When we created this team, it was in attempt to create a group to
monitor accessibility issues and work with local teams to make sure all
accessibility needs are understood. But unfortunately we never managed
to actually do anything practical, at least not while explicitly wearing
an "accessibility team hat".

We could of course start that now, specially if you are willing to help
with it. Are you able to quickstart us with a TODO list? One idea would
be to document all the accessibility issues in the debconf
documentation, here:

https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-team/public/data/docs

You are already in the team alias since the beginning, FWIW.
