Our team meeting for today focused primarily on goal setting. As weāre nearing the release candidate A beta version of software with the potential to be a final product, which is ready to release unless significant bugs emerge. stage for WordPress 4.5, itās time to move our attentions forward to the future again.
Coming out of 4.5, we know that while weāve made a lot of progress on our top issues for that release, thereās still a fair amount of work to do, so weāll be trying finish off the top issues from 4.5: color contrast audits and resolutions and the continuing removal of title attributes. Most of these questions require some significant design decisions, so weāll be working closely with the design team to get these accomplished.
Moving forward into 4.6, we want to start work on making the internal search functions inside WordPress more consistent. We also need to tackle a few thorny problems in the media management UI UI is an acronym for User Interface - the layout of the page the user interacts with. Think āhow are they doing thatā and less about what they are doing..
Looking further forward, weāre going to start developing some libraries to create accessible modal dialogs, accessible tabbed interfaces, and accessible tooltips for eventual inclusion in WordPress core Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress.. The goal is for these to be available for theme and plug-in developers to use as well as for use within the core, so that everybody developing in WordPress can easily generate these types of user interfaces easily and accessibly.
