1. Someone from your team edit the Theme Review Codex entry, to add the<br>

My preference would be to avoid the middle-man, and just have the<br>
Accessibility reviewers simply perform full Theme reviews. That way, the<br>
"accessibility-ready" tagged Themes could get shunted immediately into the<br>
Accessibility queue, reviewed once, and then resolved<br>
(approved/not-approved). But, that would really depend on workload.<br>

Oh - big workload alert! ;-) Right now, we're really light on bodies in the a11y group and stretched terribly thin covering track, documentation etc. Taking on a full theme review might be a bit too much long term unless we can get more people involved.<br>

Any chance of a compromise here? Could we "train up" a couple of interested and experienced theme reviewers to reduce the load? The last thing I want to do is slow down the review process because the a11y reviewers can't cope.<div class="HOEnZb">
