EOWG: Our latest version, as of today's discussion, and on which I'll be asking for feedback on from the WAI CG (Coordinating Group): What is Web Accessibility? ------------------------------- An accessible Web is one that can be used by people with disabilities, and also benefits other users of the Web. Web accessibility includes: - content that is presented in a way * that can be perceived, operated, navigated, and understood by people with disabilities; - software used to access the Web * that can be used by people with disabilities, * and that works with technologies that some people with disabilities use - software used to build Web sites * that can be used by people with disabilities, * and that supports creation of accessible Web sites; - technologies that underly the Web (HTML, CSS, SMIL, XML, etc) * that support accessible Web content and software.
