Re: FW: Easy Checks - A First Review of Web Accessibility draft updated

Thanks for forwarding this announcement Tim.

"Easy Checks" is the updated (draft) document for what was previously 
called "Preliminary Evaluation for Web Accessibility" that we already 
reference from WCAG-EM. We need to update the document title in these 
references though.

I encourage you to read the Easy Checks draft document and send any 
comments you may have to EOWG. It is really an interesting approach that 
provides a useful counterpart to WCAG-EM.

Best,
   Shadi

The checks cover just a few accessibility issues and are designed to be quick and easy, rather than definitive.
