Dear TAFEVC,

With the demise of TAFE Frontiers, I am hoping you can pass this along to
the appropriate people. It relates to the Web Accessibility tool that TAFE
Frontiers and Binary Blue have available at
http://www.binaryblue.com.au/access_wizard/.

The Accessibility Wizard is a tool for web developers and project teams. It
breaks down the WAI Checkpoints into individual tasks for each job role in a
development team. Every member of a development team is directed to
implement the WAI Checkpoints at a specified conformance level (A,AA or
AAA). This is a sure way of meeting accessibility conformance. A web client
that supports the Flash 6 (or higher) plugin is the minimum requirement to
use the wizard.
