+1 An additional task for the "The No Asshole Rule"-Blue Team :) On 30 October 2015 at 10:40, Ken Fallon <ken.fallon@gmail.com> wrote:
What I find interesting with these debates is that there is rarely if ever a mention of disabled people[1]. "Including children, over a billion people (or about 15% of the world’s population) were estimated to be living with disability"[1]. These people are been passively discriminated against by the projects we are involved with. You can find a list of open issues here[2], and still more remain unreported.
So whatever you decide to do, can I ask everyone attending FOSDEM to commit to adding the following to their project DNA: - We will make our project accessible by default. - We will give accessibility bugs the same priority as security bugs.
