| antdillon | Hello, could someone let me know who to talk to about reviewing the accessibility of part of the ubuntu website. Thank you in advance. | 08:42 |
|---|---|---|
| AlanBell | antdillon: hello, what did you have in mind? | 10:56 |
| antdillon | AlanBell, As a member of the webteam here at Canonical I would like to check with someone in the know if the new contribution page is completely assessable and if there are any improvements. We don't want to block to download process for anyone | 10:57 |
| AlanBell | oh right, cool | 10:59 |
| AlanBell | have you tried it with orca? | 10:59 |
| AlanBell | antdillon: yeah, seems OK to me in orca (just turn on the screen reader from the universal access settings then put your mouse away and use the keyboard) | 11:11 |
| AlanBell | I can't operate the sliders, but changing values is fine and reading the headings works | 11:12 |
| AlanBell | the total seems readable but isn't in the tab order so you have to go back and find it | 11:12 |
| AlanBell | dunno if the paypal route is accessible, but finding and using the not now link works fine | 11:12 |
| AlanBell | it is a bunch of stuff to read before you get to the download itself, but that is kind of the point for everyone | 11:13 |
| AlanBell | I am sighted, and I did have the monitor on when reviewing it, I was just checking that all the bits were navigable and readable, someone else might have a more informed opinion on the structure of the page | 11:14 |
| antdillon | AlanBell, Thanks a lot for doing the tests. Can we confirm that it is accessible to the point were not stopping anyone from downloading Ubuntu | 12:40 |
| AlanBell | sure, I could tab to the download link and activate it. | 12:43 |
| AlanBell | antdillon: you might want to think about allowing focus on the total box | 12:47 |
| antdillon | AlanBell, The total box is not a box but a div to display the total. It's not editable | 12:48 |
| AlanBell | yeah, doesn't have to be editable | 12:48 |
| AlanBell | just you tab right past it | 12:49 |
| AlanBell | antdillon: how would I contribute financially to making Ubuntu more accessible? | 13:34 |
| antdillon | AlanBell, There isn't a specific topic for accessibility but I would suggest it would be "Make the desktop more amazing" and "Community participation in Ubuntu development" | 13:37 |
| AlanBell | how set in stone is the list? | 13:39 |
