That is ok - come along anyway! At our September meetup\, we started our open-source accessibility planning guide\, using Gitbooks. We defined the goal of the book as a concise gu ide for decision-makers in companies making software applications. We ro ughed out chapters and each took one (see book for details on page one o f each chapter). Our first milestone will be a chapter draft from each o f us by the November meetup\, when we will work on it more. Gitbooks ena bles anyone to write and design lovely books with as much public collabo ration as they wish. \;\n \;\nThe Portland Accessibility and User Experience Meetup will address how to incorporate accessibility and uni versal design principles into project planning\, user research\, and UX evaluation. The purpose of this meet up is to host an ongoing conversati on about how to design and build tools that are inclusive to the greates t number of people possible - meaning those with and without (dis)abilit ies. \;\n \;\nWe intend to discuss topics related to accessibility policy and regulations\, incorporating people with disabilities into an iterative project lifecycle\, how to conduct UX research with diverse p opulations\, automated and manual tools for UX evaluation\, building acc essibility into company policy and practice\, and much more! \;\n  3\;\nA UX Universal and Inclusive Design meet up is timely as we see the Dept. of Justice handing down ruling after ruling requiring digital pro ducts and services to be accessible (i.e. Netflix\, Redbox\, Target\, et c...). This meet up will provide a much needed resource for Portland bas ed companies and individuals interested in accessibility\, universal des ign\, and inclusive design. \n\nTags: meetup:event=225613347\, meetup:gr oup=Portland-Accessibility-and-User-Experience-Meetup\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250469228 URL:http://www.meetup.com/Portland-Accessibility-and-User-Experience-Meet up/ SUMMARY:PDXAUX a11y Working Group: Gitbook Part II LOCATION:Puppet: 308 SW 2nd Ave Fifth Floor\, Portland OR 97204 US SEQUENCE:3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
