New comment by Ayesh in "I have resigned as the WordPress accessibility team lead"

I don't work in Gutenberg nor in a11y, but I know that WordPress is hugely focused on Gutenberg (which I mentioned in https://ayesh.me/talk/No, my shameless self-plug).

With Gutenberg almost at the edge of releasing, the a11y team lead resigning will only make things worse. Lack of understanding in accessibility is a huge problem in many software projects, and documentation alone wouldn't help it.

During the Gutenberg time, accessibility, secure updates, modern PHP, and a few other initiatives started with little to no progress in them. There is no way Gutenberg is almost released if all these initiatives were to go parallel, at least not without enough resources.
