Looking really interesting Chuck! Great work by you and your team.

I'm wondering the degree to which you all are designing with
accessibility in mind...if I learned one thing from folks like Eli,
Colin, and Brian, it's that the road to better UX for all lies through
better accessibility.

Also, I think if we are going to address UX in the CLE without also
moving the accessibility bar forward, we are actually taking a step
backwards.

Sorry if I missed information you already posted about the
accessibility of these experiments.
