Andrew, Josh, Alastair,

I haven't had a chance to personally review this site, but I do want to
submit the winner of this year's OpenAIR 2018 competition for consideration
as a WCAG 2.1 implementation.

The team that built the American Council for the Blind, Nebraska site, "The
Inclusive Lab" is gung ho to be a WCAG 2.1 implementer. If someone has the
time to formally review the site for WCAG 2.1, I'm confident that Michael
Fairchild (the lead of the Inclusive Lab team) will be more than willing to
make sure that this site https://acbnebraska.org/ is a shining example of
WCAG 2.1.

Let me know if you this is a possibility...and I can share Michael
Fairchild's contact info with y'all.

Peace out,
G

Hi Glenda,

I'm afraid the implementations are used specifically to progress to
candidate recommendation, and at this stage we don't have the capasity
to add & test another one.

What I would suggest is that someone who is confident with the new SCs
tackle it as a case study and publish the results as a blog post or
article.
From a very brief look it seems to be a great site, so should be an
easy test, and a useful case study.

Kind regards,

-Alastair

Is there an existing set of implementations that are being reviewed? If so, where are they?

People may forget exactly what it was that you said or did,
but people will never forget how you made them feel.......

Our scars remind us of where we have been........they do not have to
dictate where we are going.
