The Access Board's advisory committee on 255/508 (TEITAC) recommended that any new regs harmonize with WCAG 2.0, and the report's own proposed provisions themselves were pretty well harmonized, as Judy Brewer, Gregg Vanderheiden, and others from WCAG were on TEITAC. Expect Access Board action in 2009.

In general, is there a channel notifying about legal applications of the WCAG that I can subscribe to? Are the WCAG 2.0 already part of any law (US, EU, UK, Australia, India, etc.)? Thanks a lot MikeReceived on Friday, 19 December 2008 18:43:37 GMT
