Re: Comments on "Web Accessibility is Smart Business" Presentation

Hello Shawn and all,
I am not sure I can answer all your questions. So I will only keep the 
points of Alan's message for which I can give my opinion and will cut 
the rest.

Sylvie: I think this sentence is easy to understand.

Sylvie: I don't know how it is in France, i am asking around and will 
tell you when I know more.
Best
Sylvie
