Any chance to post a summary of what was discussed, if not the transcript of the video? #accessibilityAccessibility Accessibility (commonly shortened to a11y) refers to the design of products, devices, services, or environments for people with disabilities. The concept of accessible design ensures both “direct access” (i.e. unassisted) and “indirect access” meaning compatibility with a person’s assistive technology (for example, computer screen readers).

A summary of the video:

We discussed 3 topics:
- Iterations on the welcome block
- A new look for the support forums
- A new organization for the design handbook
  There is a new re-organization for the handbook, as shown in the TrelloTrello Project management system using the concepts of boards and cards to organize tasks in a sane way. This is what the make.wordpress.com/marketing team uses for example: https://trello.com/b/8UGHVBu8/wp-marketing. card. Colored articles need to be written or reviewed. We discussed three pages:
  - FAQ, is that an empty page? Do we need to add questions? could we hide it for now while we build it up? Recommendation: Keep the 5 questions in there, relink and discuss further what other questions are good to have here.
  - Figma: there are 2 entries for Figma. Figma Tools is a brand new page that tells the user how are we using Figma with WordPress. The second entry tells the user to send a private message to a team repTeam Rep A Team Rep is a person who represents the Make WordPress team to the rest of the project, make sure issues are raised and addressed as needed, and coordinates cross-team efforts. on SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/. to request access. Recommendation: Add the two lines of text to request access inside the First Steps page.
  - Summit: It is old information, shall we keep it as historic documentation or delete it. Recommendation: keep it as is.
