Dear Leonard, You know that EDRLab is deeply involved in the process of pushing accessibility in Europe. Accessibility is one of our pillars. WP and EPUB4 will both support a large set of accessibility features (mostly because the HTML content will be structured and tagged accordingly). EPUB 4 will *recommend* that publications are accessible. Daisy will offer ACE as a great tool for assessing and quantifying the accessibility of EPUB 4 and WP content. Still, I don't think that EPUB 4 will ever *mandate* (i.e. require) a certain minimum level of accessibility as defined by ACE; and this for strategic and practical reasons. But we'll see...

Things that the EPUB community today expects/requires, such as publisher information, rich accessibility, etc. that I would expect to see in EPUB 4 – but which are things that cannot be mandated in a non-curated publication ecosystem. This has all been discussed before and I expect will come up again in Toronto. > > Leonard >
