 ## P5-15-02 current acceptance delta
 
+**Screen-reader scheduling update —2026-10-10:** owner requested completing the operator session later. RD06 remains **NOT COMPLETE / NOT VERIFIED**; operator availability is recorded, but no actual spoken results exist. The [manual packet](p5-15-02/MANUAL_ACCEPTANCE.md#owner-scheduling-decision--2026-10-10) retains the required workflows and evidence. This is a scheduling deferral, not acceptance, a waiver or a new approved feature exclusion. Existing release/full-scope blockers remain in effect.
+
 The [02 native audit](p5-15-02/README.md) and [findings](p5-15-02/DEFECTS.md) supersede inherited accessibility counts/status only for measured scopes. Confirmed **A11Y-01 P1 keyboard upload/import failure** is **A+B**, owned by attachments/import UI and accessibility, requiring its own native-keyboard repair/round-trip before release or progression. Reduced-motion drawer return/source404/report target sizing are also open acceptance defects. New **A11Y-11 P1** initial mobile visible-page zero-width/collapsed content is also **A+B**, CV/rendering owner, requiring independent P5-15-04-CV-01; native PDF remains authoritative and this fixture page count matches. No broad remediation is hidden in this audit. Mandatory independent human reader and physical-device/software-keyboard acceptance remain unperformed; operator availability alone does not close RD06/07. Actual Chromium zoom adds bounded measurements, not all-action/all-browser acceptance. All production/provider/recovery blockers and P5-13 deferral remain unchanged.

 ## Current P5-15-02 — Responsive/accessibility audit successor
 
+**Owner update —2026-10-10:** screen-reader operator testing will be revisited later. It is logged as **NOT COMPLETE / NOT VERIFIED** in the [manual packet](p5-15-02/MANUAL_ACCEPTANCE.md#owner-scheduling-decision--2026-10-10), with mandatory acceptance retained. This scheduling decision does not change the audit NO-GO, production NO-GO or57-group preservation totals.

 [02 audit](p5-15-02/README.md), [native coverage](p5-15-02/TEST_COVERAGE.md), [findings](p5-15-02/DEFECTS.md), [reflow measurements](p5-15-02/RESPONSIVE_RESULTS.md) and [manual packet](p5-15-02/MANUAL_ACCEPTANCE.md) now supersede the prior “02 not started” statements. Application/API/renderer behavior is unchanged. Actual Chromium100/200/400 zoom is measured separately from touch emulation, screen-reader speech and physical-device/software-keyboard acceptance. Owner reports a reader operator available; actual results remain NOT VERIFIED until supplied.
 
 **P5-15-02: NO-GO for P5-15-03** on confirmed P1 keyboard upload/import failure and [initial mobile CV content clipping](p5-15-02/evidence/mobile-preview-proof.json). That fixture's page count matches its PDF, but its visible content flow remains zero-width; no false page-count claim is made. Reduced-motion drawer return, source-editor404 and small report targets also need bounded disposition. [57-group matrix](PRESERVATION_ACCEPTANCE.md) now reconciles **0PASS/50PARTIAL/6FAIL/1DEFERRED/0BLOCKED/0NOT VERIFIED** while retaining every historical status column. Separate UI-rule warnings/manual gaps are not automatically failures. Known failures are neither skipped nor expected-failing.

 This is an executable operator packet for the responsive/accessibility audit. **All human, screen-reader and physical-device results in this packet are NOT VERIFIED.** No operator, spoken transcript, real-device interaction or manual approval is invented. The checkpoint's separate automated evidence may verify particular browser interactions; it cannot fill the human/device result fields below. Production remains **NO-GO**. P5-13 remains deferred, unqualified and Production-withheld; this packet authorizes neither provider qualification nor its review UI.
 
+## Owner scheduling decision — 2026-10-10

+The owner requested returning to screen-reader testing later and logging it as not complete. **Screen-reader acceptance: NOT COMPLETE / NOT VERIFIED; operator session postponed.** An operator is available, but no actual spoken workflow results have been supplied. This postpones execution; it does not waive acceptance or change the audit/production NO-GO decisions. Other human/device checks retain their existing statuses.

+Resume with M01–M03 and the CV/Rules workflows, then complete the remaining applicable steps. Record the actual build, screen-reader/browser versions, device, workflow ID, expected versus observed speech, PASS/FAIL and reproduction evidence using the form below. The owner and authorized operator coordinate the later session; no date or automatic follow-up is scheduled here.

 This packet retains the thirteen M01–M13 areas from the [P5-15 planning script](../MANUAL_ACCEPTANCE.md), makes the current controls/routes explicit, and adds repeatable result forms. Binding sources are [Phase 3 accessibility](../../../phase-3/ACCESSIBILITY_PLAN.md), [responsive strategy](../../../phase-3/RESPONSIVE_STRATEGY.md), [P4-06 acceptance and evidence limits](../../../phase-4/p4-06/README.md), the [57 original groups and current preservation matrix](../PRESERVATION_ACCEPTANCE.md), [P5-14 responsive evidence](../../p5-14/README.md), and [R-03 functional reconciliation](../p5-15-01/analytics-auth-repair/README.md). Historical P4 package expected failures are historical: **P2-D01 is now an ordinary passing case**. No original requirement is rewritten by this manual packet.

 Representative screenshots are indexed with route/viewport/locale/theme/state and hashes in [fresh audit](evidence/fresh-audit.json); the mobile native comparison has its own [proof](evidence/mobile-preview-proof.json). They cover the13areas, light/dark,English/Bokmål, narrow/tablet/desktop, interaction failures and actual zoom. Automated screenshot review is not independent human acceptance.
