Hi all. I see Microsoft Office 2016 preview is available. While I do not have the resources or time, I hope some folks from here are involved or at least checking it out for accessibility issues, in particular my pet peeve of the "color" schemes in Office 2013 lacking any color contrast.
Second, I have filed what I believe to be a bug for IE11 at Microsoft Connect<https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/Feedback/Details/1609619>, regarding the initial placement of keyboard focus on page load. When a keyboard-only user (NOT USING OTHER AT) presses TAB key for the first time, the focus goes to the address bar instead of the first item on the webpage, unless the page itself sets explicit focus. This means that a user not using a mouse must tab through the address bar, top tab, Home button, and any toolbars before getting to the page content on every page.
It might get more attention if other folks clicked the "I can too" reproduce this issue.
Thanks.
Joseph
