code push shortly

We'll be beginning a code push in about 15-20 minutes. Please put up your seat backs and return your tray tables to the full and upright locked position. We'll update this entry when we're done!

(2:40AM EST: As always, the prep turns out to be more involved than we predicted. We'll hopefully be starting soon.)

3:10AM EST: And, we're done! Please report any issues here or to Support.

I've got a friend who uses a screenreader, too, so being able to see the icon description is good.

The comments bit, though... nice idea, but where it's used to credit the maker of an icon, I think it'd look better if it came up as [personal profile] username or [livejournal.com profile] username rather than showing the HTML code - it'd be neater and tidier, because we don't see the HTML code in use, only what it does. I doubt that even a screenreader tells the user the HTML code string rather than the emphasis (if it even does emphasise whatever in the first place). That's if you end up deciding to keep the comment bit showing of course - if you decide to take that bit off, this becomes a moot point! :D

But I love the new option to show my icons in keyword order - after all, that's the order we see them in when picking an icon to add to a comment or post.

I've actually already put a suggestion in the queue for changing how we sanitize the username field. It can't show up as [personal profile] username (Because alt and title are plain text by HTML standard and browser enforcement), but it could show up as "username" or "username (dreamwidth.org)". I put it in the suggestion system instead of the bug queue because it's complicated issue, how you deal with sanitizing HTML, and I wanted a discussion because I'm convinced I'm probably missing something. But yes, I agree that it would look nicer if you didn't see the raw HTML there.
