ever a mention of disabled people[1]. "Including children, over a<br>
billion people (or about 15% of the world’s population) were estimated<br>
to be living with disability"[1]. These people are been passively<br>
discriminated against by the projects we are involved with. You can<br>
find a list of open issues here[2], and still more remain unreported.<br>
<br>
So whatever you decide to do, can I ask everyone attending FOSDEM to<br>
commit to adding the following to their project DNA:<br>
- We will make our project accessible by default.<br>
- We will give accessibility bugs the same priority as security bugs.<br>
