It is a «new» European law: European Accessibility Act (EAA). Until 28th of June 2025 it has to be transposed by EU-members into national law. E.g. Germany will have a «Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz» (BFSG) in June 2025.

Hi Steffen,

this is Directive UE/2019/882 (https://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2019/882/oj), which requires national law to be enforced (so it seems weird [at least to me] to call UE directives “laws“).

Incorporation into national law (sorry, this is “transposition” in EU-ideolect [https://www.eca.europa.eu/Other publications/EN_TERMINOLOGY_PUBLICATION/EN_TERMINOLOGY_PUBLICATION.pdf#page=56]) was due more than two years ago (28/06/2022).

These legal texts shall enter into force in 28/06/2025 (according to article 31 of the said directive [https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32019L0882#d1...]).

Incorporations into national law by each State may be found at https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/NIM/?uri=CELEX:32019L0882.

BTW, according to these data, Germany seems to have changed even its »Grundgesetz« because of this accesibility directive.

What do you mean by all of this? My question was about how «alt text» can be provied by ConTeXt. Why do you repeat and list all these legal details?

Just another comment, please avoid hijacking message threads, since they break how message threads are displayed.

When starting a message with a new subject, avoid replying to a message from the list erasing the old subject and body.

In that case, the old message header (with references and in-reply-to fields) remains the same.

In this case, your message contains the in-reply-to the message-id value from https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/ntg-context@ntg.nl/message/UFWZUB6WLY3P... and the reference to the original thread opening (https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/ntg-context@ntg.nl/message/A3FVUDZVLZXB...).

The more detailed explanation only intends to show why replying to a message to create a new thread breaks the display of message threads.

When I click on one of the two links you have posted, it will open «Same font for metafun as document». What is this? I never saw or read this thread, so why do you think my email hijacked something? What have I done wrong? Yours, Steffen
