From jmac at jmac.org Thu Jun 13 20:50:42 2019 From: jmac at jmac.org (Jason McIntosh) Date: Thu, 13 Jun 2019 20:50:42 -0400 Subject: [Testing2019] The IF accessibility report is published! Message-ID: Dear IFTF accessibility tester: I’m pleased to announce that we yesterday published the report of the IFTF Accessibility Testing Project. You can find it at http://accessibility.iftechfoundation.org. (The IFTF blog post announcing it: https://blog.iftechfoundation.org/2019-06-12-iftfs-accessibility-testing-project-report.html) The report contains, at the end, a list of all the testers who returned at least one survey. I used the names as they were written on those survey responses, so if you find that your name is incomplete (or missing?) and you’d like it changed, please let me know. If you’d like to stay aware of upcoming game-accessibility calls in general, I’d invite you to check out AbleGamers Player Panels program, if you’re not already a member of it: https://ablegamers.org/player-panels/. Blind players, especially, are underrepresented in Player Panels, and the program would love to hear from more. To keep in touch with IFTF, you can sign up for our monthly newsletter at https://iftechfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/friends. (Or just ask me to sign you up.) Our blog is at https://blog.iftechfoundation.org, and we are @IFTFoundation on Twitter. I would like to thank you once again and wholeheartedly for your participation in this effort. With your help, the IF creative community now has a better idea where its tools and techniques stand with accessibility — especially with visually and mobility-impaired players — and how it can improve its future work. We very literally could not have done it without you. Your friend, Jason McIntosh President and co-founder, Interactive Fiction Technology Foundation
