Web Accessibility Requirements in the EU, by @marcusfleckner (@uxdesigncc):
Understanding the European Accessibility Act (EAA), by @tink (@TetraLogical):
https://tetralogical.com/blog/2025/03/19/understanding-the-eaa/
TetraLogicalUnderstanding the European Accessibility Act (EAA) - TetraLogicalThe European Accessibility Act (EAA) requires that products and services made available to citizens of the European Union (EU) are accessible. Like most EU Directives, the EAA (DIRECTIVE (EU) 20191882) is hard to understand, and this has left many people unsure about what it means - and more importantly, what they need to do to make sure their products and services comply. With this in mind, we'd like to share our understanding of the EAA as it applies to digital products and services.
The European Accessibility Act (EAA), introduced in 2019, sets EU-wide standards to make digital products and services more accessible for everyone.
With the compliance deadline fast approaching, read @tink's blog post to learn more about what it means, how it impacts you and crucially, what you need to do to comply.

Is it just my computer or does the @EUCommission really require me to login with a #Microsoft Account to see documents about accessibility in the “Testing early and regularly” section? (All external links in that section lead to Microsoft Sharepoint)

In lieu of current geopolitics I find that seriously disturbing.
Especially in the context of the European Accessibility Act #EAA and Web Accessibility Directive.

I saw in Jack Pelton's column in latest #EAA Sport Aviation Magazine that he called their annual #aviation family reunion "EAA Airventure Oshkosh 2025".
It got me thinking of all the names we use for the same event.
So, a quick poll. In normal conversation what do you call EAA's annual convention and show?
Is anyone else planning on going to the #EAA #AirVenture in Oshkosh in July? I got my hotel reservation and tickets booked for Thursday and Friday. It's going to be my first time going during the week.
Über LinkedIn eine #EAA-GPT-Instanz entdeckt. Mal probegefahren und nach Deadlines in Deutschland gefragt. Es halluziniert eine 2027-Ausnahme herbei, die so nicht im BFSG steht. Tab geschlossen
Das wird noch alles sehr lustig werden.
This hour's random desktop background image on my #MacbookPro is this cool sunset shot of a DC-3 outside someone's farm. I did not shoot this, not sure who did...but...
I have flown north/south in the Willamette Valley of #Oregon many times, and outside Corvallis I always looked for the farm that had a DC-3 parked outside, clearly visible from my cruising altitude. Not sure if this is the same one, but nice eye candy anyway.

LibreOffice hat in Version 25.2 den Export von barrierefreien PDF-Dokumenten nochmals verbessert.
Das habe ich mir zum Anlass genommen, um im Detail zu zeigen, wie man zu einem gültigen PDF/UA kommt.
Wie muss ein Dokument aufgebaut und eingerichtet sein?
Wie läuft der Export und wie kann ich prüfen?
Steht alles im neuen Blogpost …

Das ist selbst für gut sehende Menschen schon schwierig zu lesen.
Für viele Menschen mit Sehbehinderungen wird es jedoch unmöglich.
Aber in der derzeitigen Fassung und im Entwurf der EN301549 fehlt dieser Punkt bei Hardware dennoch. Und das halte ich eindeutig für einen Fehler.
I spent $225 on the #EAA Airventure already and I still need to book a pet sitter.
