@carmacleod I am so very sorry. Carolyn will be hugely missed at IBM and the world of accessibility. She was so generous and patient with her time and sharing her deep expertise in accessibility. She truly made a difference in making the world more accessible.

Hi everyone, I am Carolyn MacLeod’s husband. My wonderful wife Carolyn passed away last night in hospital of metastatic breast cancer. She had asked me in advance to post to her twitter to inform her friends and colleagues. She will be dearly missed.

@rogueCHI For anyone with questions about accessibility at #CHI2020, the accessibility chairs are there to help - accessibility@chi2020.acm.org

If you're planning #CHI2020, it's NOT too late to: - make sure poster sessions are accessible & navigable for people with disabilities - double check with the venue that gender neutral restrooms will be easy to find - list nearby restaurants that support various/restricted diets

@rogueCHI The #CHI2020 accessibility chairs have recommended that all aisles be kept at least 36in wide, or 60in for a space with 2-way traffic or turnaround (in line with US legal requirements). We've been chasing the restaurant list for a while. We'll get there!

@wslasecki We had a fantastic day at the #ASSETS2019 #FATE4PWD workshop today - thanks to everyone who helped out, presented their work, and participated in the discussions. It feels like this area is really getting some momentum.

Kicking off the #FATE4PWD Workshop at #ASSETS2019 in sunny Pittsburgh!

It's been great fun putting this workshop together with @merrierm @branhammertime @jeffbigham @shiriazenkot @wslasecki and @philljenkins. Can't wait to meet everyone on Sunday!

#ActuallyAutistic people - what accommodations would help you participate comfortably in conferences or similar large events with speaker presentations and lots of people?
