Dear Eval TF, Your accomplishments: Last July this Task Force published "Website Accessibility Conformance Evaluation Methodology (WCAG-EM) 1.0": - http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG-EM/ With support of European Commission (EC) funding (WAI-ACT Project) and contribution by the Accessibility Foundation, we were able to develop, through the WAI Education and Outreach Working Group (EOWG), the first version of the WCAG-EM Report Tool: - http://www.w3.org/WAI/eval/report-tool/ The full source code for this tool, issues list, and plans for future work is openly available on GitHub: - https://github.com/w3c/wcag-em-report-tool We also hope to be able to extend and where needed revise WCAG-EM in the future. Please continue to send your observations, thoughts, and ideas to the publicly archived mailing list: - public-wcag-em-comments@w3.org For now we will be closing this Task Force. However, there is lots of other interesting areas of WAI work that you are welcome to contribute to, in case you aren't already active in those. For example techniques development for WCAG 2.0, the mobile accessibility task force, and the cognitive and learning disabilities accessibility task force: - http://www.w3.org/WAI/groups - http://www.w3.org/WAI/grouptf Please let me know if you have questions about getting involved with WAI work or if you would like to learn more about contributing. I enjoyed working with you on an important piece of work, WCAG-EM 1.0.
