| |
2.1 | 10 | |
| 11 | The XWiki core Committers take the following measures to ensure accessibility of XWiki: | ||
| 12 | |||
| |
2.2 | 13 | * Assign clear [[accessibility goals>>doc:||anchor="HGoals"]] and [[responsibilities>>doc:dev:Community.DevelopmentPractices||anchor="HAccessibilityManagerRole"]]. |
| |
2.3 | 14 | * Employ formal accessibility quality assurance methods. See [[Accessibility testing strategy>>doc:dev:Community.Testing.WCAGTesting.WebHome]] |

2.5 | 17 | == Conformance status == |
| |
2.1 | 18 | |
| 19 | The [[Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)>>url:https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/wcag/]] defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. XWiki is partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard. | ||
| 20 | |||
| |
2.5 | 21 | == Goals == |
| |
2.1 | 22 | |
| 23 | The XWiki core Committers aim at XWiki being fully conformant with WCAG 2.2 level AA. | ||
