Agenda:

Review and organization of rA11y JIRAs:

    
Can we made these grouped by task, tool, or scope so that we could begin assigning work?  Can we make the work bite-sized and/or approachable?
    
Need to communicate soon, broadly, and with the urgancy.
Offscreen / Skip
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-31549 Ensure screen reader specific content is rendered off-screen rather than hidden or not displayed.
SSB Recomends (note the redundnacy)
/*
. hide {
  position: absolute;
  clip: rect(1px,1px,1px,1px);
}
*/
.hide {
  position: absolute;
  left: -1000px;
  top: 0px;
  overflow:hidden;
  width:0;
}
 Matt to ask SSB about what the best practice would be if CSS clip is deprecated:
Reasons for not using other techniques for hiding content:
Next steps:
    - working on colour contrast on Apereo Accessbility Slack channel
    - ask SSB for recommendations about visibly-hidden content
    - summarize on confluence page

Colour / UX issues?
