||
| <section id="intro"> | ||
| <h2>Introduction </h2> | ||
| <p> | ||
| Continuous improvement to the utility and quality of the APG depends on broad community input and participation. | ||
| Anyone may contribute feedback, suggestions, or code via the channels described below. | ||
| However, if you would like to contribute regularly, please consider | ||
| <a href="#joining-task-force">joining the Authoring Practices Task Force</a>. | ||
| As a task force participant, you have greater influence over APG development, and you and your organization will be listed as contributors where appropriate. | ||
| </p> | ||
| </section> | ||
|
|
||
| <section id="feedback"> | ||
| <h2>Providing feedback</h2> | ||
| <p> | ||
| The APG provides two public feedback channels -- GitHub and email. | ||
| Links to both are provided at the bottom of every page in the APG. | ||
| </p> | ||
| <p> | ||
| GitHub issues are the best way to ask a question, make a suggestion, or report a problem. | ||
| Before creating a new issue, it is helpful if you first review existing issues to determine whether there is an issue addressing the same concern. | ||
| If so, please comment on that issue rather than raising another. | ||
| If the concern you would like addressed is related to an example implementation of an APG pattern, at the bottom of the page, next to the revision date, there is a link named "Related Issues". | ||
| That link opens a GitHub project containing all issues associated with the relevant pattern and its examples. | ||
| </p> | ||
| <p> | ||
| <a href="https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues">View and create APG issues on GitHub.</a> | ||
| </p> | ||
| <p> | ||
| The task force also uses the public aria-practices mailing list for email discussion. | ||
| Meeting announcements, agendas, and links to minutes are sent to the mailing list. | ||
| While GitHub issues are the preferred place to discuss APG content, the mailing list is available to anyone who would prefer to communicate with the APG Task Force by | ||
| <a href="mailto://[email protected]">sending email</a>. | ||

| Examples of contributions include: | ||
| </p> | ||

| <h2>Helping provide assistive technology support data</h2> | ||
| <p> | ||
| The assistive technology support tables included on APG example pages, e.g., | ||
| <a href="../../patterns/radio/examples/radio-activedescendant.html#at-support">Assistive Technology Support for Radio Group Example Using aria-activedescendant</a>, | ||
| are provided by the | ||
| <a href="https://www.w3.org/groups/cg/aria-at/">ARIA and Assistive Technologies (ARIA-AT) Community Group</a>. | ||
| The ARIA-AT community group aims to ensure APG patterns have consistent and interoperable accessibility support. | ||
| If you would like to contribute to this aspect of the APG, you can learn more about the ARIA-AT project and how to contribute at | ||
