| * Status: awaiting final consensus about approach; requires significant conflict resolution | * Status: awaiting final consensus about approach; requires significant conflict resolution. Chris is okay with merging this as long as other accessibility experts agree that it is useful -- he raised some questions about the necessity of the extra header tags but does not feel that this makes things worse. |

| | Peter reported that a University of Colorado accessibility review revealed some problems with the autocomplete/autosuggest functionality. He demonstrated the problem with NVDA. Stephanie is going to compare notes with Peter as she is also working on a review; she suspects it's aria-related. Claas and Ere will also look into this locally. Demian has shared the results with Chris so that he can investigate further. Peter will open a JIRA ticket. |
