@kimadactyl I'm moving this to the backlog since it feels undecided at the moment.

katjam commented 2 years ago

@kimadactyl Is this something we still want to include in the TransDimension site as a priority?

My only thought is - Not include zine as a pdf. :) because that is totally inaccessible.

kimadactyl commented 2 years ago

pdfs can be accessible! we would need to check if ours is. (i guess it depends what you mean by inaccessible?). i think download and print is a diff kind of access. i get what you mean tho but i think we should include?

katjam commented 2 years ago

Yep - for sure. We'd ideally include scaleable, printable & html resource. It was more of a flippant note because e.g. some people even publish "open source data" in pdfs and it makes me sad... pdf is not the ideal if it's on the web and the only format available.

Yeah tbh this is fair. I guess my idea was that people would print off a copy and use it like a workbook rather than trying to do it on their computer but that's my nice little fantasy lol. We could at least provide it as simple markdown. I think this is important but I can deffo see an argument for moving this to a future funding pot. It just kinda feels bad to have this really nice pdf we've made and not share it for fear of being called out on it?

If we frame it as a "printable" then it is maybe OK. Also is a self contained project for a volunteer? to take on turning it into html?
