IRC Meeting: September 11, 2013


We edited an accessibility statement.

At the head of the statement is a quote by Cynthia Waddell: “Accessibility is the degree to which a product, device, service, or environment is available to as many people as possible.”

[Then comes the statement:]

WordPress is founded on the principles of an inclusive community and democratization of publishing. The development of WordPress, based on standards and best practices, offers a constantly improving environment with flexibility and choice. We promise to always work toward creating an environment accessible to as many people as possible, inclusive of technology and ability.

[The statement is followed by resources and contact information.]

Resources are available if you would like to learn more about WordPress accessibility.

We want community involvement and welcome feedback. Your comments help us enhance the accessibility of WordPress.
