Hi all, Here are my notes on the WebXR Layers 1 spec: [1] The spec provides support for various layer types used in a WebXR session (adds 'composition' layers). It covers rendering, view creation, Video Layer creation, events and WebXR Device API stuff. It's mostly technical implementation details - but one thing that jumped out at me is: * It allows the rendering/re-rendering of certain content at different resolutions. This may have a11y implications to ensure that important a11y related content doesn't get scaled down. Maybe a note is needed to see captions or other content should be considered critical so this, and other a11y related content is not rendered poorly? I'm not sure which layer immersive captions would be drawn into so that is something to find out. Once we know, it could be a case that to support a11y requirements the layer itself must operate within certain parameters.
