Hi all,
Thanks Simon for bringing some ideas to the table, and for all the
others that endured the discussion to provide feedback.

For Accessibility, my preference would be to tender for a specialist
organisation to either triage accessibility bugs or implement
capabilities for a fixed period followed by a performance review and
re-tendering (possibly for a longer period). By doing that we would
avoid having to also develop in-house engineering management and product
accessibility expertise. This is beyond the current tendering practice
in that we would ask the successful applicant to also direct and design
their work.
I'd just question if a semi-finite number of tenders will solve forever
the specific needs of, just for the sake of the argument, a11y. What
decided that, for example, UX will have to be a recurring problem that
granted the direct employment of someone (thanks Heiko for your
efforts!) but a11y or RTL is not?
Honestly, I still feel there are parts of the project that would use
much more love and are definitely matter of inclusiveness, but for the
various reasons we already know very well and were even touched in the
discussion, are laying there suffering.
And yes, sure, employing internal developer is just one of the tools we
can deploy to assure a greater sustainability of the community and the
Foundation, and not the only one.
Cheers,
