcy50aG9tcHNvbkBzYmN0Yy5lZHUmdXNlcmlkPWplc3MudGhvbXBzb25Ac2JjdGMuZWR1JnRhcmdldGlkPSZmbD0mZXh0cmE9TXVsdGl2YXJpYXRlSWQ9JiYm&&&102&&&http://intopia.digital/articles/intopia-launches-wcag-2-1-map/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery">
a map</a> created by a company called Intopia that shows where the new criteria land within the existing WCAG <span>principles.</span></p>
<p>At this time, there is no set date for moving the WA State minimum standard to WCAG 2.1. Becoming familiar with the new criteria and how to test for them is valuable, as they do include testing information for patterns that we need to be watching for to
provide access to those with disabilities.</p>
