We meet most Thursdays, 6:30 to 7:30pm UK time (in winter GMT, in summer BST). For more details and Zoom URL see the About page.
Accessibility
We’re delighted with the well-deserved success of the arXiv Accessibility forum. It’s something we care about, as see as vital for the future of TeX and LaTeX. For more information see our Accessibility page.
The STEM publishing system Quarto is a strong candidate for producing accessible documents, particularly for blind users. To showcase this we’re creating a Quarto subsite. Please take a look.
