I was asked about (my) history of the web and relationship with @w3c by @bkardell for @igalia 3 weeks ago. The filmed interview aired last night.
So many memories resurfaced! For example did you know the 1998 soccer World Cup was streamed live, in ascii, over Telnet? I watched it!
Some parts are a bit personal, but I got to share with Brian some of my favourite thoughts and hopes for #W3C.
If you watch I hope you learn something ☺️

WCAG2ICT has been a key resource for including WCAG in ICT accessibility regulation, legislation, and standards around the world. This update facilitates further adoption of WCAG 2.1 and WCAG 2.2 in non-web contexts.
