Proposed Shift to Full Working Group

@Marco Morales

  • Would like to get input on shifting this group to a full working group, outside of being a product subgroup.

  • Shift to Design Working Group (mostly as a way to separate from previous subgroup structure

  • Would require working group charter, allowing us to specify / set goals, possibly at a regular cadence

  • Brian: In support. Would be great to have more overlap with Paragon

Paragon Color Palette: Label Colors

@Edward Byun

  • [Proposal] Paragon Label Colors Addition v2

  • Adding standard label colors can help in any context where a set of predetermined colors not associated with e.g. success/failure is needed

    • E.g. tagging, assignment types, data visualization

  • What is the correct number of colors to include in this set? If we can reduce the number from nine, we can alleviate a few accessibility concerns.

  • Based on different use cases, I’d like to add specific guidance on accessibility to the documentation for the color set.

  • Color count: 6 vs. 9 vs. more (likely keeping full set, but could recommend the first set of ~6 colors where possible)

  • Use cases: would be helpful to have any additional input / use cases where these would be helpful
