This site was created to encourage broader participation in shaping future updates to EN 301 549. While final decisions remain the responsibility of the **CEN/CENELEC/ETSI Joint Working Group (JWG) on “eAccessibility”**, the site has served as a collaborative space for contributions and discussions.
As the formal voting process of the European Standardization Organizations is now underway (until February 2026), the site functions as an "**archive**" of the extensive contributions and discussions that have led to the creation of the current draft. All issues raised during the preparatory work have been tagged with the **v4.1.0** label.
As the formal voting process of the European Standardization Organizations is now underway (until August 2026), the site functions as an "**archive**" of the extensive contributions and discussions that have led to the creation of the current draft. All issues raised during the preparatory work have been tagged with the **v4.1.0** label.
Although new issues can technically be created, they cannot lead to changes in the draft while the formal approval process is in progress.

# How the site is organised
## Issues
Each proposal for a potential change or addition to EN 301 549 began as an "**Issue**". accessible via the “Issues” option in the side menu on the left of the screen. Issues include one or more **labels** to indicate the context of the suggested change and to facilitate filtering. If an issue proposes a solution, that solution must comply with [the design principles that apply to the document](https://labs.etsi.org/rep/HF/en301549/-/wikis/EN-301-549-Design-Principles).
