Re: Another automated accessibility testing tool --> design sheets + testcase files

Hi John, Hi everyone,

please don't get me wrong.
If I'd do my work on the wiki with a copy and paste approach, it would 
not be that difficult. I just use the projects to get inspiration and 
check for completeness and validity.

Recently, there was a discussion under the topic "Auto-wcag promotion 
and communication", which included developers of projects that are 
related with our work. Therefore I mentioned Tanaguru and proposed to 
invite them to share experiences and knowledge. I'm far away from trying 
to evaluate and copy any methodologies or tools.

Best from rainy Wetter
