Who’s interested in participating in an accessibility sprint?

A location, date, and time hasn’t been set yet, but one suggestion is having it during DrupalCon Denver. In order to maximize involvement, we’ll also have a Skype session and an IRC chat room (#drupal-accessibility) available for people unable to make it in person.

During this sprint we can tackle accessibility issues in Drupal and improve accessibility documentation. A successful sprint needs a focused set of issues defined beforehand, so what issues should we tackle?

Interested

I'm interested. However, on Friday March 23 I'll be traveling, so I could only participate until about 11AM before I would need to leave for the airport.

I'll be arriving in Denver Monday morning, so collaborating on Monday the 19th would be possible for me.

I'm not sure I'm heading to Denver

I would love to be there for the sprint, but 2011 has been pretty action packed and I think I'm going to be flying around a bit less in 2012.

I would still be interested in participating in the sprint even if I'm not there though. I believe others stated the same in the last call.

Accessibility in AdaptiveTheme.

I've decided to use AdaptiveTheme to Drupal, because it is the only one that follows all standard accessibility found at WCAG However, I've get

a really serious difficulty in my point of view. There are two side bars that are called near the content, which makes that the screen

readers read the content only after the general content,, even the first

side bar is posicioned in the left, it means, before the general content. How can I solve this problem?

Best regards,

Leondeniz.

this should be a separate thread.
