Re: Way-finding systems

Sorry for my previous email... I hit send by mistake...

Hi all,

Continuing Vivienne's efforts I have updated the future challenges and
reasearch questions grouping them under 3 main themes. However, as Shadi
suggested (and I agree with it)... "the third item still focuses too much
on the aspect of interoperability in general, rather than to draw out the
questions specific to accessibility. It seems beyond our work scope."

So my two (actually one) suggestions are:

1. Delete the third theme (Interoperability of navigation and way-finding
systems) since it is out of scope and possibly include some questions to
the other 2 themes.
2. Try to focus it more on accessiblity which I think will lead to a theme
quite similar to the second one and I am afraid the distinction is not
going to be obvious. (It's not even obvious to me)

What's your opinion on that?

As Vivienne suggested input is welcomed but I see a great overlap with
Accesible Maps (https://www.w3.org/WAI/RD/wiki/Accessible_Maps) that Klauss
has started out. I think we can include much of its background in our text.
Klauss, is this ok?

Thank's in advance for your responses....

Regards,
Christos.
